▲ [23a-C101-3] Synthesis of Fe-silicides from Fe and CaSi2 powders in NaCl molten salt
キーワード:silicide semiconductor
b-FeSi2 has attracted attention for its potential as a thermoelectric and an optoelectronic material. b-FeSi2 layers were grown on FeSi substrates by molten salt technique using NaCl–NaF–Na2SiF6 and Si powder. In the case, Si atoms diffused into FeSi substrates to form b-FeSi2. Recently, metal-chlorides were used to synthesize Si- and silicide-nanosheet bundles using CaSi2 crystal as a template. The molten salt technique using metal-chlorides provides several advantages for developing structural properties of the nanosheets, by introducing a variety of compound nanosheet synthesis and surface modification. However, the Fe-silicide formation was not observed using FeCl2, and Fe-silicide formation process has not been understood yet. In this study, the formation of Fe-silicides was examined by molten salt technique using NaCl with Fe and CaSi2 powders.
