Abstract

A glassy carbon phosphonitride material with bulk chemical composition roughly approximating C3N3P was synthesized through a high-pressure, high-temperature process using a pure P(CN)(3) molecular precursor. The resulting material (hereafter referred to as HPHT-C3N3P) was characterized using a variety of techniques, including X-ray scattering, pair distribution function analysis, P-31, C-13,N-15 magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopies; X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Raman and IR spectroscopies. The measurements indicate that HPHT-C3N3 P lacks long-range structural order with a local structure predominantly composed of a sp(2) , s-triazine-like network in which phosphorus atoms substitute for bridging nitrogen sites found in related C3N4 materials. The HPHT-C3N3P sample exhibits semiconducting properties, with electrical transport dominated by variable-range hopping. The high phosphorus content of HPHT-C3N3P (approaching 13 at. %) is associated with a major decrease in the optical absorption edge (similar to 0.4 eV) and a similar to 10(10)-fold increase in electrical conductivity, as compared to previously-reported P-doped graphitic g-C3N4 (0.6-3.8 at. % P). The HPHT-C3N3P sample is considerably harder than layered g-C3N4 and exhibits superior thermal stability up to , similar to 700 degrees C in air. These results demonstrate a remarkable range of tunable properties possible for C3N4-related materials through elemental substitution and provide valuable information to guide the design of new materials.
