Pn. Wang et al., A NOVEL APPLICATION OF THE PULSED NITROGEN DISCHARGE IN THE SYNTHESISOF ALUMINUM NITRIDE POWDER BY LASER-ABLATION, Chinese Physics Letters, 14(12), 1997, pp. 953-956
Pulsed discharge of nitrogen was applied in the laser ablation synthes
is of aluminum nitride powder to provide more atomic nitrogen. Very hi
gh concentration of aluminum nitride was then achieved. The nitrogen d
ischarge plasma was studied by optical emission spectroscopy. Temporal
behaviors of the emissions from various species were observed and dis
cussed.
