Abstract

New structural relatives of graphite with the composition B_xC_yN_x have been synthesized from the interaction of boron trichloride, acetylene and ammonia at 400-700°C. A hexagonal layer structure type is indicated by X-ray and electron diffraction data. Binding energies of 1s electrons (ESCA) for B, C and N indicate that each graphite-like sheet is a composite of all three elements. The material of approximate composition B_0.35C_0.30N_0.35 is a semiconductor and is intercalated by both strong reducing and oxidizing agents.
