We have developed colloidal synthesis methods to create nanoparticles (NPs) of tantalum nitride. The particle sizes and crystallinity can be controlled through the use of different organic solvents and reaction times; we demonstrate here NPs ranging in size from 2 to 23 nm. While electron microscopy and selected area diffraction demonstrate the synthesis of NPs of tantalum nitride (which may be partially oxidized), results from X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy reveal that the majority of the tantalum in our sample is present as an unidentified molecular-scale oxide species.
