Two-Dimensional Titanium Nitride (Ti2N) MXene: Synthesis, Characterization, and Potential Application as Surface-Enhanced Raman Scattering Substrate

Soundiraraju, Bhuvaneswari, George, Benny Kattikkanal·2017·ACS Nano

Abstract

We report on the synthesis, characterization, and application of Ti 2 N (MXene), a two-dimensional transition metal nitride of M 2 X type. Synthesis of nitride-based MXenes (M n +1 N n ) is difficult due to their higher formation energy from M n +1 AN n and poor stability of M n +1 N n layers in the etchant employed, typically HF. Herein, the selective etching of Al from ternary layered transition metal nitride Ti 2 AlN (MAX) and intercalation were achieved by immersing the powder in a mixture of potassium fluoride and hydrochloric acid. The multilayered Ti 2 NT x (T is the surface termination) obtained was sonicated in DMSO and centrifuged to obtain few-layered Ti 2 NT x . MXene formation was verified, and the material was completely characterized by Raman spectroscopy, XRD, XPS, FESEM-EDS, TEM, STM, and AFM techniques. Surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) activity of the synthesized Ti 2 NT x was investigated by fabricating paper, silicon, and glass-based SERS substrates. A Raman enhancement factor of 10 12 was demonstrated using rhodamine 6G as the model compound with 532 nm excitation wavelength. Detection of trace level explosives with a simple paper-based SERS substrate with Ti 2 N (MXene) as active material was also illustrated.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
