  • Patent number: 12006210
    Abstract: This disclosure provides systems, methods, and apparatus related to boron nitride nanomaterials. In one aspect, a method includes generating a directed flow of plasma. A boron-containing species is introduced to the directed flow of the plasma. Boron nitride nanostructures are formed in a chamber. In another aspect, a method includes generating a directed flow of plasma using nitrogen gas. A boron-containing species is introduced to the directed flow of the plasma. The boron-containing species can consist of boron powder, boron nitride powder, and/or boron oxide powder. Boron nitride nanostructures are formed in a chamber, with a pressure in the chamber being about 3 atmospheres or greater.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 3, 2022
    Date of Patent: June 11, 2024
    Assignee: The Regents of the University of California
    Inventors: Aidin Fathalizadeh, Thang Pham, William Mickelson, Alexander Zettl
