Abstract

V₂O₃ and VN nanocrystals have been synthesized by the decomposition of the precursor NH₄VO₃ and following nitridation in an autoclave with metallic Na flux at 450-600 °C. X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) recorded the evolution process of the reaction from precursor NH₄VO₃ to hexagonal V₂O₃ and then to NaCl-type VN. In addition, the products were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM).
