Silicon nitride
The wide applications of silicon nitride, Si3N4, as a ceramic and refractory material and in the form of whiskers justify its inclusion here. It is a white, chemically inert amorphous powder, which can be formed by or by combining Si and N2 above 1650 K.
The two main polymorphs, α- and β-Si3N4, possess similar infinite chain lattices in which Si and N are in tetrahedral and approximately trigonal planar environments, respectively. Recently, a denser, harder polymorph, γ-Si3N4, has been obtained by high-pressure and -temperature (15 GPa, >2000 K) fabrication. This polymorph has the spinel structure (see Box 12.6): the N atoms form a cubic closepacked structure in which two-thirds of the Si atoms occupy octahedral holes and one-third occupy tetrahedral holes. The oxide spinels contained metal ions in the 2 and 3 oxidation states, i.e. (AII)(BIII)2O4. In γ-Si3N4, all the Si atoms are in a single (4) oxidation state. Another new refractory material is Si2N2O, made from Si and SiO2 under N2/Ar atmosphere at 1700 K; it possesses puckered hexagonal nets of alternating Si and N atoms, the sheets being linked by Si_O_Si bonds.
