The variation of Tc in a single-phase high temperature superconductor Bi 2 Sr 2 Ca 1 Cu 2 O 8−x is studied using techniques like X-ray diffraction, magnetic and electric measurements. The samples of Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O (with nominal composition 2212) are synthesized by solid state reaction using appropriate amounts of Bi 2 O 3, SrCO 3, CaCO 3 and CuO powders. The Tc is found to vary from 92 K to 115 K in the quenched samples. These changes in the value of Tc have been related to the changes in the inter-layer spacing. It is concluded that an increase in the electron density due to shortening of the inter-layer increases the attractive interaction between pairs and is thus responsible for the high Tc in these superconductors.

The variation of critical temperature Tc in a single-phased ceramic high temperature superconductor Bi 4 Sr 3 Ca 3 Cu 4 O y is studied using techniques like X-ray diffraction, magnetic and electrical measurements. Samples of Bi-Sr-Ca-CuO having nominal composition 4334 are synthesized by solid state reaction using appropriate amounts of Bi 2O3, SrCO 3, CaCO 3 and CuO powders. It has been shown that the Tc in this material can be raised from 98 K in the fast quenched sample to 120 K in the furnace-cooled one. The higher values of Tc in furnace cooled specimens as compared with the Tc in quenched samples have been attributed to the variation in the interlayer spacing in these compounds. It is concluded that electron density and hence the attractive interaction between pairs are increased due to shortening of the interlayer spacing in the furnace-cooled sample, leading to an increase of its Tc.

As a new candidate material for the ceramic layer in thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) system, La3NbO7 was synthesized with La2O3 powder and Nb2O5 powder by solid state reaction. The stating powders with a mole ratio of La to Nb of 3:1 were mixed and then the mixture was calcined under the different temperatures(800°C, 1000°C, 1200°C) and dwell times(2h, 6h, 10h). The phase structure of the powder was observed by X–ray diffraction(XRD), and the microstructure of the sample was observed by scanning electron microscope(SEM). The effect of calcination temperature and dwell Time on the phase formation were examined. The results indicate that the La3NbO7 powder with single phase can be synthesized successfully at 1200°C for 10h in air, and the La3NbOsub>7 powders synthesized have an ultra-fine particle size of 0.5˜1µm with a granular particle shape. With the temperature increasing, LaNbO4/sub> was synthesized firstly and then La3NbO7 was synthesized with a mole ratio of La2O3 to LaNbO4 of 1:1.

The high temperature superconductor’s compounds are one of the hot spot field of science, due to their applications in industries. Hg0.8Sb0.2Ba2Ca2Cu3O8+δ and Hg0.8Sb0.2Ba2Ca1Cu2O6+δ, were manufactured using a doable-step of solid state reaction method. The samples were sintered at 800 ° C. The transition temperatures Tc are found from electrically resistively by using four probe techniques. The resistivity become zero when the transition temperature Tc(offset) have 131 and 119 K, and the onset temperature Tc(onset) have 139 K for Hg0.8Sb0.2Ba2Ca2Cu3O8+δ and 132 K for Hg0.8Sb0.2Ba2Ca1Cu2O6+δ. Analysis of X-ray diffraction showed a tetragonal structure with lattice parameters changes for all samples.

The crystallographic data of YBa2Cu3O7−δ, Y2BaCuO5, BaCu2O2, and YBa4Cu3O9 at high temperatures and p(O2)<10 Pa have been derived on the basis of HT-XRD measurements. Whereas Y2BaCuO5 expands nearly isotropically, YBa2Cu3O7−δ and BaCu2O2 show anisotropic expansions. Furthermore, the first decomposition step of the considered compounds at p(O2)<10 Pa was observed. BaCu2O2 melts congruently at T ≍ 1273 K and Y2BaCuO5 decomposes via a peritectic reaction into Y2O3, Y2BaO4 and melts at T ≍ 1323 K. A solid-state reaction into Y2BaCuO5 and BaCu2O2 was indicated for YBa2Cu3O7−δ at T ≍ 1123 K. Because YBa4Cu3O9 becomes unstable at T ≍ 1123 K, this compound cannot be formed by the primary decomposition reaction of YBa2Cu3O7−δ

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).

A corundum-type structure of cobalt niobate (Co4Nb2O9) has been synthesized by a solid-state reaction. The formation of the Co4Nb2O9 phase in the calcined powders was investigated as a function of calcination conditions by differential thermal analysis (DTA) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques. Morphology and particle size have been determined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). It was found that the minor phases of unreacted Co3O4 tend to form together with the columbite CoNb2O6 phase at a low calcination temperature and short dwell time. It seems that the single-phase of Co4Nb2O9 in a corundum phase can be obtained successfully at the calcination conditions of 900°C for 60 min, with heating/cooling rates of 20°C /min.

M2SiO4: Tb3+, Mn2+, Nd3+ (M = Mg2+, Ca2+, Sr2+, and Ba2+) phosphors suitable for near-ultraviolet-violet radiation excitation were successfully prepared at 1400 °C in N2 atmosphere by a high-temperature solid-state reaction, and their phase compositions and luminescent performance were also studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), photoluminescence spectra. Results show that their emission intensity increases in the order of Ca2SiO4 > Mg2SiO4 > Sr2SiO4 > Ba2SiO4 matrix phosphor. Ca1.94SiO4: 0.02Tb3 +, 0.02Mn2+, 0.02Nd2+ phosphor exhibits the best luminescence performance.

Polycrystalline samples with a nominal composition Ru 1-x Sb x Sr 2 GdCu 2 O 8-d were prepared by a solid state reaction technique. A mixture of RuO 2, Sb 2 O 3, Gd 2 O 3, SrCO 3 and CuO was used to obtain the samples. We performed X-ray diffraction analyses, DC susceptibility and transport measurements and the studies showed that the samples were almost pure Ru -1212 phase. We also observed that Sb doping reduce the conductivity of the system and the transition temperature decreases with increasing Sb content. This may be due to a distortion of RuO 6 octahedral which is responsible for the increase of holes localization.

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.
