“…In the PIMS carbon-ceramic multimaterials, C5 peak was more pronounced, similarly, to reported PAN-derived materials. [41] The N K-edge NEXAFS spectra revealed distinctive features denoted as N1, N2, and N3, corresponding to 𝜋* transitions from pyridinic-N, pyrrolic-N, and graphitic-N, respectively, while peak N4 originated from N1s→ 𝜎* transitions involving N─C bonds (Figure 3B; Table S7, Supporting Information). [39,40,43,45] The relative energy positioning of N1, N2, and N3 consistently supports the N1s XPS assignments (Figure S8, Supporting Information), although an additional feature, N4, was identified in the NEXAFS spectra.…”
