Thermodynamic Properties of Bi2Te3, Bi2Se3, Sb2Te3, and Sb2Se3

  • Chapter
Chemical Bonds in Solids

Abstract

The liquid-electrolyte emf method was used to determine the values of ΔGT, ΔHT, and ΔST of Bi2Te3, Bi2Se3, Sb2Te3, and Sb2Se3 at temperatures of 503–533, 553–583, 530–560, and 430–485°K, respectively. The published (Se, Te, Bi, Sb, and Bi2Te3) and calculated (Bi2Se3, Sb2Se3, Sb2Te3) temperature dependences of the specific heat were employed to calculate the changes in the isobaric-isothermal potential, enthalpy, and entropy associated with the formation of Bi2Te3, Bi2Se3, Sb2Te3, and Sb2Se3 from their components. The Karapet’yants-Lauthier comparative calculation method was used to estimate the enthalpies of formation of BiTes (−8 kcal/mole), BiSes (−14.7 kcal/mole), and SbTes (−5.8 kcal/mole).
