Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Transition metal polynitrides, such as transition metal dinitrides, are a new group of materials, with unique physical and chemical properties predicted that are not found in conventional metal nitrides. A novel ultrahigh-pressure synthesis technique using an infrared laser-heated diamond anvil cell system has been developed for synthesizing thin films of these novel metal nitrides. Using this technique, we have successfully synthesized single phase thin film samples of transition metal ditrides deposited on substrates. The electrical resistivity and reflectance spectra have been also successfully measured at room temperature. Therefore, it is possible to elucidate various physical properties such as electronic, lattice, optical, and magnetoelectric properties using the thin film samples synthesized by the developed method. The results of this study can be regarded as a major breakthrough toward the elucidation and application of these novel transition metal polynitrides.
