Amorphous Antimony in Thin Films

Polarization curves i were removed galvanostatically in an inert gas atmosphere with stirring against a saturated cacalomel reference electrode. Cathode – Pt polished plate area 1sm 2 , all  related to normal hydrogen. Analysis – amperometric titration by [2]. The cathode space was separated from the anode from anodic porous partitions. The current output was determined by weighing the cathode. Total Q passing through the cell, electricity controlled copper Q-meter with a solution of Eitel. Reflectance R of films was measured on a GOI reflectometer with Se photocell, vacuum deposition was carried out at specified distances from the crucible with Sb heated by a spiral from W to substrates of transparent polished SiO2 for adhesion, the Color of the amorphous film treated with a weak solution of SnCl2and its transition to a brilliant α Sb Was noted visually. The electrical conductivity of the film during the transition from amorphous to crystalline state changed ~ 500 times.
