The final pH value of the mixed solution was used 2M NaOH to adjust the pH was 8 and treated at 100-200 oC for 4-6 h in a hydrothermal vessel. The black fine powder was obtained after dried at 100 oC for 5 h. The phase and structure of CuO microparticle were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD). A single phase monoclinic structure synthezied by hydrothermal method at 200 oC for 4 and 6 h was obtained without calcination steps. The morphology CuO microparticle was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). It was likely grain in shape and the particle size in range of 2.94-4.06 μm. The element composition of CuO microparticle was indicated by energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDX). The chemical compositions showed the characteristic X-ray energy of copper (Kα = 0.98 keV) and oxygen (Kα = 0.53 keV), respectively. The functional group of CuO microparticle was indentified by Fourier transform spectrophotometry (FTIR). The wavenumber at 690, 514 and 437 cm-1 was corresponded to vibration of Cu-O stretching.

Nitrogen-doped titanium dioxide (N-doped TiO2) nanopowder was successfully prepared by the hydrothermal method. Titanium isopropoxide and urea were used as the starting precursors. The hydrothermal reaction was controlled at 200 °C for 2, 4 and 6 h. The white powder was obtained and dried for 24h. The crystal structure was identified by X-ray diffraction (XRD). A single phase of anatase structure was obtained without calcination steps. The morphology was investigated by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). The particles were irregular in shape and highly agglomerated. The chemical composition was determined by energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDXS). The characteristic X-ray energy of titanium (Kα = 4.51 keV and Kβ = 4.93 keV), oxygen (Kα = 0.52 keV) and nitrogen (Kα = 0.39 keV) were observed. The functional group was identified by Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometry (FTIR). The wavenumbers in the range 668 to 1389 cm-1 corresponded to vibrations of Ti–O–Ti bond. The wavenumber in the range of 1442 to 1500 cm-1 could be attributed to the nitrogen species in the TiO2 network.

Lithium iron phosphate (LiFePO4) was prepared by hydrothermal synthesis method using FeSO4·7H2O and LiH2PO4 as resource of Li and Fe. The ratio of Li: Fe was maintained 1:1. The results suggested that pH value played a crucial role in the synthesis of LiFePO4, especially for the generation of impurities. We found that adding citric acid to the precursor was an effective way for chelating ferrous ions, thereby preventing the undesirable iron compounds during hydrothermal treatment. The particle morphology and the crystal orientation of the prepared LiFePO4 particles were investigated by the XRD and SEM results. The X-ray diffraction pattern of the samples indicated that single-phase LiFePO4 were successfully synthesized by hydrothermal method with a stoichiometric 1:1 ratio of Li :Fe.

Single-phase nanocrystalline YIG powders have been successfully synthesized through chemical co-precipitation methods. The influence of pH value of the precursor solution and calcinating conditions (temperatures ranging from 700 to 900°C and times ranging from 0.5 to 12 hours) on the purity and grain size of the single-phase nanocrystalline YIG powders were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) technique. The results show that a pure single-phase YIG powder was obtained as the pH value of precursor solution above 10 and the YIG grain grows bigger as calcinating temperature and time increased. Finally, the optimal condition to form single-phase nanocrystalline YIG with the smallest grain size is calcinating at 750°C for 7 hours.
