Electrochemical Approaches to GaAs1-xSbx Thin Films

In this communication we report our attempts to extend this method to the preparation of GaAsxSb l_x via a thermally induced reaction of electrodeposited Ga with As + Sb alloys. The latter were obtained by a codeposition procedure developed by our group [9]. Since homogenous alloys can be obtained with virtually any As:Sb ratio, the method appears suitable for preparing ternary compounds of any desired stoichiometry
