Inhaltsangabe:
- The pressure-induced metallic states of light elements attract significant attention, because of potential applications as high-temperature superconductor and high-energy-density material, especially for hydrogen and nitrogen1-10. Several semiconducting polymeric nitrogen phases with three- or two-dimensional sp3-bonded networks were synthesized6-10, but its metallic form remains unobserved. Here, we report the synthesis of a metallic polymeric nitrogen with one-dimensional feature (1D-PN) at 130-140 GPa and above 3000 K. Synchrotron XRD and Raman spectroscopy, supported by DFT calculations, reveal that it adopts an infinite arm-chair like chain with sp2-hybridized pi-bonds. Simulations predict a superconducting transition at 21.19 K under 113 GPa, higher than that reported in high-pressure experiments for non-metallic elements. At ambient pressure, this phase acquiring an energy density of as high as 8.78 kJ/g is not only kinetically stable but also thermodynamically more stable than cubic gauche nitrogen. This multifunctional property profile positions 1D-PN as a disruptive candidate for both electronic and energetic applications.
