Langanite (La3Ga5.5Nb0.5O14, growth atmosphere: 99% Ar + 1% O2) and kanigasite (Ca3NbGa3Si2O14, growth atmosphere: 100% Ar) crystals grown by the Czochralski technique in Ir crucibles along <0001> direction have been firstly investigated by neutron diffraction. The difference between the compositions of upper (La2.935(2)□0.065)(Ga0.450Nb0.550(3))Ga3(Ga1.965(4)□0.035)(O13.90(1)□0.10) and lower (La2.940(1)□0.060)(Ga0.590Nb0.410(2))Ga5(O13.82(1)□0.18) parts of orange langanite crystal was found. It was established that the colorless Ca3NbGa3Si2O14 crystal grown by using the single-crystal charge has the composition (Ca2.95□0.05(1))NbGa3Si2O14 and is less defective in comparison to the yellow one grown by using the charge prepared by conventional solid-state reaction. For Ca3NbGa3Si2O14 and La3Ga5.5Nb0.5O14 crystals the possibility of microtwin formation (two unit cells connected by the translation: 1/2 z) was revealed for the first time. It was found that the difference between the color of crystals is attributed to the qualitative differentiation of oxygen vacancies.

LiTaO3: Tm3+, Yb3+powders were synthesized by a high-energy ball-milling (HEB) method compared with the conventional solid-state reaction (SSR) method. Under the excitation of 980 nm laser, the strong blue emission (477 nm) band is observed and attributed to1G4-3H6of Tm3+. Because of it causing high local temperature and narrow particles size, increasing the contact area between the particles and improved crystallinity of the host, synthesis by high-energy ball milling show higher photoluminescence (PL) intensity compared to the solid state reaction method. In the process of mechanical milling, Tm3+, Yb3+co-doped LiTaO3phosphors with high photoluminescence property could be achieved at a relatively low reaction temperature.

Ce3+-doped 0.5La2O3-2SrO-0.5Al2O3 (LSA:Ce) phosphors had been successfully synthesized using a conventional solid-state reaction method under reducing atmosphere (H2/N2 =1/5). The phase, morphologies and luminescence properties of the LSA:Ce phosphors were investigated. The emission intensity of LSA:Ce phosphors was improved by the addition of SrF2 as flux, and red shift of PL spectra peak was observed in this phosphors. Research results shown that the LSA:Ce phosphors have the potential to meet the development of white light-emitting diodes.

MIn(WO4)2 (M = Li, Na, and K) with InO6 and WO6 octahedra were synthesized via a conventional solid-state reaction method. The photophysical and photocatalytic properties were studied. Compared with WO3, which is unable to evolve H2 from an aqueous CH3OH solution under illumination, the three materials can evolve H2 and O2 from aqueous solutions with CH3OH and AgNO3 sacrificial reagents, respectively. The activity order of photocatalytic H2 evolution is NaIn(WO4)2 > LiIn(WO4)2 > KIn(WO4)2 under irradiation (λ > 200 nm). Under irradiation (λ > 300 nm), however, LiIn(WO4)2 has a high activity for photocatalytic H2 evolution over NaIn(WO4)2. It is also noteworthy that LiIn(WO4)2 and NaIn(WO4)2 exhibit the ability to split pure water. The results suggest that the bottoms of the conduction bands in these photocatalysts are raised to meet the potential requirements of photocatalytic H2 evolution.

Microwave ceramics of Ba(Mg0.2/3Zn0.8/3Nb2/3)O3 and Ba1-xSrx(Mg0.2/3Zn0.8/3Nb2/3)O3 were synthesized with conventional solid-state reaction method. Dielectric properties of the samples were studied as functions of compositions and sintering temperatures. Experimental results show that a higher Q×f value is reached by substituting Zn ions with Mg ions and a near-zero temperature coefficient of resonant frequency is obtained by replacing Ba ions with Sr ions.
