A new tetragonal BaCN2 polymorph was obtained via a simple nitridation reaction of BaCO2, and the Eu doped product showed a red emission with an extremely wide range of red-shift of the emission wavelength with decreasing temperature.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
