摘要
Superconducting vanadium nitride （VN） is successfully synthesized by a solid-state reaction of vanadium pentox- ide, sodium amide and sulfur in an autoclave at a relatively low temperature （240-400℃）. The obtained samples are characterized by x-ray diffraction, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The result of the magnetization of the obtained VN product as a function of temperature indicates that the onset superconducting transition temperature is about 8.4K. Furthermore, the possible reaction mechanism is also discussed.
