AbstractThe electrical conductivity of molten ternary alkali carbonate eutectic, coexisting with MgO particles, has been investigated. The conductivity was measured by the AC impedance method. The apparent activation energy ΔEa increased with the MgO content. This fact can be attributed to the effect of the solid phase. The specific conductivity of those systems could not be described using the Maxwell model over the solvation process of the carbonate ions on the particles of the magnesium oxide.

AbstractThe electrical properties of composite electrolytes (suspensions) composed of α-Al2O3 powder and molten carbonate eutectic (Li2CO3–Na2CO3–K2CO3)eut or molten carbonate–chloride mixture 0.72(Li2CO3–Na2CO3–K2CO3)eut–0.28NaCl have been investigated by AC impedance method. This system shows a dependence of the electrical conductivity upon the temperature and the α-Al2O3 content. The specific electrical conductivity of the α-Al2O3/(Li2CO3–Na2CO3–K2CO3)eut system can be adequately described by the Maxwell equation for two-phase heterogeneous materials. The regression equation for the dependence of the specific conductivity of the α-Al2O3/(Li2CO3–Na2CO3–K2CO3)eut composite on the aluminium oxide concentration and temperature was obtained.

Poly-Si thin films with grains 100–200 nm in dia. showing a highly ordered texture were grown from fluorinated precursors, SiFnHm (n+m=3), on a glass substrate at 300–400 °C with the aid of atomic hydrogen. According to the in situ observation by ellipsometry, the reconstruction was undergone in a solid phase stimulated by impinging atomic hydrogens within a thin layer of about 10 nm thick owing to the strong chemical interaction of the pair of H and F in Si-network. Both H and F were released efficiently from the network to the levels of 2 × 1020 cm−3 and (2−5) × 1019 cm−3, respectively. Dangling bonds were also efficiently passivated down to 4 × 1016 cm−3 with hydrogens diffused through the network. P-doped films showing electrical conductivity of 10−2 S/cm (300 °K) with the activation energy of 0.24 eV was obtained by alternately repeating the deposition of thin layer and the treatment with atomic hydrogens.

The electrical conductivity of synthetic zeolites, types X and Y has been studied to give information about the distribution and possibility of migration of the exchangeable cations, located at various sites. The Na+ samples were exchanged with K+, Cs+, Ag+, Li+, and NH4+. The various cationic forms were pressed into pellets and treated at 430°C under high vacuum for 24 hours. After cooling, the electrical conductivity and capacity was measured as a function of frequency (500–20,000 c/s) at various temperatures from −20°C up to 500°C. For each sample the reversibility was investigated. The experimental results allow the calculation of the specific conductivity, the real (ε′) and imaginary (ε″) part of the complex dielectric constant (ε*) and the loss factor tgδ.The results show an ionic conductivity: the specific conductivity depends on the nature of the exchangeable cations as follows: Cs+ > K+ > Ag+ > Na+ > Li+. There is a different conductivity mechanism in the high temperature region compared with the low temperature region. At high temperatures (T > 400°K) the activation energy is independent of frequency. At low temperatures, a dielectuc absorption phenomenon occurs. The activation energy, calculated for this process was somewhat higher, but of the same order of magnitude as that of the high temperature region. It is suggested that the migration of the exchangeable cations in the supercage to interstitial positions gives rise to this dipole absorption phenomenon.A comparison of the decationated Y zeolites with Na+Y and Na+X made it possible to attribute the conductivity to the cations in the supercage only. The exchangeable cations in the cubo-octahedra and in the hexagonal prisms lower the activation energy of the moving cations. Thus the energy of activation of X zeolites is lower than of Y zeolites.

Abstract In this work, titanate Cs2Fe2Ti6O16 with a hollandite-type structure was synthesized by solid-phase synthesis. The electrical conductivity of the obtained ceramics was investigated in the temperature range from 25 to 800 °C in air and in the presence of an argon-hydrogen mixture (3% H2). It was found that the electrical conductivity of the compound under consideration depends on the composition of the atmosphere — the activation energy of conduction changes (0.57 eV in air and 0.91 eV in the presence of hydrogen). The volumetric and grain-boundary contributions to the total resistance of the sample in the gases under consideration are separated by impedance spectroscopy at a temperature of 800 °C.

In this study, the ZnTe thin films were deposited on a glass substrate at a thickness of 400nm using vacuum evaporation technique (2×10-5mbar) at RT. Electrical conductivity and Hall effect measurements have been investigated as a function of variation of the doping ratios (3,5,7%) of the Cu element on the thin ZnTe films. The temperature range of (25-200°C) is to record the electrical conductivity values. The results of the films have two types of transport mechanisms of free carriers with two values of activation energy (Ea1, Ea2), expect 3% Cu. The activation energy (Ea1) increased from 29meV to 157meV before and after doping (Cu at 5%) respectively. The results of Hall effect measurements of ZnTe , ZnTe:Cu films show that all films were (p-type), the carrier concentration (1.1×1020 m-3) , Hall mobility (0.464m2/V.s) for pure ZnTe film, increases the carrier concentration (6.3×1021m-3) Hall mobility (2m2/V.s) for doping (Cu at 3%) film, but  decreases by increasing Cu concentration.

This study investigates the impact of carbon on the kinetics of the spark plasma sintering (SPS) of nano- and submicron powders WC-10wt.%Co. Carbon, in the form of graphite, was introduced into powders by mixing. The activation energy of solid-phase sintering was determined for the conditions of isothermal and continuous heating. It has been demonstrated that increasing the carbon content leads to a decrease in the fraction of η-phase particles and a shift of the shrinkage curve towards lower heating temperatures. It has been established that increasing the graphite content in nano- and submicron powders has no significant effect on the SPS activation energy for “mid-range” heating temperatures, QS(I). The value of QS(I) is close to the activation energy of grain-boundary diffusion in cobalt. It has been demonstrated that increasing the content of graphite leads to a significant decrease in the SPS activation energy, QS(II), for “higher-range” heating temperatures due to lower concentration of tungsten atoms in cobalt-based γ-phase. It has been established that the sintering kinetics of fine-grained WC-Co hard alloys is limited by the intensity of diffusion creep of cobalt (Coble creep).

A brief analysis of scientific publications on the changes in the physicochemical properties of water and aqueous solutions under the influence of temperature, magnetic and electric fields, laser and microwave radiation, ultrasound, and mechanical mixing was performed. A number of researchers have shown the influence of such effects on changes in pH and redox potential, electrical conductivity, surface tension and viscosity of an aqueous solution. The question of influence of external physical effects on water and aqueous solutions remains controversial. Some scientists suggest that water has a cluster structure, which is influenced by physical effects. An important aspect of the problem is the impact on the subsequent behavior and the final result of a chemical process involving previously treated aqueous solutions. Using water solutions of lead and thiourea as an example, the effect of their temperature prehistory in the range of 275-369 K on the kinetics of precipitation of the solid phase of lead sulfide and their microstructure is demonstrated. A threefold change in the composition of supersaturated CdxPb1–xS solid solutions precipitated from solutions containing a lead salt with different temperature prehistory was established. It is shown that the “memory” on the preliminary temperature effect is maintained for at least a day. The influence of electromagnetic treatment of water and aqueous solutions on the content of dissolved oxygen, pH and electrical conductivity is analyzed. Some scientists explain these results by the influence of the field on the structure of hydrogen bonds, others by a change in the cluster structure of water, as well as by the presence of ferromagnetic particles in water. The review presents the current state of the problem of the “memory” effect and the related influence of the prehistory of the impact of physical factors. The review suggested that the “memory” of an aqueous solution is the preservation for a certain time of the changes in its structure and properties that have arisen as a result of the effect. The basic ideas about the mechanisms of influence of the prehistory of physical effects on aqueous solutions are given.

In the system RbF–PbF2–SnF2 are formed solid solutions of the heterovalent substitution RbxPb0,86‑xSn1,14F4-x (0 < x ≤ 0,2) with structure of β–PbSnF4. At x > 0,2 on the X-ray diffractograms, in addition to the basic structure, additional peaks are recorded that do not correspond to the reflexes of the individual fluorides and can indicate the formation of a mixture of solid solutions of different composition. For single-phase solid solutions, the calculated parameters of the crystal lattice are satisfactorily described by the Vegard rule. The introduction of ions of Rb+ into the initial structure leads to an increase in the parameter a of the elementary cell from 5.967 for x = 0 to 5.970 for x = 0.20. The replacement of a part of leads ions to rubium ions an increase in electrical conductivity compared with β–PbSnF4 and Pb0.86Sn1.14F4. Insignificant substitution (up to 3.0 mol%) of ions Pb2+ at Rb+ at T<500 K per order of magnitude reduces the conductivity of the samples obtained, while the nature of its temperature dependence is similar to the temperature dependence of the conductivity of the sample β-PbSnF4. By replacing 5 mol. % of ions with Pb2+ on Rb+, the fluoride ion conductivity at T> 450 K is higher than the conductivity of the initial sample Pb0,86Sn1,14F4 and at temperatures below 450 K by an order of magnitude smaller. With further increase in the content of RbF the electrical conductivity of the samples increases throughout the temperature range, reaching the maximum values at x≥0.15 (σ573 = 0.34–0.41 S/cm, Ea = 0.16 eV and σ373 = (5.34–8.16)•10-2 S/cm, Ea = 0.48–0.51 eV, respectively). In the general case, the replacement of a part of the ions of Pb2+ with Rb+ to an increase in the electrical conductivity of the samples throughout the temperature range. The activation energy of conductivity with an increase in the content of RbF in the low-temperature region in the general case increases, and at temperatures above 400 K is inversely proportional decreasing. The nature of the dependence of the activation energy on the concentration of the heterovalent substituent and its value indicate that the conductivity of the samples obtained increases with an increase in the vacancies of fluoride ions in the structure of the solid solutions.
