Are thin films with a thickness in the range from (20 -100) nm still considered nanostructures?

Nanofilm is an ultra thin film in the range of (1-100) nanometers. If we get to that thickness, the properties will change and we can refer to this change in size. The question is, do we call that...

You have to find a phase diagram for this triple system, otherwise you can only guess

Philip Nash

You need a ternary phase diagram for Bi-Te-Zn. Springer Materials database has an isothermal section at 500C. There appears to be little solubility of Zn in Bi2Te3 and this compound forms an equilibrium 2-phase structure with ZNTe. However if your composition is slightly off the tie line between Bi2Te3 and ZnTe you will get 3 phases, either Bi2Te3+ZnTe+Te(liquid at 500C) or on the Te deficient side Bi2Te3+ZnTe+BiTe
