The Gas Phase Reaction Crystallization Mechanisms of Amorphous SiCN Ceramic Annealed in Vacuum
Abstract:
Microstructures of precursor-derived amorphous SiCN ceramics under conditions of vacuum and high temperature (1300°C, 1900°C) were observed by transmission electron microscopy. The gas phase reaction crystallization mechanisms of amorphous SiCN in vacuum was investigated based on thermodynamic calculation. The results indicate vacuum heat treatment can promote decomposition, induces gaseous species (SiO, CO and Si vapor) production. Gas phase reaction between Si(g), SiO(g) and C induces SiC nucleation inside amorphous ceramic network. Free Si- and N- can not form Si-N-enriched regions and N- is discharged in the form of N2. The crystallization of amorphous SiCN in vacuum displays significant difference to that in N2 and Ar.
