Abstract:
Three-dimensional long range ordered hollow SiC and filled SiCN sphere assemblies were prepared for the first time by embedding low molecular weight pre-ceramic polymers of polymethylsilane and polysilazane into sacrificial 3DOM carbon templates which were subsequently burned out in air after pyrolysis under a nitrogen atmosphere.
