NanoclusterNanoclusters are atomically precise, crystalline materials most often existing on the 0-2 nanometer scale. They are often considered kinetically stable intermediates that form during the synthesis of comparatively larger materials such as semiconductor and metallic nanocrystals. The majority of research conducted to study nanoclusters has focused on characterizing their crystal structures and understanding their role in the nucleation and growth mechanisms of larger materials.
TriméthylgalliumLe triméthylgallium (TMG), Ga(CH3)3, est un composé organométallique à base de gallium. C'est la source organométallique préférée en gallium pour l'épitaxie organométallique en phase vapeur (MOVPE) des composés semi-conducteur contenant du gallium, comme l'arséniure de gallium (GaAs), le nitrure de gallium (GaN), le phosphure de gallium (GaP), l'antimoniure de gallium (GaSb), l'arséniure de gallium-indium (GaInAs), le nitrure de gallium-indium (InGaN), etc. Le TMG est connu pour être pyrophorique, c.à.d.
