Zinc selenide nanoparticle has been synthesized using soft chemical routes. The particles were capped using 2-mercaptoethanol to achieve the stability and avoid the coalescence. The as-obtained particles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), UV–VIS absorption and photoluminescence (PL) spectra. The impedance studies were carried out as a function of frequency (100 Hz–1 MHz) and temperature (298–373 K) by impedance spectroscopy. An analysis of the complex impedance (z' and z") with frequency is performed assuming a distribution of relaxation times.


Perovskite solid solutions (La0.70Ca0.30)(FexMn1-x)O3 where x = 0.01, 0.20, 0.30 and 0.40 ceramics were synthesized by solid state reaction route. The structural studies were carried by X-Ray diffraction method and the observed results have indicated that all the prepared samples were crystallized into single phase. The surface morphology was studied by Scanning Electron Microscopy and the images have revealed that grain size has increased with the increasing concentration of Fe. Archimedes principle was used to calculate the density of all the sintered samples and the density values were observed to be in increasing order. The impedance and dielectric properties have been characterized at different ranges of temperature and frequency. The value of electrical conductivity were found to be more than 100 S cm-1 , which indicate that the synthesized material is suitable material for cathode of Solid Oxide Fuel Cell.

AbstractThe temperature (T) and pressure (P) dependence of dielectric and conductivity properties of natural leucite were determined using complex impedance spectroscopy at frequencies from 103 to 106 Hz. Experiments were carried out in a Walker multi-anvil cell at 1 atm and P from 2.5 to 6 GPa and at T from 350 to 800°C. At pressure >6 GPa and temperature >790°C the leucite broke down to kalsilite+sanidine and dielectric properties for this phase assemblage are given at 6.0–7.0 GPa and T to 1050°C.Leucite conductivity increases with increasing T and decreases with increasing P reflecting their different effects on migration of K cations within the channels in the leucite aluminosilicate framework. Activation energies for K+ migration in leucite increase with increasing pressure (0.74–0.97 eV; 70.0–93.2 kJ/mol) and activation volumes for leucite increase with increasing T (6.42–9.51 cm3/mol; 400–700°C). The latter data provide model K+ cation diameters increasing from 2.7 Å at 400°C to 3.2 Å at 700°C. These values are consistent with the earlier suggestion of Palmer and Salje that the ionic mobility mechanism consists of diffusion along <110> rather than along the main channels parallel to <111>.

BST ceramics with doping of 1, 3, and 5 wt.% ZnBO were prepared by the conventional mixed oxide method and sintered at 1100°. X-ray diffraction analyses were carried out to verify the structural properties. 1, 3, and 5 wt.% ZnBO doped BST ceramics were crystallized with weak tetragonal structure at 1100°C. The grain growth behavior and shapes were investigated by scanning electron microscopy images. The electrical properties of 1, 3, and 5 wt.% ZnBO doped BST ceramics were investigated by impedance spectroscopy at the different temperatures (350, 375, and 400°C). Impedance spectroscopy data presented in Nyquist plot show the existence of both grain and grain boundary effects in all specimens. 1, 3, and 5 wt.% ZnBO doped BST ceramics showed negative temperature coefficient of resistance (NTCR). Also, the capacitances and resistances of grains and grain boundaries for 1, 3, and 5 wt.% doped BST ceramics were simulated through equivalent circuit with the parallelly connected capacitors and resistors. The capacitance and resistance were decreased when temperature and ZnBO dopants were increased.

The combination of two components with uniform distribution in nanoscale is expected to facilitate wider applications of the material. In this study, polyaniline (PAn) and polyaniline/montmorillonite (Mt) nanocomposite were prepared by solid reaction using persulfate of ammonium as oxidant. The phase composition and morphology of the nanocomposite were characterized by FTIR, UV-visible spectroscopy, X-ray diffractometer, thermal gravimetric analysis, and scanning electron microscopy. The electrical and dielectric properties were determined using spectroscopy impedance. The analysis of UV-visible and FTIR spectroscopy demonstrated that aniline chloride has been polymerized into PAn in its conducting emeraldine form. Thermogravimetric analysis suggested that PAn chains intercalated in the clay host are more thermally stable than those of free PAn prepared by solid-solid reaction. Electrical measurements were carried out using the complex impedance technique in the frequency range of 10−2to 104 Hz at different temperatures. The ac conductivity data of different nanocomposites were analyzed as a function of frequency and temperature. It has been found that the incorporation of inorganic clay phase into polyaniline matrix has an effect on the electrical and dielectric properties of the nanomaterial.

In this work, the influence of zinc doping on structural and dielectric properties of CaCu(3-x)ZnxTi4O12 (CCZxTO with x = 0, 2.5, 5, 7.5, 10, 12.5 and 15%) ceramics sintered at 1000 ºC for 8 h was studied. The ceramic samples were prepared by the conventional solid-state and calcined at 1050 ºC for 4 h. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis of pure and Zn-doped CCTO were analyzed by using Rietveld refinement with cubic CCTO phase with no trace impurity phase. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) investigation showed that for Zn-doped CCTO, the grains distributions were homogenous with average sizes which decreased with increasing of Zn concentration. The dielectric permittivity as function of temperature showed two dielectric anomalies (weakly and strong) and the dielectric constant value largely decreased for x = 2.5%, which is about tree magnitude smaller than the pure ceramic. Then it increased and reached a maximum at x = 10%, which is larger than the value of pure ceramic. And for x > 10%, the dielectric constant decreased for about two magnitude smaller than the ceramic at x = 10%. The cole-cole diagramm for all the samples showed existence of two semi-arcs attributed to the grains and grains boundaries. It was found that the Rg values were much smaller than the Rgb value. This give an evidance on the formation of interior barrier layer capacity (IBLC).

ZnO-based ceramic varistors have shown excellent electrical and dielectric properties due to their characteristics microstructures represented by the arrangement of their grains and grain boundaries that allow the absorption and flow of energy when subjected to an electrical surge. Their properties and characteristics depend on their chemical compositions and processing routes. Typical processing routes involve several stages of grinding and precalcination—which are time consuming processes. Because of this, this study proposes a simpler and cheaper alternative route for processing ceramic varistors. The alternative process proposed is the mixing of the precursor oxides by means of a hydrothermal treatment. The characteristics and properties of the synthesized ceramic varistors were evaluated by means of scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction and impedance spectroscopy, considering the effect of the addition of rare earth oxides (La2O3, CeO2 and Nd2O3). The results showed that the mixing of the oxides through hydrothermal treatment produces ceramic varistors with characteristics and properties similar to those obtained by other processing routes. Furthermore, it was observed that the addition of rare earth oxides affects the characteristics and properties of the ceramic varistor depending on the type of rare earth oxide added, its concentration and ionic radius.

It is important to develop a new special material to meet the requirement of advanced industry. The BST (Ba0.8Sr0.2TiO3) ceramics doped La2O3 and Sm2O3 was fabricated by the conventional method, and was tested by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Complex Impedance Testing Instrument, LCR Tester with temperature controlling systems. The results indicate that dielectric property of BST-based ceramics doped 0.05 mol% La2O3 and 0.2 mol% Sm2O3 simultaneously is the best, and Sm2O3 had applications of removing Tc of matrix material to a low temperature and making peak wider. The calcining temperature of samples was 1280 °C.
