Eu3+-doped Sr10(PO4)6(OH)2–Sr3(PO4)2 (SrHAp-TSP) composites were obtained via the microwave-stimulated hydrothermal method and post-heat-treated from 750 to 950 °C. Concentration of the Eu3+ ions was set to be 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 5 mol% in a ratio of the strontium ions molar content. The structural and morphological properties were investigated by X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) techniques. The average particle size of the studied materials annealed at 750, 850 and 950 °C were counted about 100, 131 and 173 nm, respectively. The luminescence properties depending on the dopant ion concentration, heat-treatment temperature, excitation wavelength and temperature were investigated. In the emission spectra, a broad peak corresponding to the 4f65d1 → 4f7 (8S7/2) emission of Eu2+ ions as well as narrow 4f-4f transitions typical for Eu3+ ions can be observed. The luminescence intensity of the 1 mol% Eu3+:Sr10(PO4)6(OH)2–Sr3(PO4)2 was measured depending on the ambient temperature in the range of 80–550 K. The CIE 1931 (International Commission on Illumination) chromaticity diagram was determined from emission spectra measured in 80, 300 and 550 K. The reduction mechanism of the Eu3+ to the Eu2+ was explained by the charge compensation mechanism based on the Kröger–Vink-notation. The decay times were measured and the Judd–Ofelt (J–O) theory was applied to analyze the observed structural and spectroscopic features.

Tb3+ and Eu3+  ions co-doped containing monoclinic GdPO4 nanocrystals were successfully obtained by a straightforward combustion method. The crystal structure and optical characteristics were investigated by methods: XRD, photoluminescence spectra (PL). The XRD result indicates the GdPO4:10%Tb, x%Eu  had monoclinic phase and the average particle size was about 10 nm. Under excitation wavelength at 394 nm, photoluminescent emission spectra of GdPO4:10%Tb, x%Eu nanopowders show strong characteristic emission of Eu3+ ions  and no characteristic emission of Tb3+ ions was found. However, under the excitation of 273 nm or 368 nm, the emission spectra of the samples were shown characteristic emission of Tb3+ ions with 5D4 - 7FJ (J=3-6) transitions and Eu3+ ions with 5D0-7FJ (J=0-4) transitions.

L10 ordered FePt and FePtCu nanoparticles (NPs) with a good dispersion were successfully fabricated by a simple, green, one-step solid-phase reduction method. Fe (acac)3, Pt (acac)2, and CuO as the precursors were dispersed in NaCl and annealed at different temperatures with an H2-containing atmosphere. As the annealing temperature increased, the chemical order parameter (S), average particle size (D), coercivity (Hc), and saturation magnetization (Ms) of FePt and FePtCu NPs increased and the size distribution range of the particles became wider. The ordered degree, D, Hc, and Ms of FePt NPs were greatly improved by adding 5% Cu. The highest S, D, Hc, and Ms were obtained when FePtCu NPs annealed at 750 °C, which were 0.91, 4.87 nm, 12,200 Oe, and 23.38 emu/g, respectively. The structure and magnetic properties of FePt and FePtCu NPs at different annealing temperatures were investigated and the formation mechanism of FePt and FePtCu NPs were discussed in detail.

Abstract Nanocrystalline α-Fe2O3 is synthesized by sol-gel technique. The prepared nanomaterial was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), SEM, TEM, Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, Vibrating Sample Magnetometry (VSM) and photoluminescence (PL) techniques. X-ray powder diffraction analysis confirmed the formation of α-Fe2O3. Electron microscopy showed spherical morphologies with an average particle size of 30-40 nm. The magnetic property of the prepared material was studied by VSM at room temperature. VSM study shows superparamagnetic nature of the synthesized nanoparticles. Photoluminescence (PL) emission spectra show intense broad emission band centered at 570 nm with 393 nm excitation indicating its usefulness for w-LED application. The CIE-chromaticity color coordinates of prepared material were calculated. The photocatalytic activity of the α-Fe2O3 nanoparticles was analyzed and the nanopowder exhibited good photocatalytic activity for the removal AO7 from its aqueous solution.

AbstractIn the present investigation, an attempt has been made to establish a new chemical route for synthesis of the nanostructured mixed oxide ferrite powders. By using this chemical method a variety of ferrite powders having spinel structure and doped with Co, Ni, Mn, Zn etc has been prepared. In this method nitrate salts of the different metals were used as starting materials. The aqueous solutions of the metal nitrates were mixed according to the molar ration of the compositions. Then the mixtures were mixed with an aqueous solution of water soluble polymer (polyvinyl alcohol). This mixture after drying yield fluffy brown powders. These powders were then calcined at different temperatures ranging from 400 °C to 700 °C. Nanostructured powders were obtained from the thermal decomposition of the brown powders. The powders, prepared by calcinations at different temperatures, were characterized by using X-Ray diffraction analysis, IR spectroscopy, TGA/DTA, and TEM. It was observed that the average particle size of the powders are in nanometer scale with a narrow size distribution. The average particle size of the powders was increased with the increase of calcinations temperature.This chemical method has proved to provide a convenient process for the preparation of nanostructured ceramic powders at comparatively low temperatures and offers the potential of being a simple and cost-effective route.

We report measurements of the thermal conductivity of aqueous suspensions of aluminum oxide nanoparticles with nominal diameters of 20nm, 30nm, and 45nm and at volume concentrations up to 10%. Potential complications in the pulsed transient hot-wire technique for characterizing nanofluids are examined, which motivate the development of a microhot strip setup with a small thermal time constant. The average particle size is monitored for samples subjected to different durations of sonication and the thermal conductivity is determined at two different temperatures for each of the samples. The present data do not reveal any anomalous enhancement in the thermal conductivity previously reported for comparable nanofluids. The concentration dependence of the thermal conductivity can be explained using the conventional effective medium model with a physically reasonable set of parameters.

AbstractTwo new blue emitting phosphors, SrZnO2:Pb2+ and Ce3+ were synthesized by adipic acid and sucrose templated sol-gel routes, respectively. The resulting phosphor particles were fine, nanocrystalline and pure. The optimum activator concentrations were found to be 1 mol% Pb2+ and 12 mol% Ce3+. Two excitation bands centered at 283 and 317 nm, plus a weak shoulder at 275 nm were observed for Pb2+ doped samples, however only one broad excitation band with a maximum at 294 nm was observed for Ce3+ doped samples fired at 1000 °C for 2h. The emission spectra of SrZnO2:Pb2+ showed a very broad band extending from 374 to 615 nm with a maximum at ~455 nm which was ascribed to the 3P1 ¡æ 1S0 transition on the Pb2+ ions allowed by the strong spin-orbit (SO) coupling. Similarly, SrZnO2:Ce3+ showed a broad emission band extending from 374 to 609 nm and centered at 467 nm. This broad emission was attributed to the 5d1 ¡æ 4f1 transition of Ce3+ ions. The lower level 2F5/2 of the 4f1 is populated but the level 2F7/2 is almost empty at room temperature where all measurements were taken. The luminescence properties of Ce3+, K+ co-doped SrZnO2 revealed that the characteristic band locations remained the same and the ratio of emission to excitation intensities were constant. X-ray diffraction patterns showed that the SrZnO2 phase started to form at 900 °C (after 2 hrs), and the single-phase SrZnO2 obtained at 1000 °C. SEM micrographs of both phosphors have a rounded and filled morphology for individual particles with an approximate diameter of 50-250 nm. Dynamic light scattering studies revealed that average particle size is around 1 ¥ìm for both phosphors.

The porous nature of alumina has been investigated using various techniques. The values obtained for moisture content, surface area, pore volume, average particle size and porosity were 22%, 116 m2/g, 0.76 cm3/g, 17.0±0.5 μm and 68.0%, respectively. The adsorption isotherms of NdIII, PrIII and ErIII on alumina from aqueous solution have been obtained at different temperatures. All these adsorption isotherms obey the Langmuir, Freundlich and Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherm equations. Thermodynamic parameters such as the free energy, entropy and enthalpy of adsorption have been computed and interpreted. It is noteworthy that the adsorption of PrIII and NdIII increases with decreasing temperature while the reverse is observed for ErIII.

In this work, PrFeO3 nanoparticles were synthesized by modified co-precipitation method and annealed at different temperatures up to 850?C. The annealed PrFeO3 nanoparticles have single phase orthorhombic structure and the average particle size of 25-30 nm. Due to the very small particle size the prepared PrFeO3 nanoparticles are capable of being used as photocatalyst materials thanks to their strong adsorption bands at 230-400 nm and 400-800 nm observed from the UV-Vis spectra. Additionally, the PrFeO3 nanoparticles are paramagnetic materials with Hc ~ 10Oe and Mr ~ 0. These findings demonstrate their potential use not only as photocatalysts, but also as magnetic materials.

Morphological Studies

Gas permeability and morphological properties of nanocomposites prepared by the mixing of poly(lactic acid) (PLA), poly(butylene succinate) (PBS), and clay was investigated. While the composition of PLA and PBS polymers was fixed as 80% and 20% by weight, respectively, for all the nanocomposites, clay contents varied from 1 to 10 wt%. From the morphological studies using both wide angle X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy, the nanocomposite having 1 wt% of clay was considered to have a mixed morphology of intercalated and delaminated structure, while some clusters or agglomerated particles were detected for nanocomposites having 3 and more than 3 wt% of clay content. However, the average particle size of the dispersed PBS phase was reduced significantly from 7 μm to 30–40 nm with the addition of clay in the blend. The oxygen barrier property was improved significantly as compared to the water vapor. A model based on gas barrier property was used for the validation of the oxygen relative permeabilities of PLA/PBS/clay nanocomposites. PLA/PBS/clay nanocomposites validated the Bharadwaj model up to 3 wt% of clay contents only, while for nanocomposites of higher clay contents the Bharadwaj model was invalid due to the clusters and agglomerates formed.
