Abstract

Graphite like C3N4 (g-C3N4) was synthesized facilely via the low temperature thermal condensation of melamine between 300-650°C. The results showed that the products maintained as melamine when the temperature is below 300°C. With the increase of temperature, the products were transformed into carbon nitride and amorphous g-C3N4 successively. The morphology of products was changed from spherical nanoparticles of melamine into layer carbon nitride and g-C3N4 with the increase of temperature. The photoluminescence spectra showed that the carbon nitride products have continuous tunable photoluminescence properties in the visible region with increasing temperature. With the help of steady state, transient state time-resolved photoluminescence spectra and Raman microstructural characterization, a novel tunable photoluminescence mechanism was founded systematically, which is mainly related to the two dimensional π-conjugated polymeric network and the lone pair of the carbon nitride.

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.
