Abstract
Magnesium diboride as a precursor with dual role of Nitrogen introduces a simple “decomposition-adsorption-deposition (DAD)” technique for the synthesis of Hexagonal Boron nitride microsheets (BNMSs) on silicon (Si) substrate at 1100 °C. The synthesized BNMSs has the apparent morphology like the white dispersed feathers on a plate surface with diameter in the range of 3–15 µm and lengt greater than 30 µm. All the BNMSs has the characteristics of h-BN lattice with an interlayer spacing of 0.34 nm. Boron and Nitrogen elemental compositions and h-BN phase of the synthesized BNMSs are verified from its characterization by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transformed infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and Raman.
