AbstractA new 3-dimensional zinc carbonate Zn(NH3)CO3 has been synthesized from a glycol system with urea and zinc acetate as raw materials. The crystal structure and photoluminescent properties have been investigated using X-ray diffraction, smart CCD and FL. The compound had an orthorhombic system with space group of Pna21 with M = 142.41, a = 9.1449(18) Å, b = 7.5963(15) Å, c = 5.4982(11) Å, V = 381.95(13) Å3, Z = 4, R = 0.0285 and RW = 0.0745. The NH3 and CO32- were connected through the Zn-N bond and Zn-O bond in the symmetric unit. Photoluminescent property was observed in the compound at room temperature and the exited and emission peaks were located at about 350 nm and 426 nm, respectively.

Nanoscale LiTaO3 powders with perovskite structure were synthesized using the solvothermal technique with glycol as solvent at 240°C for 12h. The powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). XRD was used to elucidate room temperature structures using Rietveld refinement. The powders were pure single pervoskite phase with high crystallinity. FESEM and TEM were used to determine particle size and morphology. The average LiTaO3 grain size was estimated to be < 200nm, and TEM images indicated that LiTaO3 particles had a brick-like morphology. In addition, the effect of the temperature on the LiTaO3 power characterisitics was also detailed studied.

Background: Iron oxide (γ-Fe2O3) nanoparticles have been prepared by a simplified coprecipitation method. Methods: X-ray diffraction peaks of the prepared nanoparticles match well with the characteristic peaks of crystalline g-Fe2O3 as per JCPDS data (JCPDS Card No. 39-1346) and absorption peak at 369 nm along with band gap 2.10 eV suggesting the formation of (γ-Fe2O3) nanoparticles. Results: The γ-Fe2O3 nanoparticles are spherical in nature with a diameter around ~10 nm. Conclusion: The crystalline g-Fe2O3 nanoparticles exhibit excellent super-paramagnetic behavior not only at room temperature (300K) but also at a temperature as low as 100K.

In this paper, employing Cu(AC)2•H2O, SnCl2•2H2O and thiourea as raw materials, the composites of graphene/Cu2SnS3 quantum dots (QDs) were prepared simply and quickly using the hydrothermal method. Meanwhile, the separate Cu2SnS3 QDs were also synthesized in the same way. The as-obtained Cu2SnS3 QDs and composites’ phase structures were analyzed and characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), and the results indicated that the size of the Cu2SnS3 QDs in the composites were less than that of the separate Cu2SnS3 QDs. At the same time, their morphologies were also observed and cross-confirmed by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), and the measurements manifested that Cu2SnS3 QDs were uniformly dispersed on the surface of the graphene, while the separate Cu2SnS3 QDs have obvious glomeration. In addition to this, elemental analysis was also made to verify the existence of Cu2SnS3 on the surface of graphene.

The cubic iron hydroxy boracite Fe3B7O13OH・1.5H2O was synthesized from Fe2O3 and B2O3 under high-pressure/high-temperature conditions of 3 GPa and 960 °C in a modified Walker-type multianvil apparatus. The crystal structure was determined at room temperature by X-ray diffraction on single crystals. It crystallizes in the cubic space group F4̄3c (Z = 8) with the parameters a = 1222.4(2) pm, V = 1.826(4) nm3, R1 = 0.0362, and wR2 = 0.0726 (all data). The B-O network is similar to that of other cubic boracites.

Nanocrystalline LiMn2O4 powder was synthesized by sol-gel method using citric acid as a chelating agent. The powders were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), Differential thermal analysis (DTA), Impedance spectroscopy (IS) and Electrochemical measurements. The powder particles having slight agglomeration characteristics were found to have prismatic morphology and a wider size distribution from 50 nm to 200 nm, which provides good packing density of the material. The electrical conductivity of the powder at room temperature is in the order of ~10-5 S/cm. The structural stability of LiMn2O4 cubic spinel over the temperature range of battery operation was assessed. Electrochemical performance of the material shows a discharge capacity of ~130 mAh/gm.

This work presents the synthesis and characterization of NTC ceramic (Negative coefficient Temperature) based on nickel manganite (NiMn2O4) produced by the polymeric precursor method. NiMn2O4 were sintered at 900-1200 °C during 3h to produce the ceramics samples. The effect of sintering temperature on microstructure and electric properties of the NiMn2O4 ceramics was studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and temperature dependent resistance R(T) measurements. The XRD measurement indicated formation of cubic spinel-type structure of NiMn2O4. The crystallite size (as confirmed by XRD) and the particle size (as confirmed by SEM) increased as the sintering temperature increased from around 18nm (900 °C) to 100nm (1200 °C). All samples showed NTC behavior and, among the studied ceramics, that one sintered at 1200 °C showed lower resistivity value (~103Ω.cm) at room temperature.

The need for obtaining new materials to replace human body parts that were destroyed or damaged led scientists from different areas of research for developing new biomaterials. Thus, the aim of this work was the synthesis and characterization of niobium-modified apatite bioceramics. Calcium phosphates (CaP) were synthesized with niobium partially replacing calcium sites using aqueous precipitation route at room temperature. The bioceramics, with and without Nb incorporation, were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) coupled with energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) as prepared and after heat treatments The results indicated that Nb was incorporated in the apatite structure promoting morphological and structural changes in the ceramic properties.

In this research, the effects of ZnO nanoparticles additive on crystallization behavior, dielectric and ferroelectric properties of Bi0.5(Na0.81,K0.19)0.5TiO3 ceramics were investigated. The samples were synthesized by solid state reaction technique, where powders were calcined at 850 °C for 4 h and ceramics were sintered at 1100-1150 °C for 4 h. Phase formation was determined by X-ray diffraction technique (XRD). The X-ray diffraction analysis of the ceramics suggests that all samples exhibited a perovskite structure. The dielectric properties under room temperature and various temperatures were also determined. Dielectric measurement data showed that the additive influenced dielectric constant and dielectric loss. Furthermore, the hysteresis loop behaviors slightly changed with increasing the nanoparticles contents.

Hierarchical calcium carbonate spheres composed of nanoparticles has been successfully synthesized via a solvothermal process. The structures are fabricated by the reaction of Ca (CH3COO)2with (CO(NH2)2) at 110 °C in diethylene glycolwater mixed solvents in the presence of polyvinylpyrrolidone. The as-prepared products were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The characterization results revealed that the average diameter of the hierarchical calcium carbonate spheres is about 5 μm, and the size of the nanoparticals range from 50 to 100 nm. In addition, a small amount of bundle-like aragonite calcium carbonate is also obtained in the experimental parameters.
