The Aurivillius phases (APs) [Bi2O2][Formula: see text][[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]][Formula: see text] are well-known ferroelectrics with high Curie temperatures. High-temperature piezoceramics [Formula: see text]GdxTiNbO9(BiGdTiNb, [Formula: see text], 0.1, 0.2, 0.3) were prepared by a solid-state reaction method. The structural and electrophysical characteristics of BiGdTiNb ceramics have been studied. According to the data of powder X-ray diffraction, all the compounds are single-phase with the structures of two-layer APs ([Formula: see text]) with the orthorhombic crystal lattice (space group [Formula: see text]). The temperature dependence of the relative permittivity [Formula: see text] (T) of the compounds was measured and showed that the Curie temperature of perovskite-like oxides [Formula: see text]GdxTiNbO9 increases linearly with an increase in the substitution parameter [Formula: see text] to [Formula: see text]C. The activation energies of charge carriers have been found in different temperature ranges.

The polycrystalline samples of Ba4CaRTi3Nb7O30 (R = Eu, Dy), members of tungsten-bronze family, were prepared by high-temperature solid state reaction method and studied for their dielectric and electrical properties. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis reveals the formation of single-phase compounds having orthorhombic crystal structure at room temperature. Microstructural analysis by scanning electron microscope (SEM) shows that the compounds have well defined grains, which are distributed uniformly throughout the sample. Detailed dielectric properties of the compounds as a function of frequency and temperature show that the compounds undergo non-relaxor kind of ferroelectric-paraelectric phase transition of diffuse nature. Ferroelectric, piezoelectric and pyroelectric studies of the compounds have been discussed in this paper. The temperature dependence of dc conductivity of the compounds have been investigated. The conductivity study over a wide temperature range suggests that the compounds have negative temperature coefficient of resistance (NTCR) behaviour.

In SmBa1-xCaxCo2O5+d (x = 0.01, 0.03, 0.1, and 0.2, SBCCO) oxide systems calcined at 1100°C for 8 h, the XRD patterns of the SBCCO single phase were maintained in the cases of SmBa0.97Ca0.03Co2O5+d (SBCCO-0.97) and SmBa0.99Ca0.01Co2O5+d (SBCCO-0.99) compositions. In SmBa0.8Ca0.2Co2O5+d (SBCCO-0.8) and SmBa0.9Ca0.1Co2O5+d (SBCCO-0.9), CaCoSmO4 existed with the pattern SBCCO. SBCCO structures were identified as orthorhombic crystal structures because they showed splitting of the X-ray diffraction (XRD) peaks at 23.4°, 47.9°, and 59.1°.Typical metallic conduction behaviors were found in all measured compositions except SBCCO-0.8, which showed a metal-insulator transition (MIT) behavior. Compared to other SmBa1-xCaxCo2O5+d compositions, SBCCO-0.8 showed the highest electrical conductivity of 460 S/cm at 500°C. In particular, SBCCO-0.9 was found to have an excellent ASR characteristic of about 0.077 Ωcm2 at 700°C. The activation energy of SBCCO-0.9 was the lowest among SBCCO oxide systems with a value of 0.77 eV.

Bi 9-x Fe 5+x Ti 3 O 27 (x = 0-3) compounds of bismuth layered perovskite structure have been successfully prepared by solid-state reaction method. X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies revealed the orthorhombic crystal structure of all the compounds. Impedance spectroscopy has been studied to characterize the electrical properties of polycrystalline Bi 9-x Fe 5+x Ti 3 O 27 (x = 0-3) compounds. The shape of complex impedance curves inferred the contribution of bulk and grain boundary effects on the electrical properties of the compounds. Temperature dependent magnetization measurements were made from 2 K to 300 K. Narrow hysteresis loops observed at room temperature indicate antiferromagnetic behavior of the compounds.

The structural and electrophysical characteristics of a number of solid solutions of layered oxides of the perovskite-type Bi7[Formula: see text]Wx[Formula: see text][Formula: see text][Formula: see text] ([Formula: see text]) are studied. According to X-ray powder diffraction data, all the compounds studied are single-phase and have the structure of Aurivillius phases ([Formula: see text]) with a rhombic crystal lattice (space group I2[Formula: see text]cm, [Formula: see text]). Changes in tetragonal and rhombic distortions of perovskite-like layers in compounds were considered depending on their chemical composition. The temperature dependences of the relative permittivity [Formula: see text] (T) were measured. It was shown that the Curie temperature [Formula: see text] of the perovskite-type oxides Bi7[Formula: see text]Wx[Formula: see text][Formula: see text][Formula: see text] ([Formula: see text]) linearly decreases with increasing parameter [Formula: see text]. The activation energies of charge carriers were obtained in different temperature ranges. It was found that there are three temperature regions with very different activation energies due to the different nature of the charge carriers in the studied compounds. The effect of substitution of [Formula: see text] ions by [Formula: see text] ions is investigated. It was found that for a number of compounds, the substitution of niobium ions by vanadium ions led to an increase in the dielectric constant and a decrease in the dielectric loss tangent.

In this research, influence of adding Li2CO3 (at 0%, 2%, 4%, 6%) on electrical and magnetic properties of [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]Fe2O4 (with 60% Ni and 40% Mg) ferrite has been studied. The samples are prepared by solid state reaction method and sintered at 1300∘C for 6[Formula: see text]h. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns show the samples belong to single-phase cubic structure without any impurity phase. The magnetic properties (saturation magnetization and coercivity) of the samples have been investigated by VSM and found that the higher concentration of Li2CO3 reduces the hysteresis loss. DC resistivity increases with Li2CO3 contents whereas it decreases initially and then becomes constant at lower value with temperature which indicates that the studied samples are semiconductor. The dielectric dispersion occurs at a low-frequency regime and the loss peaks are formed in a higher frequency regime, which are due to the presence of resonance between applied frequency and hopping frequency of charge carriers. Notably, the loss peaks are shifted to the lower frequency with Li2CO3 additions.

A series of colossal magneto resistance materials having compositional formula Re 0.67 Sr 0.33 MnO 3 (Re = Nd, Gd, … etc.) were prepared by the sol-gel method, using Ethylene glycol as a gelating reagent. The materials were characterized by the powder X-ray diffraction technique and are found to be single phase with orthorhombic structure. The particle size of all the materials were calculated using the well known Shearer formula and are found to be in the range of 20–45 nm. In order to determine the transition temperature (T c ), the DC electrical resistivity measurements were also carried out over a temperature range 80–300 K using the four probe method and it has been observed that the T c values are found to increase with increasing ionic size. Finally the magneto resistance measurements were also undertaken in the temperature range 80–300 K and it has been found that the MR values of these materials are better when compared with those prepared by the solid state reaction method.

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.

The influences of the substitution of Ni with Mg on crystallographic and magnetic properties of the intermetallic alloys LaNi5-xMgx (x ≤ 0.4) were investigated. The X-ray diffraction patterns showed that all samples were of single phase, and the lattice parameters, a and c, decreased slightly upon chemical doping. LaNi5 is well known as an exchange-enhanced Pauli paramagnet. Interestingly, in LaNi5-xMgx, the ferromagnetic order existed even with a small amount of dopants; the Curie temperature reached the value of room temperature for x = 0.2, and enhanced with increasing x.

AbstractIn this work the X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, Raman and dielectric studies of lead free perovskite (1 – x)Ba0.06(Na1/2Bi1/2)0.94TiO3–xNaNbO3 (0 ⩽ x ⩽ 1.0) ceramics, prepared using a standard solid state reaction method, were investigated. X-ray diffraction studies of all the ceramics suggested the formation of single phase with crystal structure transforming from rhombohedral-tetragonal to orthorhombic symmetry with the increase in NaNbO3 content. Raman spectra also confirmed the formation of solid solution without any new phase. Dielectric studies showed that the phase transition is of diffusive character and diffusivity parameter decreases with increasing NaNbO3 content. The compositional fluctuation was considered to be the main cause of diffusivity.
