Thinfilms of lithium-bismuth alloys were prepared by vacuum evaporation. The compositional variations of their crystallographic phases were investigated by X-ray diffraction. It was found that a newcompound Li2Bi was formed in addition to two known intermetalliccompounds, LiBi and Li3Bi. Moreover, the variations of X-ray diffraction patterns after heat treatment showed that this newcompound was

Electrochemical properties of some Sb or Te based alloys for candidate anode materials of lithium-ion batteries
Some antimony or tellurium based thermoelectric alloys have been prepared and studied as new candidate anode materials for lithium-ion batteries. It was found that some thermoelectric antimonides yield a volume capacity for reversible lithium storage more than twice that of state elf the art carbon based materials. Ex-situ XRD analyses show that the semimetals such as antimony, bismuth and tellurium in the semiconducting thermoelectric alloys are the active elements for the lithium adsorption. However, inactive elements are also necessary for an alloy electrode to ensure the electrochemical capacity retention during cycling. (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

High-pressure studies of Li3P, Na3Sb, and Na3Bi at room temperature show that these compounds undergo a reversible transition from a hexagonal phase to a denser, cubic phase. The lattice parameters of the cubic phases are determined at pressures of up to 9.0 GPa.

New compounds with the general formula A(x)A'(3-x) ByB'(1-y) (A, A'= Li, Na; B, B'= Sb, Bi) were prepared in the system Li-Na-Sb-Bi. Na3Sb0.5Bi0.5 has a hexagonal structure (Na3As type, a = 5.415 (A) over circle, c = 9.595 (A) over circle), and Li3Sb0.5Bi0.5 and Li2NaSb0.5Bi0.5 have a cubic structure (BiF3 type, a = 6.645 and 6.772 (A) over circle, respectively). The phase transitions of alkali-metal pnictides were studied by in situ x-ray diffraction at room temperature and pressures from 10(5) Pa to 9.0 GPa. Li3Sb and Na3Sb were each shown to exist in two polymorphs with hexagonal (Na3As type) and cubic (BiF3 type) structures. At atmospheric pressure, Li3Sb undergoes an irreversible alpha-beta phase transition at 650 degreesC, while Na3Sb undergoes a reversible transformation into a cubic phase at similar or equal to2.3 GPa and room temperature.
Turning bulk materials into 0D, 1D and 2D metallic nanomaterials by selective aqueous corrosion
A selective aqueous corrosion strategy was proposed for synthesizing low-dimensional nanometals through the dealloying of aqueous-favoring metals from their bulk alloys.
