Carbon Nitride Materials

Carbon nitride materials require high temperatures (>500 °C) for their preparation, which entails substantial energy consumption. Furthermore, the high reaction temperature limits the materials’ processability and the control over their elemental composition. Therefore, alternative synthetic pathways that operate under milder conditions are still very much sought after. In this work, we prepared semiconductive carbon nitride (CN) polymers at low temperatures (300 °C) by carrying out the thermal condensation of triaminopyrimidine and acetoguanamine under a N2 atmosphere. These molecules are isomers: they display the same chemical formula but a different spatial distribution of their elements. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) experiments and electrochemical and photophysical characterization confirm that the initial spatial organization strongly determines the chemical composition and electronic structure of the materials, which, thanks to the preservation of functional groups in their surface, display excellent processability in liquid media.

Intermediate Phases

Single-phase BiFeO3 (BFO) nano-crystallites were successfully synthesized in the temperature range of 500  750 oC by a simple diluted HNO3 sol method. During the crystallization process no intermediate phases were observed. As an example, we studied the electronic structure and thermodynamic stability of the BFO nano-crystallites calcined at 750 oC by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The XPS showed that the oxidation state of Fe is Fe3+. The DSC indicated a novel exothermic peak at about 769 oC during cooling, which might be due to Bi2Fe4O9 or some other phases produced in the decomposition of BFO at high temperature.

Amorphous carbon nitride films ( a-CN x) were deposited by pulsed laser deposition of camphoric carbon target with different substrate temperatures (ST). The influence of ST on the synthesis of a-CN x films was investigated. The nitrogen-to-carbon (N/C) and oxygen-to-carbon (O/C) atomic ratios, bonding state, and microstructure of the deposited a-CN x films were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and were confirmed by other standard measurement techniques. The bonding states between C and N , and C and O in the deposited films were found to be significantly influenced by ST during the deposition process. The N/C and O/C atomic ratios of the a-CN x films reached the maximum value at 400°C. ST of 400°C was proposed to promote the desired sp 3-hybridized C and the C 3 N 4 phase. The C–N bonding of C–N , C=N and C≡N were observed in the films.

Mn3o4 Nanoparticles

AbstractHeating hydrous manganese (II) hydroxide gel at 85 °C for 12 hours produces Mn3O4 nanoparticles. They were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The particle size estimated from the SEM and X-ray peak broadening is approximately 32 nm, showing them to be nanocrystalline. EPR measurements confirm a typical Mn2+signal with a highly resolved hyperfine structure.

Free Solder

This paper aims to gain an insight into the correlation between the microstructure and surface composition of electroless Ni-P and its behaviour during soldering with Pb free alloys including Sn-3.8Ag-0.7Cu, Sn-3.5Ag and Sn-0.7Cu. Ni-P coatings with different P contents were produced through an industrial process on copper metal substrates. The surface morphology of these coatings was observed by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and the bulk composition was analyzed by means of Energy Dispersive X-ray analysis (EDX). The mechanical properties of the coatings were evaluated by nano-indentation testing under different maximum loads. However, to understand the behaviour of P in Ni-P coatings and deterioration of the coating surfaces during exposure to air, the surfaces of the coatings were also characterised by X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) for storage at different temperatures. The dependence of the solderability of Ni-P coatings on the storage time and temperature was investigated by wetting balance testing, using an inactive or active flux with or without an inert N2 atmosphere. Finally, the solderability of Ni-P coatings to Pb free solders is correlated with their composition and microstructure (e.g. surface characteristics).

Sol Gel Process

The ecandrewsite-type ZnTiO3was successfully synthesized by the aqueous sol-gel method using TiO2dioxide and zinc nitrate as starting materials instead of expensive organic solvent and metal alkoxides. The as-prepared nanopowders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential thermal analysis (DTA) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), respectively. The results showed that the calcination process of gel consisted of a series of oxidation and combustion reactions, accompanied by significantly exothermal effects. Highly reactive nanosized ZnTiO3powders were successfully obtained at 850 °C with particle size ~50 nm. By comparison, the aqueous sol-gel process was the most effective and least expensive technique used for the preparation of ZnTiO3nanopowders.

The possibility of plasmodynamic synthesis in the carbon-nitrogen system when using melamine as a precursor is described in the paper. The system based on the capacitive energy storage, which allows simultaneously powering the two opposite-directed coaxial magnetoplasma accelerators, is developed. The effect of gaseous medium in the processing chamber of the system on the synthesis product is investigated by applying such techniques as X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). It is demonstrated that an increase in nitrogen pressure results in the structural and morphological changes in the synthesized sample, which might be caused by the increased carbon nitride yield and a great number of the appearing C-N bonds.

Red Emitting Phosphor

A novel red emitting phosphor, Ca2SnO4: Eu3+, was prepared by the low temperature solid state reaction. X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed the formation of Ca2SnO4: Eu3+. Scanning electron-microscopy (SEM) observation indicated a narrow size distribution of about 500 nm for the particles with spherical shape. Under 396 nm excitation, the Ca2SnO4: Eu3+ phosphor exhibits novel red emission at about 613 nm which is assigned to the 5D0→7F2 electric-dipole transition. Furthermore, the emission transition 5D0→7F2 has been found to be more prominent over the normal orange emission transition 5D0→7F1.

AbstractCarbon nitride thin films were deposited on silicon wafers by pulsed KrF excimer laser (wavelength 248 nm, duration 23 ns) ablation of graphite in nitrogen atmosphere. Different fluences of the excimer laser and pressures of the nitrogen atmosphere were used in order to achieve a high nitrogen content in the deposited thin films. Fourier Transform Infra-red (FTIR) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were used to identify the binding structure and the content of the nitrogen species in the deposited thin films. The highest N/C ratio 0.42 was achieved at an excimer laser fluence of 0.8 Jcm -2with a repetition rate of 10 Hz under the nitrogen pressure of PN=100 mTorr. A high content of C=N double bond instead of C-N triple bond was indicated in the deposited thin films. Ellipsometry was used to analyze the optical properties of the deposited thin films. The carbon nitride thin films have amorphous-semiconductor-like characteristics with the optical band gap Eop, as high as 0.42 eV.
