Synthesis of Nanoparticles and Nanotubes with Well-Separated Layers of Boron Nitride and Carbon

Suenaga, K., Colliex, C., Demoncy, N., Loiseau, A., Pascard, H., Willaime, F.·1997·Science

Abstract

Polyhedral and tubular graphitic nanoparticles made of carbon layers and boron nitride (BN) layers have been synthesized. These particles were observed in the soot collected on the anode deposit formed by arcing a hafnium diboride rod with graphite in a nitrogen atmosphere. Elemental profiles with subnanometer-scale resolution revealed a strong phase separation between BN layers and carbon layers along the radial direction. Most of these tubes have a sandwich structure with carbon layers both in the center and at the periphery, separated by a few BN layers. This structure provides insight into the atomistic mechanism of nanotube growth in the boron-carbon-nitrogen ternary system and may lead to the creation of nanostructured electronic devices relying on the controlled production of heteroatomic nanotubes.

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.
