Abstract

Boron nitride (BN) nanocrystals with explosion (E) phase were prepared by a novel laser-assisted materials fabrication, i.e., pulsed-laser-induced liquid (acetone)/solid (hexagonal boron nitride bulk) interfacial reaction at normal temperature and pressure. Typical diameters of these synthesized quasi-spherical BN nanocrystals were in the range of 30 to 80 nm. Transmission electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction, and Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy were used to identify the morphologies and structures of the synthesized nanocrystals. Additionally, we proposed the formation mechanism of cubic-BN and E-BN nanocrystals upon pulsed-laser-induced liquid/solid interfacial reaction, in which both liquid and solid were simultaneously involved.
