Ca3B2N4-hBN系中立方氮化硼的膜生长机制

 以Ca₃B₂N₄为触媒,在高温高压下对六角氮化硼进行处理,在六角氮化硼与触媒的交界处得到了被金属膜包覆的立方氮化硼晶体。这表明六角氮化硼到立方氮化硼的转变与人造金刚石的膜生长机制类似：立方氮化硼晶体在触媒与六角氮化硼接触处择优成核,在生长着的立方氮化硼与六角氮化硼之间存在着金属薄膜,该膜对立方氮化硼“基元”有输运作用。随着该金属膜向六角氮化硼区的推进,在其后留下生长的立方氮化硼晶体。     

高压合成立方氮化硼用的新触媒材料的研究

用不同合成体系制备黑色立方氮化硼的研究

 立方氮化硼（cBN）晶体随颜色的加深,晶体的晶形越完整,晶体尺寸也越大。采用Mg+hBN、LiH+hBN、Li₃N+hBN+B和B+Li₃N 4种体系分别合成出了黑色的立方氮化硼晶体。通过光学显微镜、X射线衍射、拉曼光谱等测试分析手段,从合成条件、晶体形貌、颗粒度及残余应力等方面对不同体系合成出的黑色cBN晶体作了比较。结果表明,不同体系的合成效果有很大差别。在实际应用中应该根据需要采用不同的体系,以达到最优化合成目的。     

六方氮化硼的振动光谱与立方氮化硼的合成

 以X射线衍射分析作参比，分析了高度三维有序到近乱层结构的9种六方氮化硼的红外和拉曼光谱，并进行了立方氮化硼的高温高压合成。光谱分析表明，随着晶性的降低，六方氮化硼的低频红外吸收峰的位置及拉曼谱线等基本振动光谱发生明显的特征性的变化，并伴随出现各自不同的次级光谱结构。合成结果表明，在触媒作用下，立方氮化硼的形成需要六方氮化硼原料有一定的结晶度，但立方氮化硼合成效果与六方氮化硼结晶度并非是简单的单调关系。对振动光谱和合成试验的结果进行了讨论。     

Mg3N2和Mg3B2N4触媒的研究

The effect of chemical composition of a crystallization medium on the cBN stoichiometry

Abstract

The effect of chemical composition of the crystallization medium in synthesis on and some properties of cubic boron nitride (cBN) has been studied. Cubic BN crystals with the lowest free boron content and a boron-nitrogen ratio close to the stoichiometric one are grown in a multicomponent crystallization medium in a Li₃N-BN system. These crystals are characterized by a higher strength and thermal stability.     

Peculiarities of spontaneous crystallization of cubic boron nitride single crystal powders in the Li-B-N (H,Be) system

Abstract

We have investigated the effect of beryllium additions on the kinetics of conversion of hexagonal graphite-like BN to cubic BN (hBN → cBN) as well as on the linear rate of cBN crystal growth in a Li-B-N (H, Be) system. Experiments were performed in the temperature range 1940-2080K at a pressure of 4.3GPa. With the addition of 0.25 and 0.50wt.% beryllium the activation energy of the cBN formation process is found to be 45.8 and 42.0kJ/mol, respectively. The resulting crystals showed p-type conductivity. The activation energy of the impurity carriers for the samples with 0.25 and 0.50 wt.% beryllium additions equalled 0.22 and 0.17eV, respectively.     

Growth and annealing study of hydrogen-doped single diamond crystals under high pressure and high temperature

A series of diamond crystals doped with hydrogen is successfully synthesized using LiH as the hydrogen source in a catalyst-carbon system at a pressure of 6.0 GPa and temperature ranging from 1255 C to 1350 C.It is shown that the high temperature plays a key role in the incorporation of hydrogen atoms during diamond crystallization.Fourier transform infrared micro-spectroscopy reveals that most of the hydrogen atoms in the synthesized diamond are incorporated into the crystal structure as sp 3-CH 2-symmetric(2850 cm-1) and sp 3 CH 2-antisymmetric vibrations(2920 cm-1).The intensities of these peaks increase gradually with an increase in the content of the hydrogen source in the catalyst.The incorporation of hydrogen impurity leads to a significant shift towards higher frequencies of the Raman peak from 1332.06 cm-1 to 1333.05 cm-1 and gives rise to some compressive stress in the diamond crystal lattice.Furthermore,hydrogen to carbon bonds are evident in the annealed diamond,indicating that the bonds that remain throughout the annealing process and the vibration frequencies centred at 2850 and 2920 cm-1 have no observable shift.Therefore,we suggest that the sp 3 C-H bond is rather stable in diamond crystals.

Formation and crystal structure of metallic inclusions in a HPHT as-grown diamond single crystal

One of the most important characteristics associated with crystal growth technology is the entrapment of inclusions by the growing crystal. Diamond single crystals prepared under high temperature-high pressure (HPHT) usually contain metallic inclusions. In the present paper, metallic inclusions in a diamond grown from a Fe-Ni-C system using the HPHT method have been, for the first time, systematically examined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDS) , combined with selected area electron diffraction (SAD) patterns, has been used to identify the chemical composition and crystal structure of the metallic inclusions. The metallic inclusions were found to be composed mainly of cubic γ-(FeNi), face-centered cubic (FeNi)₂₃C₆, ortho-rhombic Fe₃C and hexagonal Ni₃C, which may have been formed through the entrapment of molten catalyst by the growth front or through reaction of the trapped melt with contaminants in the diamond.

Electrical conductivity and photoconductivity of single crystals of lithium hydride

Nonactivated LiH crystals and crystals of LiH with Mg, In, Tl, Sn, Sb, and Bi impurities are investigated. Photoconductivity is found in luminescent crystals. The temperature dependence of the electrical conductivity and photoconductivity in the temperature range of 100–570 ° K is measured. Volt-ampere characteristics of the dark current and photocurrent in fields up to 10⁴ V/cm at various temperatures are obtained. Data is presented on the inertia of the photocurrent and its dependence on the intensity of the exciting light. Conclusions are drawn concerning some connection of LiH photoconductivity with the type of activating impurity, the absence of a connection with the brightness of the luminescence, and the specific role of photoconductivity in color centers.Translated from Izvestiya Vysshikh Uchebnykh Zavedenii Fizika, No. 10, pp. 94–98, October, 1971.
