This study proposes a novel sol-gel method of fabricating the two-dimensional flakes polycrystalline zinc oxide (ZnO). Apply zinc acetate dehydrate in glycerol and hydrolyzed to get the precursor zinc alkoxide particles at 160°C, and self-assemble into flakes ZnO nanostructures, and then got higer crystallinity polycrystalline ZnO after calcination for one hour at 500°C. Field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) was used to observe the morphology of the flakes. Its size got to a few μm2. Analyze the crystal structure and crystallinity by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). After calcination for one hour at 500°C, we can determine it is the hexagonal wurtzite structure of ZnO. And TGA/DSC to observe the loss and phase change of the solution. The Study has successfully synthesized ZnO polycrystalline flakes by sol-gel method.

Abstract Un-doped and ZnAlxO(1.5x + 1):0.1% Tb3+ (ZAOT) nano-powders were synthesized via citrate sol-gel method. The Alx moles were varied in the range of 0.25 ≤ x ≤ 5.0. The X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) data revealed that for the x < 1.5, the prepared samples crystal structure consists of mixed phases of the cubic ZnAl2O4 and hexagonal ZnO phases, while for the x ≥ 1.5 the structure consists of single phase of cubic ZnAl2O4. This was confirmed by the Raman and Fourier-Transform Infrared (FTIR) vibrational spectroscopy. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) showed that varying Alx moles influences the morphology while Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) shows the dual morphology at x < 1.5. The photoluminescence (PL) revealed intense and distinct emissions attributed to both the host and Tb3+ transitions. The emission intensity highly depends on the Alx moles. The International Commission on Illumination (CIE) colour chromaticity showed that the emission colour could be tuned by varying the Alx moles.

A new process was developed for synthesizing tungsten-doped vanadium dioxide VO2(M) from ammonium metavanadate. The process includes obtaining V2O5by pyrolysing NH4VO3, doping tungsten in V2O5by sol-gel method, and reducing V2O5to VO2(M) with hydrazine by hydrothermal method. X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were applied to characterizing the product. The experimental results indicated that tungsten doped VO2(M) nanoparticles were successfully synthesized. The product VO2(M) presents mainly rod-like and block-like morphology. The phase transition temperature decreases with tungsten doped amount increasing, the phase transition takes place over the range from 36.23°C to 62.16°C and the largest enthalpy of the phase transition is 16.24J/g.

ABSTRACTBa0.6Sr0.4TiO3 (BST) thin films were deposited on La0.5Sr0.5CoO3 (LSCO) buffered Ti substrates. Both BST and LSCO were prepared by sol-gel method. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) analysis were used to investigate the effect of LSCO sol concentration on the crystallinity and surface morphology of the films. The results show that with the increase of LSCO sol concentration, BST films show variation of the structure and dielectric properties. BST films for LSCO of 0.2 mol/L exhibit a better crystallinity and improved dielectric properties, with the tunability, dielectric constant and tanδ of 30%, 420 and 0.028 respectively.

The growth of hydroxyapatite, a calcium phosphate, on silica particles prepared by the sol-gel method is reported. The size of the silica sols was controlled by changing the pH of water before the mixing with the alcoxide. Particle size profiles of sols were obtained by using dynamical light scattering. The characterisation of the composites, of nanometer sizes, was performed by employing X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy.

Thin films of LiNbO3 were fabricated on sapphire(012), MgO(OOl), and Si(111) substrates by the sol-gel process. Under optimized conditions, films deposited onto sapphire(012) were epitaxially grown. Preferred orientations, however, were not observed in the films on MgO(001) and Si(111) by x-ray diffraction measurements. Morphology of the epitaxial films on sapphire(012) was examined by scanning electron microscopy, which indicated that the films were smooth and had a pore-free surface. Electrical and optical measurements on the epitaxial films revealed that the properties of the films were very similar to those of the single crystalline LiNbO3, while films deposited onto Si(111) did not show any orientational behaviors. The highest quality films with epitaxy were obtained only on sapphire(012). The remaining substrates appeared to be not suitable for growing epitaxial LiNbO3 films by the sol-gel method.
