First Time

For the first time to the best of our knowledge, cobalt-chromium spinels CoCr2−xGaxO4 with different amounts of gallium (x = 0–2 with a step of 0.5) were synthesized via the aqueous sol–gel route as ceramic pigments. The phase composition, crystallite size, morphological features, and color parameters of new compositions and their corresponding ceramic glazes were investigated using XRD, CIELab, SEM, and optical microscopy. It was demonstrated that the formation of single-phase CoCr2−xGaxO4 samples was problematic. Full substitution of Cr3+ by Ga3+ ion in the spinel resulted in the formation of light blue powders, which yielded violetish blue color for the corresponding ceramic glaze.

Sol Gel Synthesis

In this work, nanoparticles of zinc oxide were synthesized; they were formed using the sol-gel method (citrate route) at calcination temperatures (Tc) of 500, 550 and 600 °C. For all samples studied, IR spectroscopy showed the presence of the bands associated with water molecules present in the zinc oxide and carbon dioxide adsorbed on its surface. The formation of zinc oxide phase was confirmed by XRD, which showed that from 500 ºC it had this type of Wurtzite structure. However, samples calcinated at 600 ºC have higher crystallinity. Crystallite size was calculated using the Scherrer equation. The Rietveld method was used to obtain lattice parameters a and c for Wurtzite cell types as well as cell volume and the ratio c/a of each sample. These parameters do not show significant changes when they are compared with values obtained from samples with different calcination temperatures. Electron paramagnetic resonance showed the presence of defects in the zinc oxide. Three signals with g values of 1.96, 2.00 and 2.04 were associated with oxygen and zinc vacancies. Defects in the structure disappear when the calcination temperature is increased. The sample that was highlighted with the highest concentration of vacancies has a mean crystallite size greater than 30 nm, and this may also be responsible for this feature.

Parameter Values

Magnetoplumbite-type (M-type) strontium ferrite particles with two stoichiometric ratios (SrFexO19; x = 9.2 and 11.6) have been synthesized via the sol-gel technique employing ethylene glycol as the gel precursor. The prepared samples were characterized using x-ray diffractometry (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), photoluminescence (PL) spectrophotometry, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy dispersive x-ray spectrometry (EDS) and superconductivity quantum interference device magnetometry (SQUID). X-ray powder diffraction patterns showed that the samples were single-phase with the space group of P63/mmc and cell parameter values of a = 5.88 Ǻ and c = 23.03 – 23.04 Ǻ. EDS results confirmed the composition being mainly of M-type SrFe12O19. The photoluminescence property of strontium ferrite was examined at excitation wavelength of 260 - 290 nm and significant PL emission peaks centered at 334 nm were detected. Both as-prepared strontium ferrites exhibited significant oxygen vacancies which were detectable via TGA where the sample with the Sr/Fe ratio of 1:11.6 exhibited the highest oxygen vacancies in its structure.

The problem of the crystallite size determination for nanomaterials from X-ray diffraction data obtained in asymmetrical GIXD geometry was analyzed. The studies were performed on nanocrystalline MgO powder prepared by sol-gel synthesis. The nanopowder was preliminary characterized from X-ray diffraction pattern registered in classical Bragg-Brentano geometry and electron microscope observation. The estimated crystallite size, calculated form Williamson-Hall method, equals to 5 nm whereas the lattice distortion is negligible (0.1%). The X-ray diffraction patterns were registered in 30-135º 2θ range using tunnel GIXD technique for the incident α angle: 0.25; 0.5; 1; 2.5 and 5 degrees, respectively. Additional broadening of diffraction lines originated from applied geometry was observed. The calculated crystallite size deviate significantly in comparison to results obtained from classical Bragg-Brentano data. Corrections for additional line broadening were determined, which should be applied for accurate crystallite size calculation in studies of thin nanocrystalline layers using GIXD technique.

AbstractReal 3-D sub-νm lithography was performed with two-photon polymerization (2PP) using inorganic-organic hybrid polymer (ORMOCER®) resins. The hybrid polymers were synthesized by hydrolysis/polycondensation reactions (modified sol-gel synthesis) which allows one to tailor their material properties towards the respective applications, i.e., dielectrics, optics or passivation. Due to their photosensitive organic functionalities, ORMOCER®s can be patterned by conventional photo-lithography as well as by femtosecond laser pulses at 780 nm. This results in polymerized (solid) structures where the non-polymerized parts can be removed by conventional developers.ORMOCER® structures as small as 200 nm or even below were generated by 2PP of the resins using femtosecond laser pulses. It is demonstrated that ORMOCER®s have the potential to be used in components or devices built up by nm-scale structures such as, e.g., photonic crystals. Aspects of the materials in conjunction to the applied technology are discussed.

Sol Gel Synthesis

In this study, an aqueous sol-gel synthesis method and subsequent dip-coating technique were applied for the preparation of yttrium iron garnet (YIG), yttrium iron perovskite (YIP), and terbium iron perovskite (TIP) bulk and thin films. The monophasic highly crystalline different iron ferrite powders have been synthesized using this simple aqueous sol-gel process displaying the suitability of the method. In the next step, the same sol-gel solution was used for the fabrication of coatings on monocrystalline silicon (100) using a dip-coating procedure. This resulted, likely due to substrate surface influence, in all coatings having mixed phases of both garnet and perovskite. Thermogravimetric (TG) analysis of the precursor gels was carried out. All the samples were investigated by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) analysis. The coatings were also investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and Mössbauer spectroscopy. Magnetic measurements were also carried out.
