Synthesis and characterization of (Bi2O3)1−x−y−z(Gd2O3)x (Sm2O3)y(Eu2O3)z quaternary solid solutions for solid oxide fuel cell

Sm₂O₃, Gd₂O₃, Eu₂O₃ triple-doped Bi₂O₃ based quaternary solid solutions were synthesized as a candidate electrolyte material using the solid-state reaction technique. The structural, thermal and electrical conductivity features of the ceramic samples were examined and compared by using X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), thermal gravimetry/differantial thermal analysis (TG/DTA) and the four-point probe technique (4PPT). The result of XRD measurements indicated that the (Bi₂O₃)_{(1−x−y−z)}(Gd₂O₃)_x(Sm₂O₃)_y(Eu₂O₃)_z (x = 10/y = 10/z = 5, 15, 20 mol % and x = 10/y = 5, 10, 15, 20/z = 10 mol %) samples have a stable face-centered cubic δ-phase and mixed phase crystallographic structure. The phase stability was also checked by the DTA evaluations results. The temperature dependent electrical conductivity measurements showed that the highest electrical conductivity was observed for the sample of the (Bi₂O₃)_0.75(Gd₂O₃)_0.10(Sm₂O₃)_0.05(Eu₂O₃)_0.10 system which has a stable and δ-phase was found as 6.67 × 10⁻³ (Ω cm)⁻¹ at 650 °C. This sample can be used as an electrolyte material in the solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) which is possible to operate at intermediate temperature ranges. The activation energy was also calculated at a low temperature range (350–650 °C) and high temperature range (above 650 °C). The values for the samples vary from 0.63 eV to 1.08 eV at low temperature and at high temperature they vary from 0.43 eV to 0.75 eV.     

Spectroscopy and laser operation of Nd-doped mixed sesquioxides (Lu1?x Sc x )2O3

We report on crystal growth, spectroscopic investigations, crystal field tuning, and laser experiments of neodymium doped mixed sesquioxides (Lu_1?x Sc _x )₂O₃. Crystals were grown by the Nacken?CKyropoulos and the Heat-Exchanger method. Emission spectra for several mixing ratios are presented. Cw laser experiments were carried out with a 0.35?at.%-doped Nd:Lu_1.82Sc_0.18O₃ crystal by using a Ti:sapphire laser as pump source, achieving a maximum slope efficiency of 47?% with respect to the absorbed pump power and a maximum output power of 356?mW at a wavelength of 952.7?nm. To the best of our knowledge, this represents the first continous wave (cw) laser operation of a Nd-doped mixed sesquioxide.     

Tunable growth of (GaxIn1−x)2O3 nanowires by water vapor

The tunable growth of In-doped Ga₂O₃ (Ga₂O₃:In) and Ga-doped In₂O₃ (In₂O₃:Ga) nanowires (NWs) on Au-coated Si substrates was achieved by modulating the amount of water vapor in flowing Ar at 700–750 °C via carbothermal reduction of Ga₂O₃/In₂O₃ powders with a fixed weight ratio. In Ar, only the Ga₂O₃:In NWs were grown, while in wet Ar the In₂O₃:Ga NWs were synthesized instead. The Ga concentration in In₂O₃ NWs decreased with the increment of water vapor in flowing Ar. The growth of both Ga₂O₃:In and In₂O₃:Ga NWs followed the vapor–liquid–solid process. The In and Ga doping induced a redshift and a blueshift in the optical bandgaps of Ga₂O₃ NWs and In₂O₃ NWs, respectively. The growth mechanisms and optical properties of Ga₂O₃:In and In₂O₃:Ga NWs were discussed.     

Oxidation of Si(100)2x1 and Gex Si1−x (100)2x1

High resolution electron energy loss Spectroscopy (HREELS), X-ray photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) and low energy electron diffraction (LEED) have been used to characterize initial stages of oxidation of Si(100)2x1 and Ge_x Si_1−x (100)2x1 surfaces. Different oxidation stages of Si were identified by measuring Si 2p core level shifts and characteristic vibrations of Si-O-Si complexes. The latter may be described in the framework of continuous random network models.Then,from the experimentally determined frequencies, force constants,average bond angles and bond lengths are determined. Complementary,marker experiments with atomic hydrogen as a probe in conjunction with HREELS were used to determine the local, atomic structure for different stages of oxidation from chemical shifts of Si-H and Ge-H stretching mode intensities, respectively.

Structural, thermal, and electrical properties of (100?x) ZrO2 (x) Bi2O3 compound

Composition (100?x) ZrO₂ (x) Bi₂O₃ (x?=?15, 20, 25) is synthesized by solid-state reaction method to study the effect of Bi₂O₃ doping on ZrO₂. The as-prepared samples are characterized by various methods. The X-ray diffraction pattern of all these samples exhibits three phases, namely, m-ZrO₂, ??_III-Bi₂O₃, and ??-Bi₂O₃. The differential thermal analysis curves do not show any phase transition/decomposition, which clearly indicated the stabilization of ??-Bi₂O₃ phase. The conductivity changes in all the samples are discussed in terms of different phase formations and their volume fractions. The microstructural and energy dispersive analyses indicate the presence of different phases. A maximum conductivity at high temperature (800?°C) was observed for the x?=?25 composition, i.e., ???=?4.21?×?10^?2 S/cm.     

Structural,dielectric and Raman scattering studies of (1− x )PbMg1/3Nb2/3O3– x PbTiO3 single crystals (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.38)

The X-ray powder diffraction, dielectric and Raman studies of the (1???x) PbMg_1/3Nb_2/3O₃–xPbTiO₃ (0?≤?x?≤?0.38) single crystals were performed in a wide temperature range. The results of these complementary studies revealed that with the increase in PT content, the relaxor behaviour transforms into the ferroelectric one and a sequence of different structural phase transitions occur. On the base of the structural and dielectric results the phase diagram was determined. In addition, these results were used as a base for the group theory analysis and interpretation of the observed Raman spectra. The Raman spectra were deconvoluted using the independent damped oscillator model. From this model the temperature dependencies of the wavenumbers, reduced intensities and line widths were determined.     

Entangled Eigenvectors of Scalar Fields φ1(x) - φ2(x) and П1(x) + П2(x)

We first demonstrate the precise Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen entanglement, which is inherent in quantum mechanics, in the context of quantum theory of complex scalar fields. We explicitly derive the entangled common eigenstates of φ₁(x) - φ₂(x) and П₁(x) + П₂(x) φ₁and φ₂ are two real components of the complex scalar field, and П₁ and П₂ are the corresponding conjugate fields) in the Fock space. The entangled eigenstates span a complete and orthonormal representation.     

Phase stability,thermal, electrical and structural properties of (Bi2O3)1−x−y(Sm2O3)x(CeO2)y electrolytes for solid oxide fuel cells

In this study, (Bi₂O₃)_1?x?y(Sm₂O₃)_x(CeO₂)_y ternary system was synthesized by using solid-state reaction method. Structural, morphological, thermal and electrical properties of the samples were evaluated by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy, thermo gravimetry/differential thermal analyzer and four-probe method. The XRD measurement results indicated that the samples (x = 10–15, y = 5–10–15–20) had cubic δ-phase crystallographic structure. The phase stability of the samples was checked by the differential thermal analyzer measurements, which indicates most of the samples have stable δ-Bi₂O₃ phase. The electrical conductivity measurement results showed that the electrical conductivity increased with mol% CeO₂ molar ratio at a fixed molar ratio of Sm₂O₃. The highest electrical conductivity obtained for the (Bi₂O₃)_0.65(Sm₂O₃)_0.15(CeO₂)_0.20 system was 1.55 × 10^?2 (Ω.cm)^?1 at 600 °C. The activation energies were also calculated at low temperature range (350–650 °C) which vary from 1.1325 to 1.4460 eV and at high temperature (above 650 °C) which vary from 0.4813 to 1.1071 eV.     

Transport and magnetic properties of bulk polycrystalline (YBa2Cu3O7)1−x(Nd0.7Sr0.3MnO3)x nanocomposites

We have prepared a series of bulk polycrystalline samples with the nominal compositions (YBa₂Cu₃O₇)_1?x(Nd_0.7Sr_0.3MnO₃)_x (x = 0–1) by a conventional solid-state reaction method using the larger difference in sintering temperature of the two constituent oxides and a well conceived sintering sequence. XRD patterns show that the samples are composites consisting of YBa₂Cu₃O₇ and Nd_0.7Sr_0.3MnO₃ particles with average grain size of ～65 nm. For x ? 0.55, with increasing x, the zero-resistance superconducting transition temperature, T_C0, measured at zero magnetic field decreases and the normal state resistivity increases rapidly. The T_C0 for the sample with x ～ 0.48 is estimated to be 0 K. The M–H hysteresis loops indicate the coexistence of ferromagnetism and superconductivity in the samples. The depression of T_C0 can be attributed to the proximity effect between ferromagnetism and superconductivity.     

Transition to gapless superconductivity in YBa2(Cu1−x Zn x )3O7

Point-contact spectra of YBa₂(Cu_1–x Zn _x )₃O₇/Ag are studied at various temperatures. The differential resistance dV/dI of the point contacts shows gap-related structures belowT _c which can be attributed to Andreev reflection. Evaluation of many spectra for each sample taken at 4.2 K yields a wide distribution of voltages /e at which these structures occur. The upper limit varies roughly as expected from the depression ofT _c by Zn-doping from /e=29 mV (x=0) to 9 mV (x=0.05), while the lower limit decreases much faster and disappears forx=0.05. Hence, the Zn doped samples exhibit a tendency to gapless superconductivity as suggested earlier on the basis of specific-heat measurements.

The correlation between the magnetic and electrical properties of the (VS)_x(Fe₂O₃)_2?x (0.9<x<1.25) oxysulfide solid solutions has been studied. The crossover of conductivity from the semimetallic to semiconducting type is accompanied by changes in the magnetic susceptibility, which are characteristic of the transition from delocalized to localized electrons. For x=1.25, a region of the ferromagnetic ordering has been established in the temperature range 90–120 K.

A longitudinal (1−x)Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-xPbTiO3 single-crystal piezoelectric transformer

In present work, a simple longitudinal piezoelectric transformer with the size of 16-mm length, 2-mm width, and 2-mm thickness was designed and fabricated with relaxor ferroelectric single-crystal (1−x)Pb(Mg_1/3Nb_2/3)O₃-xPbTiO₃. Both the input and output parts utilized the ultrahigh longitudinal extensional electromechanical coupling coefficients. Compared to the Rosen-type transformer, this transformer has the advantages of smaller-size, simpler structure, no spurious vibration, and no acoustic mismatch between the input and output parts. The electrical measurement results indicated that under the resonance frequency of 114 kHz, a step-up voltage of about 30 can be obtained under a 10-MΩ load resistance, which agreed well with the calculated results. Besides, the frequency and load dependences of this transformer were also systematically studied and discussed. The results indicated that this transformer has potential applications in the small-size high-voltage amplifier and magnetoelectric/piezoelectric-transformer composite transducers.     

Temperature impedance spectroscopy of (1 − x)Na1/2Bi1/2TiO3-xLaMg1/2Ti1/2O3 solid solutions

The dielectric properties of (1 ? x)Na_1/2Bi_1/2TiO₃-xLaMg_1/2Ti_1/2O₃ solid solutions (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.4) were studied over the temperature range 650–1030 K by measuring the impedance spectra over the frequency range 25–10⁶ Hz. The Curie temperature T _C was determined as a function of the composition of the solid solutions. It is shown that T _C decreases linearly with increasing x. The temperature dependences of the dc component (σ_dc) and the polarization component (σ′_ac) of the real part of the conductivity are found. The activation energy for the conductivity σ_dc is shown to increase abruptly as the temperature increases above approximately 770 K for all solid solution compositions. Over the temperature range corresponding approximately to the region of existence of the tetragonal phase of Na_1/2Bi_1/2TiO₃, the polarization component σ′_ac of the solid solutions, as well as that of the pure compound, is anomalously high at low frequencies, which can be due to structural inhomogeneities.
