Description:
A method is proposed to forecast how micrometric powders are converted on intermetallic nanocrystals by high-energy milling. Mixtures of MO-N or M-N as precursors were processed to obtain PbTe or PbSe. This transformation takes place by oxidizing highly reactive chalcogens such as Se or Te and reoxidation of PbO to form Pb complex chalcoxides. In the latter phases Te or Se share electrons to act as Te IV or Se IV , PbTeO 3 or PbSeO 3 . Once that state is completed, the reduction state manifests itself as an amorphous precipitation of phases. The final stage is traced as high purity nanocrystals.
