Rietveld refinements of the x-ray powder diffraction data verified that the hexagonal structure(with space group P63/m, Z = 2 formulas per unit cell) β-Si3N4 remained stable under high pressure up to 37 GPa. Upon increasing pressure, β-Si3 N4 transformed to δ-Si3N4 at about 41 GPa. The initial β-Si3N4 was recovered as the pressure was released to ambient pressure, implying that the observed pressureinduced phase transformation was reversible. The pressure–volume data of β-Si3N4 was fitted by the third-order Birch–Murnaghan equation of state, which yielded a bulk modulus K0= 273(2) GPa with its pressure derivative K0= 4(fixed)and K0= 278(2) GPa with K 0= 5. Furthermore, the compressibility of the unit cell axes(a and c-axes) for the β-Si3N4 demonstrated an anisotropic property with increasing pressure.展开更多

The influences of carbon activity (αC), and the partial pressure of SiO (PSiO), CO (PCO) and N2 (PN2) on the Si3N4-SiC stability have been studied and the related phase diagrams have been constructed. Result shows that the lowering αC and PCO/PSiO ratio and the increasing PN2 greatly elevate the Si3N4-SiC equilibrium temperature. Some previously observed experimental results related to Si3N4 and SiC formation at different temperature from the gas phase reactions have been discussed and some guides for sintering and synthesis Of the Si3N4 materials have been proposed展开更多
