OSTI ID:7192880
The I-II and I-III intermetallic with B32 (Zintl) structure have recently attracted significant interest due to their unusual properties and their use as electrodes in high energy density batteries. Studies of the electronic structure should provide an understanding of the macroscopic properties of these compounds. This work focused on synthesis, characterization, and spectroscopic analysis of the Zintl compounds. Phase characterization was done by x-ray diffraction. Densities were measured by the pycnometer method. The chemical composition was determined by atomic absorption and emission spectroscopies. One large LiGa single crystal was successfully grown. The structure of the valence band was studied by photoelectron and by Auger spectroscopies. The conduction band was studied by electron energy loss. Results are discussed. 89 refs., 61 figs., 8 tabs.
