The aim of the work was to check how the introduction of alkali and cobalt ions into a manganese structure can affect the structural disorder and, in consequence, lead to the changes (improvements) of magnetic properties. The high-pressure sintering technique was applied to check if the external factor can modify the magnetization of manganites. Nanocrystalline La0.9A0.1Mn0.9Co0.1O3 (where A is Li, K, Na) powders were synthesized by the combustion technique. The respective powders were used for nanoceramics preparation by the high-pressure sintering technique. The structure and morphology of the compounds were studied by X-ray powder diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Magnetization studies for all compounds were performed in order to check the changes induced by either codoping or the sintering pressure. It was found that the type of the dopant ion and sintering pressure produced significant changes to the magnetic properties of the studied compounds. Alkali ions lead to the stabilization of Co ions in the +2 oxidation state and the formation of positive exchange interactions Mn3+–Mn4+ and Co2+–Mn4+ and the subsequent increase in remanent magnetization. High sintering pressure leads to a decrease in grain size and reduction of long-range ferromagnetic order and lower magnetization.

When processing single crystal X-ray diffraction datasets for twins of Al2Cu sample synthesized by the high-pressure sintering (HPS) method, we have clarified why the crystal structure of Al2Cu was incorrectly solved about a century ago. The structural relationships between all existing Al2Cu phases, including the Owen-, θ-, θ’-, and Ω-Al2Cu phases, were investigated and established based on a proposed pseudo Al2Cu phase. Two potential phases have been built up by adjusting the packing sequences of A/B layers of Al atoms that were inherent in all existing Al2Cu phases. The mechanical, thermal, and dynamical stability of two such novel phases and their electronic properties were investigated by first-principles calculations.

First Time

Nanostructured bulk NiAl materials were prepared at high pressure and temperature (0–5.0 GPa and 600–1500 °C, respectively). The sintered samples were characterized by x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscope, density, and indentation hardness measurements. The results show that NiAl nanoparticles may have a compressed surface shell, which may be the reason why NiAl nanomaterials were difficult to densify sintering using conventional methods and why high-pressure sintering was an effective approach. We also observed that B2-structured NiAl could undergo a temperature-dependent phase transition and could be transformed into Al0.9Ni4.22 below 1000 °C for the first time. It is interesting to note that Vickers hardness decreased as grain size decreased below ∼30 nm, indicating that the inverse Hall-Petch effect may be observed in nano-polycrystalline NiAl (n-NiAl) samples. Moreover, a tentative interpretation was developed for high-pressure nanosintering, based on the shell-core model of nanoparticles.

The high-pressure (HP) modification of CePtSn was prepared under multianvil high-pressure (9.2 GPa) high-temperature (1325 K) conditions from the normal-pressure (NP) modification. Both modifications were investigated by powder and single crystal X-ray data: TiNiSi type, Pnma, a = 746.89(9), b = 462.88(4), c = 801.93(7) pm, wR2 = 0.0487, 452 F2 values, 20 variable parameters for NP-CePtSn, and ZrNiAl type, P6̅2m, a = 756.919(5), c = 415.166(4) pm, wR2 = 0.0546, 252 F2 values, 14 variable parameters for HP-CePtSn. Both modifications are built up from platinumcentered trigonal prisms. Together, the platinum and tin atoms form different three-dimensional [PtSn] networks in which the cerium atoms fill channels. The crystal chemistry and chemical bonding of NP- and HP-CePtSn is discussed. Susceptibility measurements of HP-CePtSn indicate Curie-Weiss behavior above 40 K with an experimental magnetic moment of 2.55(1) μB/Ce atom, indicating trivalent cerium. No magnetic ordering could be detected down to 2 K.

The high pressure and high temperature sintering of α-Si3N4 and γ-Si3N4 with Y2O3-Al2O3-La2O3 as additives were studied under pressures of 5.4 GPa and temperatures of 1420-1770 K. The effects of sintering temperatures and pressures on properties of sintered ceramic samples were investigated with X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The results show that γ-Si3N4 and α-Si3N4 is transformed to β-Si3N4 completely. The highest relative densities and Vickers hardness (HV) of sintered samples are 98.71 and 21.76GPa, respectively. The sintered samples were composed of elongated β-Si3N4 rod crystals with disordered orientation and had intergranular interlocks and uniform and compact microstructure. Pulled out crystal grains on the fractured cross sections were obviously observed by SEM.

New Phase

An (Al,Cu)13(Fe,Cu)4phase of [trideca(aluminium/copper) tetra(iron/copper)] was obtained by the high-pressure sintering (HPS) process of a mixture with composition Al78Cu15Fe7. Structure analysis suggests that Cu atoms can replace both Al and Fe atoms. Such findings support previous anomalous X-ray scattering (AXS) results although deviate from other reports. The new phase adopts the λ-Al13Fe4structure type where Cu atoms partially occupy the 2cand 4isites for Al and Fe atoms, respectively, with occupancies of 0.233 (5) and 0.173 (16).
