Gallium manganese arsenide, chemical formula (Ga,Mn)As is a magnetic semiconductor.It is based on the world's second most commonly used semiconductor, gallium arsenide, (chemical formula GaAs), and readily compatible with existing semiconductor technologies.
Arsenic is also a common n-type dopant in semiconductor electronic devices, and a component of the III–V compound semiconductor gallium arsenide. Arsenic and its compounds, especially the trioxide, are used in the production of pesticides, treated wood products, herbicides, and insecticides. These applications are declining with the ...
Shaft furnace magnetization roasting is a metallurgical process, mainly used to treat iron ore, so that in a high temperature environment by reacting with reducing agents (such as coal, coke or gas), the iron oxides (such as hematite, limonite, etc.) to reduce to magnetic iron minerals (mainly magnetite). The process is usually carried out in ...
Arsenic trioxide powder.. Compounds of arsenic resemble in some respects those of phosphorus which occupies the same group (column) of the periodic table.The most common oxidation states for arsenic are: −3 in the arsenides, which are alloy-like intermetallic compounds, +3 in the arsenites, and +5 in the arsenates and most organoarsenic compounds.
In classical electromagnetism, magnetization is the vector field that expresses the density of permanent or induced magnetic dipole moments in a magnetic material. Accordingly, physicists and engineers usually define magnetization as the quantity of magnetic moment per unit volume. [ 1 ]
The group 1 alkali metals and the group 2, alkaline earth metals, form arsenides with isolated arsenic atoms. They form upon heating arsenic powder with excess sodium gives sodium arsenide (Na 3 As). The structure of Na 3 As is complex with unusually short Na–Na distances of 328–330 pm which are shorter than in sodium metal.
Gray, or metallic arsenic, pictured under an argon atmosphere. Gray arsenic, also called grey arsenic or metallic arsenic, is the most stable allotrope of the element at room temperature, and as such is its most common form. [1] This soft, brittle allotrope of arsenic has a steel gray, metallic color, and is a good conductor. [2]
Arsenic is a moderately abundant element in Earth's crust, and although many arsenic compounds are often considered highly toxic to most life, a wide variety of organoarsenic compounds are produced biologically and various organic and inorganic arsenic compounds are metabolized by numerous organisms.
