Abstract

It has been found that a microwave discharge in liquid n-heptane leads to the formation of a solid phase in the form of carbonaceous nanoparticles. The composition and size of the particles have been determined by means of scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive analysis and Raman spectroscopy. Using electronic absorption and luminescence spectroscopy, it has been shown that the discharge treatment results in the formation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in liquid n-heptane.
