A review of the works, in which the E‐phase of boron nitride had been obtained under various physical treatments, revealed that in all cases during the formation or isolation of the E‐phase the sample can be impurified with oxygen. An X‐ray spectral study of crystalline E‐phase obtained in the present work proved it to be a solid solution of the type BN1 − xOx containing B‐B bonds.
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.
