On the Nature of Boron Nitride E‐Phase

Abstract

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.

“…5 and Table 3. However, there is no good accordance with the structure of intermediate E-phase obtained in explosive experiments by T. Akashi et al (62) and S. Batsanov (63,64). In our opinion this discrepancy arises from the intermediate BN phases diversity.…”

“…Static compression experiments on crystalline GeO 2 have concentrated on the high-pressure crystal structure [17][18][19] and phase transitions [20][21][22] . Dynamic compression experiments 1,2,[23][24][25] have also been carried out on germania crystals and glass. There have also been a number of theoretical studies [26][27][28][29] investigating the high-pressure behavior of the different phases of this material.…”

Synthesis and optical properties of purified translucent, orthorhombic boron nitride films

“…The typical XRD pattern of the sample is shown in Fig. 2, and the majority of the peaks were similar to the observations in the previous literature [4,5,7,9,14]. The data are analyzed by commercial MDI Jade 5.0 ( Table 1).…”

“…BN with mixed sp 3 -and sp 2 -bonded structure was first fabricated by explosive shock compression of turbostratic boron nitride [5], and named as explosion boron nitride (eBN). Since the main peaks in the corresponding X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern can be assigned to orthorhombic structure, the eBN is also called as oBN [6,7]. Thereafter, various non-explosion methods [8][9][10][11] have been proposed to synthesize oBN (eBN).…”
