Аннотация

Thermally induced intercalation of noble metals into non-van der Waals ceramic compounds presents a method to produce a new class of layered materials. We recently demonstrated an exchange reaction of Au with A layers of MAX phase carbides with plentiful combinations of A and M elements. Here, we report the first substitution of Al with Au in a Ti2AlN MAX phase nitride at an elevated temperature without destroying the original layered structure. These results bolster the generalization of the Au intercalation for the A elements in MAX phases with diverse combinations of M, A, and X elements. Furthermore, we propose crucial factors to achieve the exchange reaction: there should be a chemical potential for the A element to dissolve in or react with noble metals to intercalate; the noble metals should be inert to the initial metal carbides/nitrides; and it is necessary to choose the reaction temperature that allows balanced interdiffusion of the noble metals and A elements.
