A comparison was then made between the research findings and empirical data. Additionally, calculations employing the ionic model (IO) based on the 5p state of In and the 5p state of Sb atoms reveal that 0. 5 electrons of the state of 5pIn may have been transferred to the 5p state of Sb atoms in order to estimate the charge transfer in indium antimonite (InSb).","PeriodicalId":509433,"journal":{"name":"Physics and Chemistry of Solid State","volume":"72 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139774938","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
