Versatile behavior upon intercalation by chemical vapor transport of lanthanide trichlorides into graphite
Source abstract
Abstract
Abstract Lanthanide trichlorides which hardly react with graphite have been moved into the latter by chemical vapor transport (CVT) thanks to a gaseous complex LnAl 3 Cl 12 resulting from the reaction between LnCl 3 and AlCl 3 . This complex molecule also allows the intercalation of LnCl 3 into graphite, AlCl 3 playing the role of a gaseous medium and/or co-intercalated species, depending on the structure of the pristine chloride. Well-defined stage-2 to 4 graphite intercalation compounds (GICs) have been synthesized by this CVT method, but efforts to get richer stage-1 compounds are still in progress. The 0 0 l structural study of stage-2 GICs performed by XRD reveals that interplanar distances of LnCl 3 -GICs are higher than those classically observed for intercalated transition metal chlorides. The composition of all the stage-2 compounds studied has been established and ternary C-LnCl 3 –AlCl 3 compounds with a significant excess of chlorine have been observed. The 2D structures of the different LnCl 3 -GICs have been characterized by X-ray or electron diffraction and show that structural differences are noted between pristine and intercalated LnCl 3 .
