In this paper we report samarium substituted Ba 0.80 Pb 0.20 Ti 0.90 Zr 0.10 O 3 (BPZT) ceramics. The material series with compositional formula Ba 0.80-x Sm x Pb 0.20 Ti 0.90 Zr 0.10 O 3 with x varying from 0 to 0.01 in the steps of 0.0025 was chosen for investigations. The material was synthesized by solid state reaction method. Reacted powders compacted in the form of circular discs were sintered at 1325°C. All the samples were subjected to X-ray analysis and found to be single phase. Dielectric behavior was studied as a function of frequency and temperature and Curie temperature (Tc) was determined. Tc was found to decrease with increasing x. The details are discussed and presented here.

SrBi1.8Ce0.2Nb2O9 (SBCN) and SrBi1.8Ce0.2Ta2O9 (SBCT) powders were prepared via solid-state reaction method. X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that the SBCN and SBCT powders have the single phase orthorhom-bic Aurivillius structure at room temperature. The contribution of Raman scattering and FTIR spectroscopy of these samples were relatively smooth and resemble each other. The calcined powders were uniaxially pressed and sintered at 1250?C for 8 h to obtaine dense ceramics. Dielectric constant, loss tangent and AC conductivity of the sintered Ce-doped SrBi2Nb2O9 and SrBi2Ta2O9 ceramics were measured by LCR meter. The Ce-doped SBN (SBCN) ceramics have a higher Curie temperature (TC) and dielectric constant at TC (380?C and ?? ~3510) compared to the Ce-doped SBT (SBCT) ceramics (330?C and ?? ~115) when measured at 100Hz. However, the Ce-doped SBT (SBCT) ceramics have lower conductivity and dielectric loss.

In this paper, M3(VO4)2 (M = Mg, Ca, Sr, and Ba) self-activated phosphors were prepared by a solid-state reaction method at 1,000 °C for 5 h. The phase formation and micrographs were analyzed by X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The Ca3(VO4)2 phosphor does not show any emission peaks under excitation with ultraviolet (UV) light. However, the M3(VO4)2 (M = Mg, Sr, and Ba) samples are effectively excited by UV light chips ranging from 200 nm to 400 nm and exhibit broad emission bands due to the charge transfer from the oxygen 2p orbital to the vacant 3d orbital of the vanadium in the VO4. The color of these phosphors changes from yellow to light blue via blue-green with increasing ionic radius from Mg to Sr to Ba. The luminescence lifetimes and quantum yield decrease with the increasing unit cell volume and V–V distance, in the order of Mg3(VO4)2 to Sr3(VO4)2 to Ba3(VO4)2. The emission intensity decreases with the increase of temperatures, but presents no color shift. This confirms that these self-activated M3(VO4)2 phosphors can be suggested as candidates of the single-phase phosphors for light using UV light emitting diodes (LEDs).

<p><strong>Abstract: </strong>LaFeO<sub>3</sub> system with doped Ti, Co, Cu was manufactured by solid state reaction method, it was sintered at 1250<sup>0</sup>C and 1290<sup>0</sup>C in 10 hours with a heating rate of 3<sup>0</sup>C/min. Using X-ray diffraction and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) to examine the structure, it reveals that samples are single-phase and orthogonal-perovskite structure describing by the Pnma space group, the unit cell volume of the samples increases when Ti, Co, Cu are doped to replace ion Fe<sup>+3</sup>. The size of particle increase while raising the temperature of sintering. Measuring the resistance which depends on temperature between the room temperature and 1000K, it can be seen that when doping Co, Cu with the nominal component La(Fe<sub>0,2</sub>Co<sub>0,2</sub>Ti<sub>0,6</sub>)O<sub>3</sub> and La(Fe<sub>0,4</sub>Cu<sub>0,1</sub>Ti<sub>0,5</sub>)O<sub>3 </sub>, the conductivity of samples increases respectively. Especially, the conductivity of Cu doped sample is higher than two other samples, and reach the highest conductivity at about 900<sup>0</sup>C, Seebeck coefficient S of La(Fe<sub>0.6</sub>Ti<sub>0.4</sub>)O<sub>3</sub> can be change from positive to negative at the temperature of around 700<sup>0</sup>C.</p>

Anatase of Titanium dioxide (TiO<sub>2</sub>)  was doped with vanadium ions (V<sup>3+</sup>), at doping levels ranging from 0.3, 0.5 to 0.7 atomic percentage in order to increase its photocatalytic activity under visible light irradiation. Vanadium doped TiO<sub>2</sub> was synthesized by solid state reaction method. Its physicochemical properties characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS). Doping with V(III) resulted in a single phase structure of anatase TiO<sub>2</sub> with nanosize crystal ranging from 53.06 to 59.59 nm. Vanadium doping also resulted in a red-shift of the photophysical response of TiO<sub>2</sub> that was reflected in an extended absorption in the visible light between 400 and 700 nm.

We synthesized Sr- and W-doped BaTiO3 (BTO) polycrystals by using a solid-state reaction method. The X-ray diffraction results showed that Sr and W atoms occupied the Ba and Ti sites in tetragonal BTO, respectively, and there were changes in the lattice constants and the volumes in the Sr- and W-doped BTO. We found a change in the latent heat and the Curie temperature (TC) during the transition between the ferroelectric and paraelectric phases while increasing the contents of Sr and W in the Sr- and W-doped BTO. This can be explained by the fact that the doping of Sr and W atoms in BTO prevented a distinct transition between the ferroelectric tetragonal and paraelectric cubic structures by decreasing the c/a ratio to a value close to unity. This study shows a way toward a strategy for modulating a crystal structure by using proper dopants for future applications in ferroelectricity-based devices.

Sr2Bi (4-x/3) Ti (5-x) VxO18 (x = 0.0-0.06) (SBTV) ceramics were prepared by a solid-state reaction method, and the ferroelectric and dielectric properties of the ceramics were investigated with respect to the amount of V deficiency. XRD analysis indicated that the oxide compounds were Aurivillius phases. The Curie temperature of SBTV ceramics was improved by doping of certain amount of V. The V deficiency also led to a steady increase in the density together with a decrease in the coercive field. For the ceramics with x = 0.06, the properties become optimum: d33 = 19 pC/N, Tc = 306oC, Ec = 43.7 KV/cm.

Series of Sm1-xFe1-3xZr3xO3 (SFZO, where x = 0.0, 0.01, 0.02, 0.033, 0.05, 0.1 and 0.15), was synthesised by the solid state reaction method and sintered at 1500?C in air. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to investigate the structure of the materials. The XRD results indicated that the pure SmFeO3 and Sm0.99Fe0.97Zr0.03O3 samples are single phase materials with an orthorhombic symmetry and Pbnm space group. The increase of Zr content (x ? 0.02) causes a phase change from single to twophase system with orthorhombic (Pbnm) and fluorite symmetry (Fm?3m). The microstructural analyses showed that the Zr4+ doping resulted in an increase of porosity in the sintered SFZO compared to SmFeO3 sample. The direct current (DC) electrical conductivity at 850?C in air was found to be 0.045 S/cm and 0.007 S/cm for Sm0.99Fe0.97Zr0.03O3 and SmFeO3, respectively, showing a significant enhancement compared to the pure SmFeO3.

A development of synthetic process via rare earth complex precursors was applied to a formation of rare earth manganites which can not be easily formed by conventional (normal) process. Several compounds of rare earth manganites with various structures were successfully synthesized by this method and their crystal structures were identified by powder X-ray diffractometry. Both of the orthorhombic and rhombohedral LaMnO3phases were prepared. LnMn2O5phase was more easily prepared by this method than by another method. The solid solution of (Sr,La)2MnO4phase for various compositions were tried to prepare a single phase, especially for a composition region Sr/La ratio < 1. since this phase is normally formed for only region of Sr/La ratio .. 1 by the solid state reaction method.

La2Ti2-xNbxO7 (x = 0.00, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20, 0.25) powders were synthesised via solid state reaction method, followed by sintering at 1673 K in a reducing atmosphere of 5% H2/N2 gas. The crystal structure, microstructure and thermoelectric (TE) properties of the pure and Nb-doped La2Ti2O7 ceramics were investigated. All compositions were single phase with porous microstructures consistent with their low experimental densities. Thermoelectric results of Nb-doped compositions showed improved properties in comparison to pure La2Ti2O7, suggesting that cation doping has the potential to improve the thermoelectric properties. Generally, the TE results obtained are not suitable for thermoelectric applications. However, the high Seebeck coefficient (≥190 μV/K) and glass-like thermal conductivity ( ≤2.26 w / m.k )  values achieved have opened a new window for exploring the thermoelectric potentials of La2Ti2O7 and other related oxides.
