Synthesis of Crystalline Carbon Nitride Thin Films by Pulsed Arc Discharge at Atmospheric Pressure

摘要

The preparation of crystalline C3N4 films was investigated using pulsed arc discharge from mixed methanol and ammonia water at atmospheric pressure.The X-ray diffraction(XRD)patterns of the films prepared at a substrate temperature of 450℃ suggested that the film was composed of α-C3N4 and β-C3N4 crystallites.Raman spectra exhibited distinct peaks which are in good agreement with those predicted theoretically for C3N4 crystallites.
