Synthesis of Spherical Carbon Nitride Nanostructures

Zimmerman, John L., Williams, Robert, Khabashesku, Valery N., Margrave, John L.·2001·Nano Letters

Abstract

Carbon nitride spheres, with diameters ranging from 20 microns to as few as 30 nanometers were prepared by template-directed solid-state or solution reaction of cyanuric chloride or fluoride with lithium nitride. The electron microscopy data on the hollow spheres suggest their multiwalled nanostructure, built by disorderly stacked C 3 N 4 curved layers assembled from triazine rings and nitrogen bridges of pyramidal structure. The closed spherical shape of this form of carbon nitride suggests its use in lubricants, catalyst supports, gas storage, and drug delivery.

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.
