AbstractSrTiO3 and PbTiO3 perovskites are combined to form the xPbTiO3-(1−x)SrTiO3 (PST) solid solution. The effect of the PbTiO3 content on the microstructural and dielectric properties is studied for different compositions (x=0.1,0.3,0.5,0.7, and 0.9). Microstructural features of the PST system are studied by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) techniques. Electrical properties are studied by the thermoelectric analysis technique at both fixed frequency and varying frequency to study the behavior of the dielectric constant and dielectric loss.Films of 0.5PbTiO3-0.5SrTiO3 (PST50) have been obtained by RF ion sputtering on different substrates. We investigate the relation between the crystalline structure and the dielectric properties of PST50 films deposited on different metallic films. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and X-Ray Diffraction were used for the structural analysis of the PST50/TiN/Si and PST50/RuO2/TiN /Si systems. The dielectric properties of the PST50 films were measured for TiN/PST50/TiN/Si, and RuO2/PST50/RuO2/TiN/Si capacitors and the results were correlated to the structure and composition. The charge storage capabilities of the PST50 films are evaluated for possible application in integrated circuit technology.

The 0.98BaTiO3-0.02Ba (Mg1/3Nb2/3) O3ceramics has been synthesized through a conventional mixed-oxide by using BT nanopowder and BMN micropowder. The phase purity of the powders and the ceramics was examined using X-ray diffraction (XRD). The 0.98BT-0.02BMN powders were sintered to 92% of the theoretical density at a temperature of 1300 °C for 2 h. The microstructure of the sintered surface was investigated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The dielectric constant (εr) and loss factor (tanδ) of the sintered pellets at Curie temperture were 3000 and 0.015, respectively.

AbstractMg0:95Ni0:05Ti0:98Zr0:02O3 ceramics was prepared via conventional solid-state mixed-oxide route. The phase, microstructure and microwave dielectric properties of the sintered samples were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and a vector network analyzer. The microstructure comprised of circular and elongated plate-like grains. The semi quantitative analysis (EDS) of the circular and elongated grains revealed the existence of Mg0:95Ni0:05T2O5 as a secondary phase along with the parent Mg0:95Ni0:05Ti0:98Zr0:02O3 phase, which was consistent with the XRD findings. In the present study, εr ~17.1, Qufo~195855 ± 2550 GHz and τf ~ -46 ppm/K was achieved for the synthesized Mg0:95Ni0:05Ti0:98Zr0:02O3 ceramics sintered at 1325 °C for 4 h.

In this study, free Ti/Si/Al/C powder mixtures with molar ratio of 3:0.4:0.8:1.8 were heated in Argon with various schedules, in order to reveal the possibility for the synthesis of Ti3Si0.4Al0.8C1.8 solid solution powder. X-ray diffraction (XRD) was used for the evaluation of phase identities of the powder after different treatments. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to observe the morphology of the Ti3Si0.4Al0.8C1.8 solid solution. XRD results showed that predominantly single phase samples of Ti3Si0.4Al0.8C1.8 was prepared after heating at 1400oC for 5 min in Argon and the lattice parameters of Ti3Si0.4Al0.8C1.8 lay between those of Ti3SiC2 and Ti3AlC2.

Phase-pure Ba2Ti9O20 powders were made by doping 3 wt% of V2O5 to a Ba:Ti = 2:9 molar composition, and the effects of the dopant on the phase formation were investigated. The study shows that BaTiO3, BaTi2O5, and BaTi4O9 were the intermediate phases before the formation of Ba2Ti9O20 for samples with or without V2O5. However, with V2O5 doping, the temperature at which Ba2Ti9O20 occurred were lowered from 1150 to 1050 °C and single phase Ba2Ti9O20 powders was easily obtained at 1150 °C for 2 h. Microstructure of the powders was examined by field emission scanning electron microscopy. No evidence of V2O5–Ba2Ti9O20 solid-solution was found by x-ray diffraction and energy-dispersive spectroscopy. The benefit of V2O5 to facilitate the Ba2Ti9O20 synthesis is most probably due to a vanadium-containing eutectic liquid phase which accelerates the migration of reactant species.

Highly oriented Bi2Fe4O9 nanosheets can be fabricated with Fe(NO3)3 ⋅ 9H2O and Bi(NO3)3 ⋅ 5H2O using the low-temperature hydrothermal method. The as-prepared powders are characterized with X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), which exhibit an excellent orientation along the (00l) planes. The leakage current density and dielectric properties of the nanosheet samples are measured by Radiant Precision Workstation and HP4291B Impedance Analyzer, respectively. The effects of NaOH concentration on the phase transformation, sheet size and morphologies of the Bi2Fe4O9 crystallites are studied in this paper.

In this paper, we reported a facile microwave-assisted green chemical route to prepare pure, uniform, and monodispersed Cu2O octahedron wrapped by the {111} faces by using glucose as a reducing agent. X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry(EDX) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) were used to characterize the as-synthesized products. It was found that the morphology and structure of Cu2O crystals were greatly affected by the concentration of NaOH. A solid-solution-solid growth mechanism was possibly proposed on the basis of the comparative experimental results.

Cr3C2-WC-Ni nanocomposite powders with ~50-100 nm were synthesized from precursors by vacuum-aided carbothermal reduction at only 750 °C for 2 h. The phase composition and microstructure of the synthesized products were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. The present study shows that Cr3C2-WC-Ni nanocomposite powders contain two kinds of solid-solution phases, namely Ni and (Cr, W)3C2solid solution, respectively. WC and W2C phases do not appear inreaction products due to the dissolution of tungsten atoms into Ni and Cr3C2unit cells. Especially, there is a change of the crystalline structure for (Cr, W)3C2phase from 750 °C to 800 °C.

The Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3-xwt%BaTiO3 compound ceramics were prepared. The influence of different BaTiO3 content on structure was evaluated by scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. The results show oriented is induced by plate-like BaTiO3 template. Signficant improvement of the piezoelectric (d33 = 112 pC/N) and dielectric properties ( max ≈ 5500) was observed. The improvement was attested to the apparent alignment of the BaTiO3 templates and grain oriented growth.

View of the importance that has the development in the field of advanced technology transmission in human life, smart materials draws the attention of many researchers. In this contribution, we are interested in synthesizing a new smart material of the ceramic type based on Pb, Zr, Ti (PZT) doped La in the site A, and Sb, Zn in site B from a solid solution of pure oxides. The synthesized samples are thermally treated at 800°C. The techniques of x-ray diffraction (XRD) and SEM (scanning electron microscopy) are used to characterize the microstructure (the crystallographic phase), and the densities of the obtained samples were determined from their weights and volumes. The effect of sintering temperature on the microstructure properties was studied.

The CaO-B2O3-SiO2 glass ceramics system with four different boron contents (14 wt. %, 16.4 wt. %, 18.6 wt. %, 21 wt. %) were prepared under 900oC. The properties and microstructures are characterized by Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC), X-ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The effects of boron contents on the composition of crystalline phases and the properties of CaO-B2O3-SiO2 glass ceramics system were studied. The results show that when the molar ratio of CaO/SiO2 is 1.06, as the content of B2O3 increases, the major crystalline phases experiences the transformation from CaSiO3 to CaB2O4 and the content of α-SiO2 crystalline phase decreases, and the dielectric constant increases firstly but it decreases after the content of B2O3 reaches to 18.6 wt. %, while the dielectric loss tgδ of decreases gradually with the addition of boron content. When the content of B2O3 is 16.4 wt. %, the CaO-B2O3-SiO2 glass ceramics with a bulk density of 2.47 g/cm3 exhibits good dielectric properties (1 MHz): εr=6.03, tgδ=3.49×10-3.
