摘要
The possibilities of hexagonal boron nitride(hBN) and lithium boron nitride(Li_3BN_2) transition into cubic boron nitride(cBN) under synthetic pressure 5.0 GPa and synthetic temperature 1700 K are analyzed with the use of the empirical electron theory of solids and molecules. The relative differences in electron density are calculated for dozens of bi-phase interfaces hBN/cBN, Li_3BN_2/cBN. These relative differences of hBN/cBN are in good agreement with the first order of approximation(<10%), while those of Li_3BN_2/cBN are much greater than 10%.This analysis suggests that Li_3BN_2 is impossible to be intermediate phase but is a catalyst and cBN should be directly transformed by hBN.
