In this paper an attempt has been made to synthesize undoped and 1wt% Cu doped CdS nanoparticles through chemical co-precipitation method. Prepared particles were characterized to explore their structural and thermoluminescence properties. The X-ray diffraction analysis reveals a hexagonal crystal structure at room temperature. The particle sizes are determined by Scherer formula for both undoped and doped CdS nanoparticles of various concentrations. The average grain size of undoped and Cu doped nanoparticles is found to be 32.81nm and 22.3nm respectively. The thermoluminescence studies of these above samples show TL peaks occurring at temperatures 379,428,471,510 and 550 Kelvin corresponding to activation energy 0.7 eV, 0.9eV, 1.2 eV, 1.4 eV and 1.3eV respectively.

Strontium hexaferrite is a material of choice due its various magnetic applications. Energy losses are a prominent issue in these magnetic materials. To lower these energy losses, we need to improve the resistivity by reducing eddy current losses. In this work nanoparticles of Gadolinium (Gd) doped Sr-hexaferrite (SrFe12-xGdxO19 x =0 .0, 0.1) have been synthesized by co-precipitation method. Structural analysis was done by using X-ray diffraction technique (XRD). It was found that the formation of single phase i.e. hexagonal structure has been achieved when the samples were sintered at 920°C for 20 minutes. AC electrical properties such as conductivity (𝜎ac), dielectric constant (ε′), dielectric loss (tanδ) and impedance (Z); real (Z') and imaginary (Z") parts have been studied as a function of frequency at room temperature. Aim of the work was to enhance the resistivity and was successfully achieved. Gd doped sample is proposed as an energy efficient material to be used in devices working at high frequencies.

Non toxicity, bio compatibility and nanometer sizes regime which is comparable to the size of a cell, makes nanocrystalline Co ferrites particles very proficient. In the present research Zn doped cobalt ferrites were prepared by the chemical co-precipitation method and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) at room temperature for structural analysis. X-ray diffraction patterns confirmed the FCC spinel structure of synthesized particles. Crystallite sizes were calculated from the most intense peak (311) using the Debye-Scherrer formula. The obtained crystallite sizes were in nanometer range for all the samples synthesized at reaction temperature of 70°C. Then samples were sintered at 550°C for 2 hours, characterized again by X-ray diffraction at room temperature. The crystallite sizes and lattice constants for all the samples were calculated again from the data obtained by XRD. DC electrical resistivity and AC electrical transport properties were analyzed. The magnetic properties such as coercivity (Hc) and remanence (Mr) of Co1-xZnxFe2O4for x = 0.0, 0.2, 0.4 were measured at room temperature by vibrating sample magnetometer. Coercivity and remanence were found maximum with minimum value of Zn in Co1-xZnxFe2O4.Observed structural and conduction properties of synthesized nanomaterials were correlated.

ABSTRACTNi/Mg/Al mixed oxides were obtained from hydrotalcite-like precursors by thermal decomposition at 400º, 600º and 800ºC using co-precipitation method at pH 7. The mixed oxides were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) techniques. XRD analysis revealed the formation of NixMg1-xO (x = 0 - 1), α-Al2O3 and traces of MgAl2O4 (NiAl2O4) phases. The diffraction peak positions for MgO or NiO oxides were shifted towards 2θ values higher than simulated for pure bulk oxides that can be attributed to the possible presence of lattice vacancies or surface compressive stress. The evaluated grain size by XRD technique was about 8 -10 nm. It was also detected the presence of microstrains that can be associated with the presence of extended defects in the grains. SEM observations showed that the particles of oxides are formed as agglomerates with the particle sizes of 50 nm up to 200 nm. EDS detected the presence of Mg2+, Ni2+, and Al3+ cations and oxygen in all particles independently on their size. The obtained results revealed the presence of mixture of Ni/Mg/Al oxides in each particle obtained. The oxides calcined at temperatures of 400º and 600ºC were unstable and under air storage they revert to the precursor. The incorporation of Ni2+ in Mg-Al mixed oxides leads to stability of the compounds calcined at 800ºC.

Microstructure And Magnetic Properties

Magnetite nanoparticles have been synthesized by a co-precipitation method under magnetic fields (0~1 T) at room temperature. The as-prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and their microstructure analysis were evaluated on a Mössbauer spectrum. It was found that the Fe 3 O 4 samples produced under a magnetic field of 1 T had a much higher saturation magnetization (15.3 emu/g) than those produced under 0.6 T (7.56 emu/g) and 0 T magnetic fields (6.59 emu/g). This interesting result implies that magnetic fields can affect the growth of Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles and further change the microstructure and crystallinity of Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles. It is expected that this process could also be a promising technique to improve the magnetic properties of other magnetic materials.

La2/3Sr1/3MnO3: Agx (LSMO: Agx) polycrystalline composites were prepared by co-precipitation method. Structure and performance of La2/3Sr1/3MnO3: Agx were investigated by X ray diffraction and R-T measurement. Results show that, all samples are perovskite structure. With the addition of Ag increased, the volume and conductivity of LSMnO: Agx were increased accordingly. The resistivity of the samples (x=0.30, 0.40) is only 10% of the pristine. The TCR of LSMO: Agx (x=0.3) is obtained maximum value of 3.39% as the Z value 0.50. It’s perhaps the proper candidate material to be high temperature electrode or near room temperature bolometer and infrared devices.

Functionalized Mwcnts

Hydroxyapatite (HAp) and hydroxyapatite/multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) composites were obtained by the co-precipitation method, followed by ultrasound-assisted and microwave radiation and thermal treatment at 250 °C. X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed the presence of a hexagonal phase in all the samples, while Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy elucidated the interaction between HAp and MWCNTs. The photoluminescent technique revealed that HAp and the composite with non-functionalized MWCNTs present a blue luminescence, while the composite with functionalized MWCNTs, under UV-vis radiation shows an intense white emission. These findings allowed presentation of a proposal for the use of HAp and HAp with functionalized MWCNTs as potential materials for optoelectronic and medical applications.
