الوصف: | In this contribution, we present a high-throughput method for the synthesis of titanium nitride nanoparticles. The technique, based on a continuous-flow nonthermal plasma process, leads to the formation of free-standing titanium nitride particles with crystalline structures and below 10 nm in size. Extinction measurements of the as-synthesized particles show a clear plasmonic resonance in the near-infrared region, with a peak plasmon position varying between 800 and 1000 nm. We have found that the composition can be controllably tuned by modifying the process parameters and that the particle optical properties are strongly dependent upon composition. XPS and STEM/EDS analyses suggest that nitrogen-poor particles are more susceptible to oxidation, and the extinction spectra show a decrease and a red-shift in plasmon peak position as the degree of oxidation increases. The role of oxidation is confirmed by real-time, time-dependent density functional tight binding (RT-TDDFTB) calculations, which also predict... |
