Polycrystalline sample of PZT (52/48) was prepared by solid-state reaction method. X-ray analysis indicated the formation of single-phase. Electrical and impedance-spectroscopy plots were employed to analyze the electrical behavior of the sample, as a function of frequency, in the range of 0.01 Hz to 1 M Hz at different temperatures. Spectroscopic and complex plots indicated non-Debye dielectric relaxation. Detailed electrical studies revealed that the conduction is through hoping of electrons (extrinsic region) at lowers temperature and migration of oxygen vacancies at high temperature (intrinsic region). The results are explained using Euryod’s conduction model and confirmed with pyroelectric and ferroelectric data.

The dielectric spectroscopy of a new ceramic material; Pb0.8La0.2Fe0.1Cr0.1Ti0.8O3 has been studied. The compound was prepared by solid-state reaction method. The structural study from X-ray diffraction technique shows the formation of polycrystalline sample with orthorhombic crystal system at room temperature. Dielectric property of this material has been characterized in the temperature range of 25–450°C and frequency range of 100 Hz – 1 MHz respectively. The phase transition temperatures were at two different temperatures for each frequency. The nature of ac conductivity shows the negative temperature coefficient of resistance type behavior of the material.

The polycrystalline sample of (BiLi) 1/2 (FeV) 1/2O3 was prepared by a high-temperature solid-state reaction technique. A preliminary X-ray structural analysis exhibited the formation of single-phase compound with an orthorhombic structure. Detailed studies of electrical properties of the compound, investigated in a wide frequency range (1kHz-1MHz) at different temperatures by complex impedance spectroscopy (CIS) technique, showed that these properties of the material are strongly dependent on frequency and temperature. Ac conductivity is found to obey the Johnscher’s law. The M-H curve shows the presence of ferromagnetism in the studied compound.

Samples of CaCu 3 Ti 4 O 12 (CCTO) ceramics were prepared by solid state reaction method. X-ray diffraction analysis confirmed single phase formation for the powder calcined at 1173 K. Sintering was done at different temperatures viz. 1348 K, 1373 K and 1398 K with a fixed heating rate of 3 K/min. Detailed study of dielectric properties was carried out for the CCTO samples sintered at 1373 K for different duration of holding times (2 h and 10 h). It is found that dielectric properties are sensitive to both sintering time and temperature. With increasing sintering time from 2 h to 10 h dielectric constant increases from ∼2.1 × 104 to ∼2.5 × 104 measured at 1 kHz at room temperature. Impedance spectroscopy has been used for separating out of grain and grain boundary contributions to the overall electrical properties.

In this research, influence of adding Li2CO3 (at 0%, 2%, 4%, 6%) on electrical and magnetic properties of [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]Fe2O4 (with 60% Ni and 40% Mg) ferrite has been studied. The samples are prepared by solid state reaction method and sintered at 1300∘C for 6[Formula: see text]h. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns show the samples belong to single-phase cubic structure without any impurity phase. The magnetic properties (saturation magnetization and coercivity) of the samples have been investigated by VSM and found that the higher concentration of Li2CO3 reduces the hysteresis loss. DC resistivity increases with Li2CO3 contents whereas it decreases initially and then becomes constant at lower value with temperature which indicates that the studied samples are semiconductor. The dielectric dispersion occurs at a low-frequency regime and the loss peaks are formed in a higher frequency regime, which are due to the presence of resonance between applied frequency and hopping frequency of charge carriers. Notably, the loss peaks are shifted to the lower frequency with Li2CO3 additions.

Single-phase polycrystalline samples of RBa2Cu2.9Zn0.1Oy (R = Y, Nd, Gd, Er, and Tm) (ZnR123) were synthesized using the standard solid-state reaction method. They were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope. XRD shows that all samples consist essentially of a single phase and retain the orthorhombic structure. The structure of the samples was refined by the Rietveld method with the help of the bond valence sum method. The variation of the lattice parameters and some meaningful bond angles and lengths with the ionic radius are discussed. In these compounds, the variations of the buckling angles Cu2–O(2,3)–Cu2 and Cu2–Cu2–O(2,3) are unique: the bond angles Cu2–O3–Cu2 and Cu2–Cu2–O2 increase, whereas the bond angles Cu2–O2–Cu2 and Cu2–Cu2–O3 decrease. The variation of these bond angles brings about a strong curvature of the Cu2O plane. Furthermore, we have found tree fixed triangles formed by the Cu2, O2, and O3 atoms in addition to another fixed triangle O1–Ba–O1 observed for the first time. BVS of Cu2 atom shows a specific and unique variation compared with other compounds.

As a new candidate material for the ceramic layer in thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) system, La3NbO7 was synthesized with La2O3 powder and Nb2O5 powder by solid state reaction. The stating powders with a mole ratio of La to Nb of 3:1 were mixed and then the mixture was calcined under the different temperatures(800°C, 1000°C, 1200°C) and dwell times(2h, 6h, 10h). The phase structure of the powder was observed by X–ray diffraction(XRD), and the microstructure of the sample was observed by scanning electron microscope(SEM). The effect of calcination temperature and dwell Time on the phase formation were examined. The results indicate that the La3NbO7 powder with single phase can be synthesized successfully at 1200°C for 10h in air, and the La3NbOsub>7 powders synthesized have an ultra-fine particle size of 0.5˜1µm with a granular particle shape. With the temperature increasing, LaNbO4/sub> was synthesized firstly and then La3NbO7 was synthesized with a mole ratio of La2O3 to LaNbO4 of 1:1.

SrBi1.8Ce0.2Nb2O9 (SBCN) and SrBi1.8Ce0.2Ta2O9 (SBCT) powders were prepared via solid-state reaction method. X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that the SBCN and SBCT powders have the single phase orthorhom-bic Aurivillius structure at room temperature. The contribution of Raman scattering and FTIR spectroscopy of these samples were relatively smooth and resemble each other. The calcined powders were uniaxially pressed and sintered at 1250?C for 8 h to obtaine dense ceramics. Dielectric constant, loss tangent and AC conductivity of the sintered Ce-doped SrBi2Nb2O9 and SrBi2Ta2O9 ceramics were measured by LCR meter. The Ce-doped SBN (SBCN) ceramics have a higher Curie temperature (TC) and dielectric constant at TC (380?C and ?? ~3510) compared to the Ce-doped SBT (SBCT) ceramics (330?C and ?? ~115) when measured at 100Hz. However, the Ce-doped SBT (SBCT) ceramics have lower conductivity and dielectric loss.

A development of synthetic process via rare earth complex precursors was applied to a formation of rare earth manganites which can not be easily formed by conventional (normal) process. Several compounds of rare earth manganites with various structures were successfully synthesized by this method and their crystal structures were identified by powder X-ray diffractometry. Both of the orthorhombic and rhombohedral LaMnO3phases were prepared. LnMn2O5phase was more easily prepared by this method than by another method. The solid solution of (Sr,La)2MnO4phase for various compositions were tried to prepare a single phase, especially for a composition region Sr/La ratio < 1. since this phase is normally formed for only region of Sr/La ratio .. 1 by the solid state reaction method.

AbstractIn this work the X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, Raman and dielectric studies of lead free perovskite (1 – x)Ba0.06(Na1/2Bi1/2)0.94TiO3–xNaNbO3 (0 ⩽ x ⩽ 1.0) ceramics, prepared using a standard solid state reaction method, were investigated. X-ray diffraction studies of all the ceramics suggested the formation of single phase with crystal structure transforming from rhombohedral-tetragonal to orthorhombic symmetry with the increase in NaNbO3 content. Raman spectra also confirmed the formation of solid solution without any new phase. Dielectric studies showed that the phase transition is of diffusive character and diffusivity parameter decreases with increasing NaNbO3 content. The compositional fluctuation was considered to be the main cause of diffusivity.

The higher mechanical strength of Al87Ce3Ni8.5Mn1.5 nanophase amorphous composites has been obtained with two methods. The first nanophase amorphous composites are directly produced by the single roller spin quenching technology. The method taken for the second nanophase amorphous composites is at first to obtain amorphous single-phase alloy, followed by annealed at different temperatures .The formative condition, the microstructure, the particle size, the volume fraction of α-Al phase and microhardness of nanophase amorphous composites etc have been investigated and compared by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The microstructure of composites produced by the second method is higher than the former, the fabricated material structure of the system is more uniform and the process is easier to control.
