Abstract
The possibility of replacing iron with cobalt in iron disilicide is studied. It has been shown that, in a wide range of compositions, an attempt to replace iron with cobalt leads to the formation of cobalt silicides. Using the composition Fe0.98Co0.015Si2 as an example, it is shown that during the directional crystallization and subsequent annealing of samples, a regular microstructure is formed. Anisotropy of thermoelectric properties is observed along and across the crystallization axis of the sample. In the region of low cobalt concentrations, upon transition to pure β-FeSi2, the sign and magnitude of thermopower change sharply.
期刊介绍:
Journal of Surface Investigation: X-ray, Synchrotron and Neutron Techniques publishes original articles on the topical problems of solid-state physics, materials science, experimental techniques, condensed media, nanostructures, surfaces of thin films, and phase boundaries: geometric and energetical structures of surfaces, the methods of computer simulations; physical and chemical properties and their changes upon radiation and other treatments; the methods of studies of films and surface layers of crystals (XRD, XPS, synchrotron radiation, neutron and electron diffraction, electron microscopic, scanning tunneling microscopic, atomic force microscopic studies, and other methods that provide data on the surfaces and thin films). Articles related to the methods and technics of structure studies are the focus of the journal. The journal accepts manuscripts of regular articles and reviews in English or Russian language from authors of all countries. All manuscripts are peer-reviewed.
