Ion exchange synthesizes layered polymorphs of MgZrN and MgHfN, two metastable semiconductors

Christopher L. Rom, Matthew Jankousky, Maxwell Q. Phan +5

The synthesis of ternary nitrides is uniquely difficult, in large part because elemental N is relatively inert. However, lithium reacts readily with other metals and N, mak…
