Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of Nitrogen-Rich Carbon Nitride Networks from an Energetic Molecular Azide Precursor
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors showed that the carbon−nitrogen solids have significant sp2 carbon bonding in a conjugated doubly bonded network and showed that these powders have a glassy microstructure with large irregular pores and voids.
Journal ArticleDOI
From triazines to heptazines: deciphering the local structure of amorphous nitrogen-rich carbon nitride materials.
James R. Holst,Edward G. Gillan +1 more
TL;DR: The combined results clearly indicate that the moderate-temperature self-sustaining decomposition of trichloromelamine results in ring fragmentation and reorganization into a CN x H y product that contains predominantly larger heptazine-like structural building blocks, which has applicability to many other disordered carbon nitride materials that are formed via triazine thermolysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis of Refractory Ceramics via Rapid Metathesis Reactions between Solid-State Precursors
TL;DR: In this paper, the synthesis of refractory ceramics via rapid metathesis reactions between solid metal halides and alkali (or alkaline earth) metal main group compounds (e.g., Li3N or MgB2) is discussed.

Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis and Structure of 2,5,8-Triazido-s-Heptazine: An Energetic and Luminescent Precursor to Nitrogen-Rich Carbon Nitrides
TL;DR: The crystal structure of 2 verifies that the s-heptazine is planar and the azides adopt a pinwheel-like C3h arrangement around the periphery and the triazide 2 exhibits photoluminescence at 430 nm and rapidly and exothermically decomposes upon heating at 185 degrees C to produce a tan thermally stable carbon nitride powder with a formula near C3N4.
