Ternary antimonide NaCd 4 Sb 3 : hydride synthesis, crystal structure and transport properties
Abstract
Abstract A new compound NaCd 4 Sb 3 ( R m , a =4.7013(1) Å, c =35.325(1), Å, Z=3, T =100 K) featuring the RbCd 4 As 3 structure type has been discovered in the Na−Cd−Sb system, in addition to the previously reported NaCdSb phase. NaCd 4 Sb 3 and NaCdSb were herein synthesized using sodium hydride as the source of sodium. The hydride method allows for targeted sample composition, improved precursor mixing, and an overall quicker synthesis time when compared to traditional methods using Na metal as a precursor. The NaCd 4 Sb 3 structure was determined from single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction and contained the splitting of a Cd site not seen in previous isostructural phases. NaCd 4 Sb 3 decomposes into NaCdSb plus melt at 766 K, as determined via in‐situ high‐temperature PXRD. The electronic structure calculations predict the NaCd 4 Sb 3 phase to be semi‐metallic, which compliments the measured thermoelectric property data, indicative of a p ‐type semi‐metallic material. The crystal structure, elemental analysis, thermal properties, and electronic structure are herein discussed in further detail.
