Semiconducting cubic titanium nitride in the structure
Abstract
We report the discovery of a long-sought-after phase of titanium nitride with stoichiometry Ti3N4 using diamond anvil cell experiments combined with in situ high-resolution x-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy techniques, supported by ab initio calculations.
