Side-by-side silicon carbide–silica biaxial nanowires: Synthesis, structure, and mechanical properties
نویسندگان
چکیده
Elevated-temperature synthesis has been used to generate side-by-side biaxially structured silicon carbide–silica nanowires. The axial growth direction approaches @311# for nanowires with a high density of microtwins and is @211# for defect-free nanowires. The structure of these nanowires, their cross-sectional shape, and their structural transformation between a biaxial and coaxial configuration have been studied by transmission electron microscopy. The Young’s modulus of the biaxially structured nanowires was measured to be 50–70 GPa depending on the size of the nanowire. © 2000 American Institute of Physics. @S0003-6951~00!02347-0#

Synthesis and Photoluminescence Property of Silicon Carbide Nanowires Via Carbothermic Reduction of Silica
Silicon carbide nanowires have been synthesized at 1400 degrees C by carbothermic reduction of silica with bamboo carbon under normal atmosphere pressure without metallic catalyst. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy and Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy were used to characterize the silicon carbide nanowires....
متن کاملFabrication of Ti3SiC2-SiC max phase composites via in-situ and ex-situ synthesis
Recently, a series of three-component compounds with the combination of Mn+1AXn known as Max phases have been considered as a new material. One of the most important features of Max phases, is the self-healing property of them. The main reason for considering Max Phases is a unique collection of unusual properties including their metallic, ceramic, physical, and mechanical properties. One of th...
متن کاملSynthesis and characterization of silicon carbide, silicon oxynitride and silicon nitride nanowires
Several methods have been employed to synthesize SiC nanowires. The methods include heating silica gel or fumed silica with activated carbon in a reducing atmosphere, the carbon particles being produced in situ in one of the methods. The simplest method to obtain b-SiC nanowires involves heating silica gel with activated carbon at 1360 uC in H2 or NH3. The same reaction, if carried out in the p...

In this study, an industrial polycrystalline SiC tile was successfully sintered by pressureless sintering at 2150°C for 1 hour. The physical and mechanical properties of silicon carbide including density, hardness, bending strength, and fracture toughness were evaluated. The results indicated that the mentioned properties were 3.08 g.cm-3, 2503 HV0, 249.3 MPa, and 1.23 MPam0.5</...
متن کاملVapour Phase Growth of Silicon Carbide Based Nanostructures
Several techniques have already been developed for synthesising silicon carbide (SiC) material in the form of nanospheres and nanowires/rods. Here, we report the synthesis of a distinctly different kind of SiC nanostructure in the form of three-dimensional crystalline nanowire based flower-like structures and arrays of coaxial rods. Interest in such structures centres around the combination of ...
