Oxidizing Hexagonal Boron Nitride into Fluorescent Structures byPhotodissociated Directional Oxygen Radical
JOURNAL OF PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY LETTERS(2022)
摘要
Modifying the wide band gap semiconductorhexagonal boron nitride (hBN) can bring new chances inphotonics. By virtue of the solvothermal/hydrothermal oxidationor functionalization, hBN can be converted intofluorescentnanodots. Until now, it has been a big challenge to drily oxidizehBN and turn it into brightfluorescent structures due to itssuperior chemical stability. Here, we report the oxidation ofmultilayer hBN intofluorescent structures by ultraviolet (UV,lambda=172 nm) photodissociated directional oxygen radical [O(3P)] in agradient magneticfield. The paramagnetic O(3P), produced in alow-pressure O2atmosphere, drifts toward hBN and then convertsit into boron nitride oxide (BNO) micro/nanometer structuresconstituted by BO, BO2, and O-doped hBN. For a properlyoxidized BNO substance, bright and photostable wide-band photoluminescence is realized with nanosecond-scaled lifetimes underthe excitation of UV and visible lights.
