The reaction between GaCl3 and Sb(SiMe(3))(3) in a 1:1 mole ratio at 1
10 degrees C in toluene leads to gallium antimonide, GaSb, which has b
een characterised by electron diffraction studies and EDX and elementa
l analyses. Microscopy studies (SEM and TEM) show the formation of nan
ocrystals with a predominant crystal size of 20-30 nm.
