Abstract:EuS and EU2O3 powder samples were equilibrated with H2S-H2-CO2 gas mixtures in the temperature range 700-1500 °C. Since the sulfur and oxygen fugacities of the gas mixtures -as calculated from thermodynamic data -can vary by about 10 7 , EuS of different stoichiometrics may be produced. At higher oxygen and lower sulfur fugacities EuS is oxidized to EU2O2S. The border line between the two phases can be fitted by the equation log(/(S2)/atm.) = 2 log(/(02)/ atm.) + 48300/7' -9.3 and compared to border lines of o… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
