ABSTRACTThin films of SrBi2Nb2O9 (SBN) with thicknesses of 0.1, 0.2, and 0.4 μ were grown by Sol-gel technique on silicon, and annealed at 650°C. The SBN films were investigated by Raman scatering for the first time. Raman spectra in some of the samples present bands around 60, 167, 196, 222, 302, 451, 560, 771, 837, and 863 cm−1, which correspond to the SBN formation. The study indicates that the films are inhomogeneous, and only in samples with thicknesses 0.4 μ the SBN material was found in some places. The prominent Raman band around 870 cm−1, which is the A1g mode of the orthorhombic symmetry, is assigned to the symmetric stretching of the NbO6 octahedrals. The frequency of this band is found to shift in different places in the same sample, as well as from sample to sample. The frequency shifts and the width of the Raman bands are discussed in term of ions in non-equilibrium positions. FT-IR spectra reveal a sharp peak at 1260 cm−1, and two broad bands around 995 and 772 cm−1. The bandwidths of the latter two bands are believed to be associated with the presence of a high degree of defects in the films. The experimental results of the SBN films are compared with those obtained in SBT (T=Ta) films. X-ray diffraction and SEM techniques are also used for the structural characterization.

ABSTRACT(PbBa)(ZrTiNb)03 thin films and powders have been prepared using the sol-gel technique. Solutions were synthesized in 2-methoxyethanol based upon our previous PZT solution preparation. Three different approaches were used for incorporating barium into PZT alkoxide solutions. Thermal analysis and x-ray diffraction results indicated that barium methoxypropoxide gave the best results. PBZTN (71% Pb and 71% Zr) was deposited onto sapphire substrates as well as oxidized silicon substrates. Optical transmission measurements showed greater than 80% transmission for wavelengths longer than 400 nm. Films with thickness of 3000 Å on sapphire exhibited a refractive index of 2.19 at λ=633 nm.

ABSTRACTThin films of SrBi2Nb2O9 (SBN) with thickness of 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4 μm were grown by sol-gel technique on platinum/silicon substrates, and annealed at 800°C. Raman spectra of the samples present bands around 170,210, 272, 300,430, 580, 717, and 839 cm−1 which correspond to the SBN formation. The prominent Raman band around 839 cm−1, which is the Alg mode of the orthorhombic symmetry, is assigned to the symmetric stretching of the NbO6 octahedrals. The frequency of this band is found to shift at different places in the same sample, as well as from sample to sample. The frequency and width variations of the Raman bands are discussed in term of ions in non-equilibrium positions, which seem to be related with the crystallization degree in the SBN samples. Also, the Raman study indicates the presence of foreign sharp peaks, which are associated with the coexistence of phases other than SBN. The thickness dependence of the Raman spectra and the X-ray diffraction are also discussed. Finally, the experimental results of the SBN/Pt/Si films grown at 800°C are compared with those obtained at 650°C.

In order to improve the osteoblast growth and bacteria resistance, Zn-containing hydroxyapatite (Zn-HA) and titanium oxide (TiO2) composite coatings were prepared to improve binding between coating and Ti substrate. TiO2 film was prepared on the surface of Ti by micro-arc oxidation (MAO) and Zn-HA coating was deposited on TiO2 using sol–gel technique. Phase structure, composition and microstructure of the surface coatings were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Energy Dispersive Spectrometer (EDS), respectively. The adhesion strength between the coatings with different Zn content was measured by tensile testing. The results showed that there was no significant influence of Zn content on adhesion strength between coating and Ti substrate.

Preferential Crystal Orientation

In this study, thin films of CaBi4Ti4O15with preferential crystal orientation were prepared by the chemical solution deposition (CSD) technique on a SiO2/Si substrate. The films consisted of a crystalline phase of bismuth-layer-structured dielectric. The as-deposited CaBi4Ti4O15thin films were crystallized in a conventional furnace annealing (RTA) under the temperature of 700 to 800°C for 1min. Structural and morphological characterization of the CBT thin films were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and field-emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM). The impedance analyzer HP4294A and HP4156C semiconductor parameters analyzer were used to measurement capacitance voltage (C-V) characteristics and leakage current density of electric field (J-E) characteristics by metal-ferroelectric-insulator- semiconductor (MFIS) structure. By the experimental result the CBT thin film in electrical field 20V, annealing temperature in 750°C the CBT thin film leaks the electric current is 1.88x10-7A/cm2and the memory window is 1.2V. In addition, we found the strongest (119) peak of as-deposited thin films as the annealed temperature of 750°C

AbstractIn our investigation, V doped SiO2/TiO2 thin films were prepared on glass substrates by dip coating sol-gel technique. Chemical composition of the samples was studied by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Transmittance of the samples was characterized using UV-VIS spectrophotometry. Subsequently band-gap energy (Eg) was estimated for these films. Powders obtained from sols were characterized by FTIR spectroscopy. It was found that vanadium decreases optical band gap of SSiO2/TiO2 films.

ZrO2 thin films containing silver nanoparticles were prepared using the sol-gel method with Ag to Zr molar ratios [Ag]/[Zr] = 0.11, 0.25, 0.43, 0.67, 1.00, 1.50, and 2.33. After dip coating on glass substrate, coated films were annealed at 200 and 300 °C in air. X-ray diffraction peaks corresponding to crystalline Ag were observed, but a specific peak corresponding to ZrO2 was not observed. At the molar ratio [Ag]/[Zr] = 0.25, the particle size of Ag distributed broadly centered at 17 nm for an annealing temperature of 200 °C and at 25 nm for 300 °C. The films annealed in air at 200 °C showed an absorption band centered at 450 nm because of the silver surface plasmon resonance, whereas films heated at 300 °C in air caused a red shift of the absorption to 500 nm. The absorption peak was analyzed using the effective dielectric function of Ag-ZrO2 composite films modeled with the Maxwell-Garnett expression.

Glass-ceramic powders with a composition of Li2O · Al2O3 · 4SiO2 (LAS) have been synthesized by the sol-gel technique using LiOCH3, Al(OC2H5)3, Si(OC2H5)4, Ti(OC2H5)4, and Zr(OC2H5)4 as starting materials and the phase transformation behavior during calcination has been investigated. Differential thermal analysis (DTA), x-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were utilized to determine the thermal behavior of the gels. Considering the LAS gels with 6.0 wt. % TiO2 and various wt. % ZrO2 content, and peak position of the β-spodumene phase formation in DTA curves was shifted to a higher temperature when the ZrO2 content was increased. The activation energy of β-spodumene crystallization was 283.8 kcal/mol for LAS gels with 6.0 wt. % TiO2 and 2.0 wt. % ZrO2. Unlike foregoing studies for LAS gels, during calcination of the dried LASTZ gels from 800 °C to 1200 °C neither β-eucryptite nor γ-spodumene was noted to be present. The crystallized phases comprised of β-spodumenes as the major phase and rutile (TiO2) together with zirconia (ZrO2) are precipitated as minor phases.

This work proposes the synthesis of nanocrystalline calcium oxide (CaO) pure and doped with different concentrations of lithium (Li[Formula: see text]) ions by sol–gel process. Calcium nitrate (Ca(NO[Formula: see text]4H2O; 99.99%) and lithium nitrate (LiNO3; 99.99%) were used as precursors. The synthesized powders were characterized by several techniques such as: UV-Vis transmission spectroscopy, Fourier Transform Infra-red spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The main objective of this paper is to study the influence of lithium (Li[Formula: see text] ratio) on the structural and optical properties of synthesized powders. The band gap values decreased with the increasing of Li[Formula: see text] ions in CaO lattice; the slight change in the band gap was directly related to the energy transfer between the CaO excited states and the 2s levels of Li[Formula: see text] ions. The influence of Li[Formula: see text] doping on the physical properties of CaO nanocrystalline will be studied for the first time in this work; no literature has previously published this kind of impurities.
