Fig. 3: Synthesis of other TiC-based 1D-MAX phases.
From: Large-scale conformal synthesis of one-dimensional MAX phases
a Schematic illustration of conformal synthesis for other 1D-MAX phases with tunable ‘n’ number and ‘A’ site atoms in ‘Mn+1AXn’. b HRTEM images of Ti3AlC2, Ti3SiC2, and Ti2SnC MAX phases nanofibers. Rietveld refinements of the XRD patterns of c, Ti3AlC2, d, Ti3SiC2, and e, Ti2SnC MAX phase nanofibers, where the corresponding Bragg positions were identified by PDF card #52-0875, 40-1132, and 29-1353. f, SEM images of Ti3AlC2, Ti3SiC2, and Ti2SnC MAX phase single nanofibers showing long-ranged morphologies. g TEM images of Ti3AlC2 and corresponding EDS mapping of Ti, Al elements. h, TEM images of Ti3SiC2 and Ti2SnC MAX phase nanofibers and their corresponding EDS mapping of Ti, Si, and Sn elements.
