Abstract
In this study, a single-step combustion process for the synthesis 1-D, 2-D, and 3-D micro and nanostructures of AlN was developed. The structures were grown by combustion of Al+kAlF3 (or ZnF2)+mNH4Cl reaction mixture under 4.0 MPa nitrogen atmosphere. Based on experimental data, the growth conditions, morphology, and composition, optical, and thermal properties of AlN micro and nanostructures were determined. The formation of structures was associated with the combustion temperature, liquid and gas-phase reactions, and the type of additives used in the experiments. The new insight, we gleaned from this study may help in the selective growth of AlN micro and nanostructures of different morphology, enhancing their functionality.
