Abstract Pyrophosphates are interesting compounds as optical materials, ionic conductors, solid electrolytes, battery electrodes, solid-state lasers and active layer for sensors. In this context, the compound CsYP 2 O 7 has been synthesized by the solid-state reaction method. The X-ray powder diffraction at room temperature confirmed the phase formation of the synthesized compound in the monoclinic phase. The composition and morphology were performed by energy dispersive spectroscopy coupled with scanning electron microscope . The optical properties of the compound were studied by UV–Vis absorption spectroscopy. By direct investigation of the UV absorption measurements and using the Tauc model, we have found that the direct optical band gap is equal to 3.7eV. Two of the relaxation mechanisms were clearly identified from Nyquist plots and modulus analysis, which can be discerned to both grain and grain boundary contributions effect. The obtained results were analyzed by fitting the experimental data to an equivalent circuit model.Bulk resistance and grain boundary resistance decreased with the increase of temperature, which confirmed negative temperature coefficient of resistance behavior. The same values of activation energies obtained from the impedance (0.43 eV ) and hopping frequency (0.42 eV),prove that the transport happens through an ion hopping mechanism dominated by the motion of the Cs + cations in the structure of the CsYP 2 O 7 material. The results confirm tha the synthesized compound is suitable for catalysis and optoelectronic applications.

In this paper, dielectric relaxor, impedance, AC conductivity and electrical modulus of double perovskite Nd2NiMnO6, prepared by a solid state reaction method and sintered at 1250?C, have been reported in the wide temperature (25-150?C) and frequency (1 kHz-1MHz) ranges. From the preliminary X-ray structural analysis, it is found that the structure of the material is monoclinic. In the study of the temperature dependence of the dielectric constant, the relaxor behaviour of the material is observed. Such type of behaviour is explained by a modified Curie-Weiss and a Vogel-Fulcher law. By analysing Nyquist plots, the existence of grain and grain boundary effects is established. The non-Debye type of relaxation is investigated by the analysis of complex impedance and the modulus data. From the study of impedance data, it is found that the grain resistance is reduced with the increase in temperature indicating the existence of negative temperature coefficient of resistance (NTCR) behaviour in the material which also matches with temperature versus AC conductivity plots. From these results, it may be concluded that this compound may have extreme potential for different high temperature applications.

Phases of general formula (RE, A)2M3O7 (RE=lanthanide, A=Ca, Sr, Ba; M=Ga, Al) are of interest for their nonlinear optical properties and have potential as solid state lasers. Their structures have been refined using X-ray and neutron diffraction data and are related to gehlenite, Ca2Al2SiO7, with M cations occupying Al and Si sites and RE and A cations sharing the Ca site with no evidence for ordering, although they occur in the ratio 1:1 because of stoichiometry; the M cations are tetrahedrally coordinated. (RE, Ba)2M3O7 compounds cannot be synthesized for M=Al or for RE cations smaller than Sm; this limitation is believed to be due to size mismatch between cations within the structure.

SrBi1.8Ce0.2Nb2O9 (SBCN) and SrBi1.8Ce0.2Ta2O9 (SBCT) powders were prepared via solid-state reaction method. X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that the SBCN and SBCT powders have the single phase orthorhom-bic Aurivillius structure at room temperature. The contribution of Raman scattering and FTIR spectroscopy of these samples were relatively smooth and resemble each other. The calcined powders were uniaxially pressed and sintered at 1250?C for 8 h to obtaine dense ceramics. Dielectric constant, loss tangent and AC conductivity of the sintered Ce-doped SrBi2Nb2O9 and SrBi2Ta2O9 ceramics were measured by LCR meter. The Ce-doped SBN (SBCN) ceramics have a higher Curie temperature (TC) and dielectric constant at TC (380?C and ?? ~3510) compared to the Ce-doped SBT (SBCT) ceramics (330?C and ?? ~115) when measured at 100Hz. However, the Ce-doped SBT (SBCT) ceramics have lower conductivity and dielectric loss.

The paper is focused on one of the most important component of Portland clinker-on the tricalcium silicate. The study reported in this article is focuses on the changes in crystallite size of synthetic tricalcium silicate obtained using solid state reaction method. Crystallite size changes are monitored during the grinding in three types of laboratory mills in two different conditions. Changing in crystallite size at various grinding time up to 120 minutes are studied with the aid of X-ray diffraction and using the Scherrer equation. It has been found that the most efficient laboratory mill in terms of speed and fineness of the material was the planetary mill.

The lithium-cobalt oxide LixCoO2 is a promising candidate as highly active cathode material of lithium ion rechargeable batteries. The crystalline-layered lithium cobaltite has attracted increased attention due to recent discoveries of some extraordinary properties such as unconventional transport and magnetic properties. Due to layered crystal structure, Li contents (x) in LixCoO2 might play an important role on its interesting properties. LiCoO2 crystalline cathode material was prepared by using solid-state reaction synthesis, and then LixCoO2 (x<1) has been synthesized by deintercalation of produced single-phase powders. Structure and morphology of the synthesized powders were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Infrared spectroscopy, Impedance analyzer etc. The influence of lithium composition (x) on structural, electronic and optical properties of lithium cobaltite was studied. Temperature dependent electrical resistivity was measured using four-probe technique. While LixCoO2 with x = 0.9 is a semiconductor, the highly Li-deficient phase (0.75 ? x ? 0.5) exhibits metallic conductivity. The ionic conductivity of LixCoO2 (x = 0.5 – 1.15) was measured using impedance spectroscopy and maximum conductivity of Li0.5CoO2 was found to be 6.5×10-6 S/cm at 273 K. The properties that are important for applications, such as ionic conductivity, charge capacity, and optical absorption are observed to increase with Li deficiency.
