Abstract:The effect of the production temperature on the morphology and structure of Si 3 N 4 nanofibers was investigated. It was shown that nanofibers produced in the temperature range of 1340-1360°C are amorphous while those produced at 1380°C and above are monocrystalline. Apart from the principal phase (á-Si 3 N 4 ) the imide Si 2 N 2 NH was also found in the reaction products.Silicon nitride Si 3 N 4 has a set of useful working parameters (high values for the hardness, strength, Young modulus, resistance to creep … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
