In addition to the TMI and TMSb sources, cyclopentadienylthallium (CPTl) was used as the thallium source for the growth of InTlSb. CPTl is a solid with low vapor pressure at room temperature and sublimes at 120°C in vacuum (~ 0.1 torr). It has been previously used for growing thallium(III) oxide, a compound that has drawn interest with the discovery of high-temperature superconducting Tl-Ba-Ca-Cu oxide [54]. The thallium flow was introduced into the growth chamber without perturbing other growth parameter settings. This has lead to the first successful growth of InTlSb, exhibiting an extended absorption in the infrared [55].

Tl2O3 is metal with high conductivity and a degenerate n-type semiconductor with a band gap of 1.4 eV which have potential use in solar cells.[6] Due to the high oxidation potential of trivalent thallium, TlX3 (X = halide) solids are rather unstable.[7] Thallium(III) oxide is a highly insoluble thermally stable thallium source suitable for glass, optic and ceramic applications. Therefore, it is very important to be able to fabricate these nanoparticles using a very simple method. Due to the high solubility of thallium hydroxide in water and methanol, nano thallium oxide synthesis is difficult. Thus, there are only a few reports on the synthesis of nano-sized Tl2O3 using thermal decomposition,[8] electrodeposition,[9] and sonochemical[10] methods.
