In-Sb (Indium-Antimony)

The assessed In-Sb phase diagram is based on the present evaluators' modeling
and calculations, with review of the data of [49Pog], [52Liu], [63Hal], and [
83Gor].
The mutual solid solubilities of In and Sb are negligible [52Liu] and have not
been experimentally determined.
Many investigators have studied pressure-temperature phase equilibria for the
pseudo-single-component InSb phase. The results of these investigations are
generally consistent. In addition to the aInSb phase, which is formed at
atmospheric pressures, three high-pressure modifications occur-bInSb, gInSb,
and dInSb. The melting point of aInSb (525.7 C at 1 atm) decreases with
increasing pressure at the initial rate of ~10 C/kbar, and the melting point
of gInSb increases at the rate of ~2.3 C/kbar near the L-aInSb-gInSb triple
point [63Jay].
[79Deg], [81Deg], [82Deg], and [83Deg] studied high-pressure phase formation
in In-Sb alloys of varying composition (~20 to 80 at.% Sb) at different
temperatures. From these studies, they concluded that in the pressure-
temperature-composition (P-T-X) phase space, InSb cannot be considered a
pseudo-single-component system. For a 50 at.% Sb alloy, they observed two
phases in equilibrium at certain pressures and temperatures in the single-
phase stability regions of gInSb and dInSb. This suggests that the 50 at.% Sb
plane in the P-T-X phase space cuts through the two-phase regions [83Deg].
bInSb at 38 kbar and 175 C was found to be stable from 50 to 55 at.% Sb [
83Deg]. They also observed several additional high-pressure phases in the In-
Sb system at different compositions.
Two metastable phases have been reported in the In-Sb system. [63Jor] observed
a cubic phase (p phase) in In-Sb alloys (containing ~70 at.% Sb) upon rapid
quenching from the liquid phase. [76Asa] also observed a cubic phase when
amorphous InSb was subjected to pressures of 4 to 28 kbar. [83Deg] found a
cubic phase with lattice parameters similar to those reported by [63Jor] upon
the decomposition of high-pressure bInSb (produced at 70 kbar and 350 C) at
temperatures <301> 15 C and atmospheric pressures.
[57Sem], [61Pal], and [65Gie] observed a g-type hexagonal phase in thin films
of In-Sb alloys produced by either quenching from the melt [65Gie] or by
sublimation of InSb [57Sem, 61Pal].
