The positron annihilation techniques and X-ray diffraction have been used to study the microstructure of the La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 ceramics prepared by the solid-state reaction method at different sintered temperatures (T=1573K, 1623K, 1673K, 1723K, 1773K, 1823K). And the electro-magnetic transport behavior of the samples was measured by VSM and Resistivity modular on PPMS. According to these results, all samples show a perovskite structure, the ferromagnetic-paramagnetic and metal-insulator transitions occur at the transition temperature Tc and TMI, respectively, which is almost the same. For La0.67Ca0.33MnO3 sintered at 1673K, the mean positron lifetime is the largest, the maximum value of the magnetization is achieved on the magnetization-temperature curve at H=0.2mT, while the transition temperature occurs at about 244K.

The high temperature superconductor’s compounds are one of the hot spot field of science, due to their applications in industries. Hg0.8Sb0.2Ba2Ca2Cu3O8+δ and Hg0.8Sb0.2Ba2Ca1Cu2O6+δ, were manufactured using a doable-step of solid state reaction method. The samples were sintered at 800 ° C. The transition temperatures Tc are found from electrically resistively by using four probe techniques. The resistivity become zero when the transition temperature Tc(offset) have 131 and 119 K, and the onset temperature Tc(onset) have 139 K for Hg0.8Sb0.2Ba2Ca2Cu3O8+δ and 132 K for Hg0.8Sb0.2Ba2Ca1Cu2O6+δ. Analysis of X-ray diffraction showed a tetragonal structure with lattice parameters changes for all samples.

AbstractFe3+ undoped and doped CaWO4: Pr3+ phosphors have been successfully synthesised by using the solid-state reaction method. The products were characterised by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), photoluminescence (PL) and fluorescence lifetime testing techniques, respectively. The mean crystallite size (50.7 nm) of CaWO4: Pr3+ is obtained from powder XRD data. PL spectra of both Fe3+ undoped and doped CaWO4: Pr3+ phosphors exhibit excitation peaks at 214, 449, 474, and 487 nm under monitor wavelength at 651 nm, and emission peaks at 532, 558, 605, 621, 651, 691, 712, and 736 nm under blue light (λem=487 nm) excitation. The effect of trace Fe3+ on luminescence properties of CaWO4: Pr3+ phosphor is studied by controlling the doping concentration of Fe3+. The results show that radioactive energy transfers from luminescence centre Pr3+ to quenching centre Fe3+ occurred in Fe3+ doped CaWO4: Pr3+ phosphors. With the increasing concentration of Fe3+, the energy transfer from Pr3+ to Fe3+ is enhanced, and the emission intensity of CaWO4: Pr3+ will be lower. The decay times (5.22 and 4.99 μs) are obtained for typical samples Ca0.995WO4: Pr3+0.005 and Ca0.99275WO4: Pr3+0.005, Fe3+0.00225, respectively. This work shows that nonferrous phosphors can improve the luminescent intensity of the phosphors.

X-ray diffraction, electrical resistivity and ac susceptibility measurements have been carried out on La 1-x Ag x MnO 3 compounds for x=0.05 to 0.30. These samples are found to be in single phase form with [Formula: see text] space group and with typical lattice parameters a=b=5.524Å and c=13.349Å for x=0.05 sample. The Mn–O–Mn bond angles and variance, σ2 are found to increase with doping. Metal-insulator transitions in the temperature range 254 to 259 K have been observed. These materials exhibit paramagnetic to ferromagnetic transitions in the vicinity of metal-insulator transition temperatures. The paramagnetic susceptibility could be analyzed using Curie–Weiss law. All the above samples exhibit colossal magneto-resistivity and its maximum value is found to be 73% for x=0.15 sample at 50 kOe magnetic field.

The electrical–magnetic transport properties of (La0.7Ca0.3MnO3)(1-x)/(BN)x composites has been investigated systemically by conventional solid-state reaction method. The results of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electronic microscopy (SEM) show that BN and LCMO coexist in the composites and BN mainly goes into the grain boundary region without any chemical reaction with La0.7Ca0.3MnO3, which are in accordance with the results of the magnetic measurements. It is very interesting that with increasing of BN content level (x < 0.25), the metal–insulator transition temperature (TP) remains constant (nearly at 275K), and the resistivity increases very slowly. But when x > 0.25, TP shifts to lower temperature and the resistivity increases dramatically. The resistivity threshold of the composites occurred at x = 0.25, and specially the magnetoresistance (MR) reaches a maximum value (about 26.32 %) at 100K in an applied magnetic field of 3kOe. The results also indicate that the doped BN has an important effect on the low field MR (LFMR), which results from spin-polarized tunneling.

The influence of partial substitution of Nd by Gd and Ce on the Nd 2 CuO 4n-type superconductor was studied by using X-ray diffraction measurements. For x = 0.15 Ce the maximum value of critical transition temperature Tc was obtained. The influence of Gd concentration on the lattice parameters and unit-cell volume was studied in the optimal doped sample (x = 0.15 Ce ) and in the samples with 0≤x≤0.2 Ce . The relation between structural parameters and critical transition temperature was evidenced. The transition from the structural normal phase to the distortion phase was evidenced above y = 0.75 Gd in the optimal Ce -doped sample.

Er3+/Yb3+ co-doped InNbO4 phosphors were synthesized using solid state reaction method. Crystal structure was characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), which confirm all obtained phosphors had a monoclinic-wolframite structure and no impurity phase was introduced upon doping. Upon 980 nm excitation, upconversion (UC) emission from Er3+ ions was observed in green and red range. UC emission was obviously enhanced after co-doping Yb3+ ions and reached the maximum for 10 mol% Yb3+ ions. The relation between emission intensity and pump power was performed, revealing that the UC emission result from two-photon processes. Optical temperature sensing property was investigated by exploiting fluorescence intensity ratio (FIR) between 2H11/2 and 4S3/2 levels of Er3+ ions. Its maximum value of absolute sensitivity obtained was 0.0091 K-1, suggesting InNbO4:Er3+/Yb3+ phosphors show potential application in optical thermometry.

The perovskite ([Formula: see text][Formula: see text]([Formula: see text][Formula: see text][Formula: see text]O3, where [Formula: see text] = 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3, ceramics were synthesized by solid-state reaction method. The introductory structural studies were followed through by X-ray diffraction technique and the results have disclosed that all the samples were crystallized into an isolated phase. The Zr substitution in the resulting solid solutions increases the electrical conductivity and the maximum value of ac conductivity has been found to be [Formula: see text]118.8 S [Formula: see text] cm[Formula: see text] for [Formula: see text] = 0.3 at 200[Formula: see text]C (at 1 MHz). The frequency dependence of ac conductivity data follows Jonscher’s power law. The variation of the exponent [Formula: see text] versus temperature follows the nonoverlapping small polaron tunneling (NSPT) model. The dielectric relaxation has been observed to be of non-Debye nature for all measuring temperatures (50–200[Formula: see text]C). The impedance spectroscopy reveals that all the samples exhibit negative temperature coefficient of resistance (NTCR) behavior. The prepared samples (for [Formula: see text] > 1) are supposed to be suitable for cathode materials in SOFCs.

We synthesized the polycrystalline manganite of La5/8Ca3/8MnO3with three different manganese routes prepared through a solid state reaction method. The effects of the manganese route selection on the structure, electrical transport and magneto-transport properties were examined in this study. The samples were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and SEM to identify their structure and morphology. XRD analysis confirmed that all samples were in single phase with orthorhombic structure and belonged to the Pnma space group. The average grain sized samples with manganese route of Mn2O3and MnCO3had a grain size of 1.2–8.7 μm and 2–7.5 μm, respectively. For the MnO2route, the sample had a small melt-like shape with higher porosity. The metal–insulator transition temperature, TMI, for LCMO ( Mn2O3), LCMO ( MnO2) and LCMO ( MnCO3) samples were 270 K, 266 K and 258 K, respectively. All the samples showed negative magneto-resistance with significant increase in value near the TMItemperature. The highest CMR (colossal magneto-resistance) ratio was found in LCMO ( Mn2O3), -22.06% at 270 K, followed by -16.69% for LCMO ( MnO2) at 80 K, and 15.2% for LCMO ( MnCO3) at 100 K in a 1 T magnetic field.

Feasibility of isomorphous substitution in electron diffraction is supported by a calculation of the mean alteration of the electron-diffraction structure factors for hemoglobin crystals caused by substituting two mercury atoms per molecule, following Green, Ingram & Perutz, but with allowance for the proportionality of f to Z3/4 for electron diffraction. This yields a mean net change in F of 12.5%, as contrasted with 22.8% for x-ray diffraction.Use of the hydration chamber in electron diffraction opens prospects for examining many proteins that yield only very thin crystals not suitable for x-ray diffraction. Examination in the wet state avoids treatments that could cause translocation of the heavy-atom labels or distortion of the crystal. Combined with low-fluence techniques, it enables study of the protein in a state as close to native as possible.We have undertaken a study of crystals of rat hemoglobin by electron diffraction in the wet state. Rat hemoglobin offers a certain advantage for hydration-chamber work over other hemoglobins in that it can be crystallized from distilled water instead of salt solutions.
