Emission centers in Ca1–xPrxF2+x (x = 0.35) solid solutions

Luminescence spectra of Ca_0.65Pr_0.35F_2.35 solid solutions are studied. It is found that, depending on the excitation energy, different kinds of emission centers appear in these spectra. An interconfigurational 4f ¹5d¹ →4f² luminescence is typical for single Pr³⁺ ions in tetragonal sites. Data on the structure of the solid solutions show that the emission centers involved in ¹S₀ → 4f² transitions can be attributed to Pr³⁺ ions contained in clusters.     

Thermal conductivity of single crystals of Ca1 ? xErxF2 + x and Ca1 ? xTmxF2 + x solid solutions

The thermal conductivity of single crystals of Ca_{1 − x} Er _x F_{2 + x} (x = 0.01, 0.05, 0.07, and 0.10) and Ca_{1 − x} Tm _x F_{2 + x} (x = 0.02, 0.04, and 0.06) solid solutions is studied in the temperature ranges 50–300 and 298–673 K. With increasing content of rare-earth elements, the behavior of thermal conductivity in these solid solutions changes from the characteristic of defect single crystals to glasslike. The concentration dependences of thermal conductivity for the two systems differ insignificantly.     

Phonon spectroscopy of submicron ceramic materials based on Ce1–xGdxO2–y solid solutions

The specific features of the kinetic characteristics of subterahertz phonons in ceramic samples based on Ce_1–x Gd _x O_2–y electrolyte solid solutions have been investigated in the range of liquid-helium temperatures. It has been demonstrated that the observed anomalies of the transport characteristics of thermal phonons in this system are caused by the formation of structural defects associated with the position of vacancies in the anion sublattice with respect to impurity cations. The activation energy of the two-level system Δ = 8.53 K has been determined from an analysis of the experimental results.     

Crystal structure and electrical properties of GdxMn1 ? xS and TixMn1 ? xSe solid solutions

Regions of the existence of sulfide Gd _x Mn_{1 − x} S and selenide Ti _x Mn_{1 − x} Se solid solutions have been identified. Their electrical and thermoelectric properties have been studied in the temperature range 80–900 K. It has been established that the substitution of Gd²⁺ and Ti²⁺ ions for Mn²⁺ cations initiates reversal of the type of charge carrier with respect to the starting compounds MnS and MnSe. The cation substitution in solid solutions brings about a change from the hole conduction (α > 0) characteristic of the manganese monosulfide and monoselenide to the electronic conduction (α < 0).     

Ion-electron transfer in solid solutions Rb2 ? 2xFe2 ? xPxO4

The rubidium monoferrite RbFeO₂-based solid solutions with the composition Rb_{2 − 2x} Fe_{2 − x} P _x O₄ have been synthesized, and their crystal structure and the temperature and concentration dependences of the total and electron conductivities have been studied. The introduction of P⁵⁺ ions has been found to sharply decrease the electron conductivity that prevails in pure rubidium monoferrite and, at the same time, to increase the ionic conductivity. The latter becomes dominant as the phosphorus concentration increases. The maximum rubidium-cation conductivity of the materials under study is ∼3 × 10⁻² S/cm at 300°C and ∼3 × 10⁻¹ S/cm at 700°C. The results have been compared with the previously obtained data for similar solid solutions based on rubidium monogallate and monoaluminate.

Synthesis and study of photocatalytic activity of nanoscale quasi-one-dimensional Ti1 ? xVxO2 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.13) and Zn1 ? xCoxO (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.3) oxides

A original method of synthesis of quasi-one-dimensional Ti_{1 − x} V _x (OCH₂CH₂O)₂ (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.13) and Zn_{1 − x} Co _x (HCOO)(HOCH₂CH₂O) (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.3) has been developed. The synthesis products were used as a basis for nanoscale extended Ti_{1 − x} V _x O₂ and Zn_{1 − x} Co _x O oxides. The compounds obtained and products of their thermolysis were investigated by X-ray diffraction, microscopy, IR spectroscopy, thermogravimetry, and chemical analysis; the shape and size of particles were determined by scanning electron microscopy. The good prospects of Ti_{1 − x} V _x O₂ and Zn_{1 − x} Co _x O solid solutions as photocatalysts for hydroquinone oxidation are shown.

Synthesis and characterization of ZnxHg1?xSeyS1?y quantum dots

This article describes the synthesis of highly water-soluble Zn _x Hg_1−x Se _y S_1−y quantum dots (QDs) in aqueous solution through a simple photo-assisted reaction between ZnSe QDs and mercury(I) nitrate dihydrate [Hg₂(NO₃)₂·2H₂O]. In order to deduce the optimal synthesis conditions, we varied several parameters, including the concentrations of mercaptosuccinic acid (MSA) and Hg₂(NO₃)₂·2H₂O, the illumination time, and the reaction temperature. When irradiated at temperatures below 80 °C, the ZnSe QDs reacted with the S²⁻ ions formed rapidly from MSA and the Hg²⁺ ions formed from Hg₂ ²⁺ ions to form Zn _x Hg_1−x Se _y S_1−y QDs through a process of photo-etching and surface combination. Under different conditions, we prepared a series of Zn _x Hg_1−x Se _y S_1−y QDs that emit fluorescence at the maximum wavelengths ranging from 405 to 760 nm. Inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry and transmission electron microscopy/energy dispersive spectrometry revealed that the content of Hg in the Zn _x Hg_1−x Se _y S_1−y QDs was greater when the synthesis was conducted at higher temperature. The Zn_0.88Hg_0.12Se_0.44S_0.56 QDs exhibit improved photostability than crude ZnSe QDs and possess long lifetimes (τ₁ ~ 38 ns and τ₂ ~ 158 ns).     

Noncentrosymmetric cubic helical ferromagnets Mn1 ? yFeySi and Fe1 ? xCoxSi

Two systems of noncentrosymmetric cubic helical magnets Mn_{1 − y} Fe _y Si (y = 0.06, 0.08, 0.10) and Fe_{1 − x} Co _x Si (x = 0.10, 0.15, 0.20, 0.25, 0.30, 0.35, 0.50) have been compared. The concentration dependences of the critical temperature and magnetic field have been obtained using small-angle polarized-neutron scattering and analyzed in the framework of the Bak-Jensen model. It has been established that, among the two interactions that play the main role in these systems, i.e., the isotropic symmetric ferromagnetic exchange and the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya isotropic antisymmetric interaction, the former interaction determines the critical temperature in the Mn_{1 − y} Fe _y Si system and the latter interaction determines this temperature in the Fe_{1 − x} Co _x Si system.     

Electronic properties of LiMn2?xTixO4

Ti-substituted LiMn₂O₄ (LiMn_2−x Ti _x O₄, x=0, 0.15, 0.30, 0.45, 0.60, and 0.75) has been synthesized using solid-state reactions. Their crystal and electronic structures were investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS). XRD data suggested that the lattice parameters of LiMn_2−x Ti _x O₄ increase due to the replacement of Mn by Ti ions. XPS results indicated that the substituted Ti ions were in +4 oxidation state; consequently, the normal oxidation state of Mn ions has been detected by measuring the binding energy splitting of Mn 3s states, which decreases with the content of substituted Ti. The valence band spectra suggested that the intensity of e _g level of Mn 3d orbitals increased due to the increase of the Mn³⁺/Mn⁴⁺ ratio.

Surface plasmon resonance response of Au–WO3?x composite films

Surface plasmon resonance of metal–dielectric composite thin films formed by noble metal nanoparticles embedded in a dielectric matrix offers a high degree of flexibility and enables many applications such as surface enhanced spectroscopes, and biological and chemical sensing. In this article, Au–WO_3−x composite films of various Au contents and thicknesses were prepared by the pulsed laser deposition technique, and their SPR responses were measured in the Kreschmann geometry, using a polarized light beam at 640 nm wavelength. Theoretical calculation of SPR responses based on the Bruggeman or Maxwell–Garnett model with the MacLeod general characteristic matrix method is in obvious discrepancy with experimental measurements but it is able to predict the trend in term of the dependence of SPR responses on Au content and thickness of the Au–WO_3−x films. The SPR responses of the Au–WO_3−x films when exposed to NO gas molecules were measured and the preliminary results indicated that gas sensing using the SPR responses of metal–dielectric composite films is feasible.
