Reports Outline Nanostructures Study Results from Korea University

摘要

2011 DEC 28 - According to the authors of a study from Chungnam, South Korea, "Quasi-aligned, high-aspect-ratio A1N micro- and nanostructures were synthesized under high nitrogen pressure by the exothermic reaction of an Al + 0.015 mol (C2F4)(n) mixture. Structurally uniform A1N micro- and nanofibers with hexagonal and cylindrical morphologies were obtained when the system temperature was maintained within the range of 1600-1700 degrees C. The fibers had aspect ratios as high as 2000, diameters in the range of similar to 0.05-20 mu m, and were similar to 100-1000 mu m in length."
