The synthesis and characterization of nickel-based aerogel prepared using nickel chloride as the precursor via sol-gel method is described. The addition of the polyacrylic acid as an template to the solution of NiCl2•6H2O can guide the gelation in the reaction to build a three dimensional open structure. The aerogel has been characterized using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), highresolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), nitrogen adsorption desorption analysis and powder X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results indicate that the nickel-based aerogel has a typical three dimensional structure made up of spherical particles with an open porous network and has high surface area about 192 m2/g, average pore diameter about 40nm. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns show that the aerogel prepared at room temperature belongs to amorphous material. The synthesis of nickel-based aerogel, using polyacrylic acid as an template, is especially unique in our experiment.

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.

A sol-gel method was applied to prepare precursors for NdBa2Cu3O7-x (Nd-123) and SmBa2Cu3O7-x (Sm-123) superconducting compounds. The sintered products were examined by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The powders sintered at 950 and 1000 ?C showed the formation of monophasic Nd-123 and Sm-123 superconductors. The formation of Nd-123 and Sm-123 phases from the sol-gel derived precursors at higher temperatures (1050 and 1100 ?C), however, did not proceed due to the melting process. The correlation between the TC for different lanthanides (Ln Ho, Nd and Sm) in the Ln-123 compound and orthorhombicity and oxygen stoichiometry were also estimated.

Multiferroic nanocrystalline Bi[Formula: see text]Sr[Formula: see text]FeO3 ([Formula: see text], 0.05, 0.1) samples were synthesized using the sol–gel method and characterized by powder X-ray diffraction, Mössbauer spectroscopy and SQUID system. The small-angle X-ray diffraction analysis showed that the sample underwent phase transition from rhombohedral to pseudo-cubic structure with the enhancement of Sr content. In addition, impurity peaks gradually diminished, indicating that content of impurities of samples reduced. Furthermore, it can be determined that there is only Fe[Formula: see text] in all the samples and impurity phase that existed in the samples was Bi[Formula: see text]FeO[Formula: see text] by fitting Mössbauer spectra. It is further confirmed that Bi[Formula: see text] Sr[Formula: see text]FeO3 samples were generated by oxygen vacancy equilibrium valence state when Sr[Formula: see text] ions replaced Bi[Formula: see text] ions. The change of quadrupole splitting indicated that a low concentration of Sr[Formula: see text] ions diffused homogeneously in the sample. Magnetization measurement showed that the magnetization of the sample increased gradually with the substitution of Bi[Formula: see text] by nonequivalent Sr[Formula: see text] ions, which can be ascribed to the decrease of grain size and the increase of oxygen vacancy and specific surface in the samples.

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.

Sol Gel Process

Nanostructured SnO2 was prepared based on the sol-gel method used in the preparation of crystalline metal oxides. Sol-gel process can be described as a forming network of oxide polycondensation reaction of a molecular precursor in a liquid. Six experiments were carried out. Morphological structures and chemical composition were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) after calcination. It is noted that TEM images show that the spheres consist from nanocrystals, quantitative EDS analysis of the chemical composition shows an absence of the chlorine, which is a desired fact. For structural characterization of the material we used X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). The X-ray diffraction pattern for all samples indicates peaks which are agreeable with standard diffraction pattern of SnO2. The particle size of all samples was in the range of 28-92 nm calculated according to Scherrer equation.

Cr2O3 nano-powders were successfully fabricated with using chromium nitrate and aqueous ammonia as starting material and urea as dispersant agent by sol-gel method. The formation of crystalline phase during heat treatment of dry gel was characterized by differential thermogravimetry (DTG) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques and the temperature of calcination was determined as 400°C. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was utilized to observe the morphology of the as-fabricated Cr2O3 particles. The results showed that Cr2O3 particles are spherical or square with little agglomeration and a diameter of about 30 nm. The specific surface area of Cr2O3 particles was measured as 44.23 m2/g by Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET).

Synthesis of strontium oxide nanoparticles was carried out by sol –gel method using strontium nitrate and sodium hydroxide at room temperature which is very simple and cost effective. The characterization of strontium oxide nanoparticles was done using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infra-red (FTIR). X-ray diffraction pattern indicates that the nanoparticles are crystalline in nature. The crystalline size of strontium oxide nanoparticle was calculated by Debye-Scherrer formula. The crystalline sizes are about 80nm. The morphology of nanoparticles was observed and investigated using SEM. The material at room temperature, calcined at 2000C, 400 0C and 6000C respectively shows pseudo spherical shape, cubic form and finally it becomes cylindrical this shows that there is a agglomeration with increase in temperature. FTIR spectrum of strontium oxide shows the peak at 854.64 cm-1 which is due to Sr -O bond.

Titanium dioxide (TiO2) thin films based interdigitated electrodes (IDEs) have been synthesized using sol-gel method with hydrochloric acid (HCl) as catalyst. The prepared TiO2 solution has been deposited onto silicon dioxide (SiO2) substrates via spin-coating technique. Film was annealed at 500 °C and aluminium (Al) IDEs have been fabricated. Finally the X-ray diffraction (XRD) shows high intensity of both anatase and rutile peaks exist on 10 nm TiO2 thin film. Average crystallite size of the nanoparticles is seen to be 25 nm. UvVisible spectroscopic (UvVis) technique was used for the transmittance spectra characterization of the sample.
