Synthesis and Properties of Zintl Metal Pnictides

本研究的主要目的是探索新的A+ı(MX)型三元化合物的合成，其中M是过渡金属。这些金属化合物的结构关系与著名的锌化合物有一定的相似之处。将使用各种技术来表征这些化合物。其中包括X射线衍射、核磁共振和红外光谱、DTA和TGA分析，以及电阻率和磁化率的测量。提出的研究是令人兴奋的，因为它具有开发新的高温超导体的潜力。

The primary objectives of this research if to explore the synthesis of new ternary compounds of the type A+ı(MX)!, where M is a transition metal. The structural relationship of these metal compounds are similar to some extent to the well-known Zintl compounds. A variety of techniques will be used to characterize the compounds. These include, x-ray diffraction, NMR and Ir spectroscopies, DTA and TGA analysis, and measurements of resistivity and magnetic susceptibility. The proposed research is exciting because it has potentials for developing new high- temperature superconductors.
