In order to investigate the crystal structure and morphology of perovskite manganite materials, we have been successfully synthesized LaMnO3 and La0,8Ca0,2MnO3 systems through ultrasonic mixing method. The application of these materials is the alternative cooler technology beside freon gas using with residual emission gas. Stoichiometric mixture of La2O3, MnCO3, and CaO with more than 95 % purity were be prepared by ultrasonic mixing 40 kHz 60 watts for 30 minutes to result homogen mixtures. The samples were calcinated at 800°C for 1 h and sintered at 1100°C for 3 h. The structure of the samples was examined by X-ray diffractometer (XRD) Phillips and result as single phase of perovskite manganite materials. Morphology was studied using a 5310LV Jeol scanning electron microscope (SEM) that show the same grains of perovskite manganite material. While Ca substituted for La in the sample, the grain size decreases with decreasing the volume of cell units and finally the particle size of La0.8Ca0.2MnO3 phase decreases.

In this study, the effect of bismuth content on the crystal structure and morphology of bismuth silicate ( BSO:Bi 4 Si 3 O 12) polycrystals were investigated with X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and scanning electron microscope (SEM). BSO materials have been successfully prepared by the solid-state reaction. The BSO phase was crystallized at 950°C for 12 h. In summary, 10% of excess bismuth was found to be the optimum composition with respect to crystallization, morphology, and grain size.

BaBi4-xLaxTi4O15 (BBLT) ceramics were prepared by conventional solid phase sintering ceramics processing technology. The crystal structure and the microstructure were detected by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM). The XRD analyses show that La3+ ions doping did not change the crystal structure of BBT ceramics. The sintering temperature increased from 1120°C to 1150°C with increasing Lanthanum content from 0 to 0.5, but it widened the sintering temperature range from 20°C to 50°C and refined the grain size of the BBT ceramic. Additionally, polarization treatment was performed and finally piezoelectric property was measured. As a result, the piezoelectric constant d33 of the 0.1at.% doped BBLT ceramics reached its highest value about 22pc/N at polarizing electric field of 8kV/mm and polarizing temperature of 120°C for 30min.

NdSr 2 RuCu 2 O x material has been prepared as polycrystalline powder by solid state reaction. The compound has been investigated by synchrotron x-ray powder diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The experimental results show that the average crystal structure is a disordered cubic perovskite with Nd and Sr cations occupying the same site and the same substitution is found for Cu and Ru atoms. A comparison between the crystal structure and morphology of this compound and the superconducting tetragonal GdSr 2 RuCu 2 O 8 is also discussed.

Nanocrystalline barium zirconium titanate, BaZr0.4Ti0.6O3, was synthesized successfully via the sonochemical process. The effects of reaction time on the precipitation of Ba(Zr,Ti)O3 particles were investigated briefly. The crystal structure as well as molecular vibrations and morphology were investigated. X-ray diffraction indicated that the powders exhibited a single phase perovskite structure, without the presence of pyrochlore or unwanted phases at the reaction time of 60 min. Nanocrystals were formed before being oriented and aggregated into large particles in aqueous solution under ultrasonic irradiation. A scanning electron microscopy (SEM) photograph showed the BZT powder as spherical in shape with uniform nanosized features.

The as-cast Ni-W alloys with 15wt%W, 25wt%W and 30wt%W were annealed in hydrogen at 1100. The effect of the annealing time on the microstructure of Ni-W alloys was studied, and the phase constituents and microstructure of annealed Ni-W alloys were characterized by the X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results showed that no any phase changed for Ni-15%W, Ni-25%W and Ni-30%W alloys annealed for 60 min, 90 min and 150 min, which were still consisted of single-phase Ni (W) solid solution. However, microstructure had a significant change after annealing. With increase of annealing time, the microstructure of Ni-15%W alloy became more uniform after annealing for 90 min, and the average grain size was 95μm, whereas the grain size of Ni-15%W alloy increased significantly after annealing for 150 min. For Ni-25%W and Ni-30%W, there was no obvious change on the grain size with increase of annealing time, and the amount of oxides at grain boundaries gradually reduced. After annealing for 150 min, the impurities at grain boundaries almost disappeared. Subsequently, the annealing at 1100 for 150 min was beneficial for the desired microstructure of Ni-25%W and Ni-30%W alloys.

Single phase AlN nanowires are fabricated by a sublimation method. They were characterized by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), typical selected area electron diffraction (SAED) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The SEM and TEM images show that most of the nanowires have diameters of about 10–60 nm. The crystal structure of AlN nanowires revealed by XRD, SAED and HRTEM shows the AlN nanowires have a wurtzite structure.

Abstract Un-doped and ZnAlxO(1.5x + 1):0.1% Tb3+ (ZAOT) nano-powders were synthesized via citrate sol-gel method. The Alx moles were varied in the range of 0.25 ≤ x ≤ 5.0. The X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) data revealed that for the x < 1.5, the prepared samples crystal structure consists of mixed phases of the cubic ZnAl2O4 and hexagonal ZnO phases, while for the x ≥ 1.5 the structure consists of single phase of cubic ZnAl2O4. This was confirmed by the Raman and Fourier-Transform Infrared (FTIR) vibrational spectroscopy. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that varying Alx moles influences the morphology while Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) shows the dual morphology at x < 1.5. The photoluminescence (PL) revealed intense and distinct emissions attributed to both the host and Tb3+ transitions. The emission intensity highly depends on the Alx moles. The International Commission on Illumination (CIE) colour chromaticity showed that the emission colour could be tuned by varying the Alx moles.

The ZnO-CdO nanocomposite was prepared by sol-gel method by using their respective nitrates. It is a simple and low cost method to prepare nanocomposites. The drying temperature and drying period of prepared gel was varied during the synthesis process. The prepared samples were characterized by using scanning electron microscope (SEM), particle size analysis (PSA), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL) to get surface morphology, idea of getting particle of nanosized range so that further characterizations can be done, to study the optical property of synthesized nanocomposite and measure the band gap .
