As an indication of the types of infonnation gleaned from all-electron methods, we focus on one recent approach, the FLAPW method. It has been used to detennine the band stmcture and optical properties over a wide energy range for a variety of crystal stmctures and chemical compositions ranging from elementary metals [ ] to complex oxides [M], layered dichalcogenides [, and nanoporous semiconductors The k p fonnulation has also enabled calculation of the complex band stmcture of the A1 (100) surface... 

Common teniiinology used to characterize impurities and defects in semiconductors includes point and line defects, complexes, precipitates and extended defects. These teniis are somewhat loosely defined, and examples follow. 

Point defects and complexes exliibit metastability when more than one configuration can be realized in a given charge state. For example, neutral interstitial hydrogen is metastable in many semiconductors one configuration has H at a relaxed bond-centred site, bound to the crystal, and the other has H atomic-like at the tetrahedral interstitial site. 

The advantages of miniaturization are now being exploited in areas beyond microelectronics. Adaptation of materials and processes originally devised for semiconductor manufacture has allowed fabrication of sensors (for example, pressure meters and accelerometers used in the automotive industry) (6,7), complex optical (8) and micromechanical (6,7,9) assembHes, and devices for medical diagnostics (6,7,10) using Hthographic resists. 

Phosphoms pentafluoride behaves as a Lewis acid showing electron-accepting properties. It forms complexes, generally in a ratio of 1 1 with Lewis bases, with amines, ethers, nitriles, sulfoxides, and other bases. These complexes are frequently less stable than the similar BF complexes, probably owing to stearic factors. Because it is a strong acceptor, PF is an excellent catalyst especially in ionic polymeri2ations. Phosphoms pentafluoride is also used as a source of phosphoms for ion implantation (qv) in semiconductors (qv) (26). 

As with any other fabrication process, masks are needed to define the features to be etched. It is common that the etch used for the semiconductor also etches the masking material. For this reason many different masks are used in etching, including photoresist, dielectric films, and metals. Masking can be a complex issue, especially when very deep etches (>5 fim) are performed with high aspect ratios (148). 

Tellurium Selenides. TeUurium selenides or selenium teUurides are unknown. The molten elements are miscible in aU proportions. The mixtures are not simple soUd solutions but have a complex stmcture. Like the sulfides, the selenides exhibit semiconductor properties. 

Tertiary stibines have been widely employed as ligands in a variety of transition metal complexes (99), and they appear to have numerous uses in synthetic organic chemistry (66), eg, for the olefination of carbonyl compounds (100). They have also been used for the formation of semiconductors by the metal—organic chemical vapor deposition process (101), as catalysts or cocatalysts for a number of polymerization reactions (102), as ingredients of light-sensitive substances (103), and for many other industrial purposes. 

Dyes and Pigments. Several thousand metric tons of metallated or metal coordinated phthalocyanine dyes (10) are sold annually in the United States. The partially oxidized metallated phthalocyanine dyes are good conductors and are called molecular metals (see Semiconductors Phthalocyanine compounds Colorants forplastics). Azo dyes (qv) are also often metallated. The basic unit for a 2,2 -azobisphenol dye is shown as stmcture (11). Sulfonic acid groups are used to provide solubiHty, and a wide variety of other substituents influence color and stabiHty. Such complexes have also found appHcations as analytical indicators, pigments (qv), and paint additives.
