Co1Sc2Tl1
Co1Sc2Tl1 is a semimetallic ternary intermetallic compound containing cobalt, scandium, and thallium.
About Co1Sc2Tl1
Co1Sc2Tl1 is a ternary intermetallic compound composed of cobalt, scandium, and thallium. Its electronic structure exhibits a semimetallic character, placing it in a unique position between traditional metallic alloys and semiconducting materials.
Due to its position above the thermodynamic hull, this material is considered metastable, which makes it a subject of significant interest for structural analysis and phase stability studies. It is frequently examined in computational databases to understand the formation of complex ternary phases.
Key Properties
Cross-validated computational properties for Co1Sc2Tl1, aggregated across 2 databases.
Band GapEnergy needed to move an electron from the valence band to the conduction band. Lower or zero values tend to behave more metallic; larger gaps are more insulating or semiconducting.
Energy Above HullThermodynamic distance from the most stable set of competing phases. 0 eV/atom is on the convex hull; small positive values may still be experimentally accessible.
