Negative temperature coefficient (NTC) ceramics with general composition Ni0.6Mn2Si0.4-xAlxO4 (0≤x≤0.04) were prepared by conventional solid-state reaction method and were investigated for cationic distribution and electrical properties. X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed that the Si cations occupied the tetrahedral site. The valence states of Mn ions were characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectral (XPS). The results showed that Mn4+ content decreased from 0.19 mol to 0.185 mol when the Si molar content declined from 0.4 to 0.1, i.e. the content of Mn4+ was 0.197mol when x was equal to 0.4. Besides, the resistivity (ρ25) reached the minimum value when the Si molar content was 0 (ρ25=4.07×104Ω·cm).

We synthesized lead-free piezoelectric (Bi0.5Na0.5-xKx)TiO3 (BNKT) ceramics using a conventional solid-state reaction method. We have investigated the structural and electrical properties of the materials with x = 0.05 to 0.40. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis suggests that the BNKT ceramics show the transition from rhombohedral to tetragonal structure. The ratio of the tetragonal structure increased continuously in accordance with the increasing composition of x. The sample of x = 0.10 showed a similar ratio between the tetragonal and rhombohedral structures. Frequency-dependent dielectric measurements showed a sort of relaxor properties emerged with increasing x composition, this effect may be interpreted in terms of the formation of polar nano-regions (PNRs) in samples. The value of remnant polarization (Pr) decreases rapidly as x increases beyond the point of x = 0.10 from 25.3 μC/cm2 to 5.9 μC/cm2. On the contrary, as for inverse piezoelectric coefficient (d33*), a higher value of d33* (336 pm/V) at x = 0.10, was observed when compared with x = 0.05 (d33* = 51 pm/V). These results can be explained by the formation of PNRs and their variations with the external applied field. We here propose a possible mechanism showing the effects of dipolar defects, which can be resulted from the K ion substitution on (Bi,Na)TiO3 (BNT) ceramics.

In this research, the Bi0.5(Na0.80K0.20)0.5Ti0.99Ti0.10O3 were prepared via a conventional solid-state reaction method, and their properties were related with calcination temperature. The crystalline structure of BNKTZ ceramics was assessed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) method. Other physical properties, i.e. porosity, density, microstructure, and electrical properties were determined. XRD patterns for all samples showed a pure perovskite, where coexistence between rhombohedral and tetragonal phases was observed for some conditions. The optimum dielectric constant was obtained for the ceramic calcined at 800 °C. The ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties were improved and showed the highest values for the calcination temperature around 900-1000°C. The improvements of ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties were proposed to be due to the ceramics had compositions closed to MPB composition. Furthermore, density also had a contribution for the improvements.

Present investigation provides experimental studies on cylindrical dielectric resonator antennas (CDRAs) fabricated from SrTi1-xZrxO3ceramic with different substitution of Zr in place of Ti for (0 ≤ x ≤1). Ceramic powder were prepared using conventional solid state reaction method. X-ray Diffraction exposes physical properties Zr-doped SrTiO3which exhibit phase transition from cubic, tetragonal to orthorhombic phase. The electrical properties such as dielectric constant (εr) and dielectric loss (tan δ) were studied in variation of temperatures and frequencies. At room temperature the dielectric constant decreased from 240 to 21 with increase of Zr content however the amazing result was obtained for multiband antenna by Zr content. The dielectric loss obtain shows very low loss value roughly below 0.07 for all samples. The variations of return loss, resonance frequency and bandwidth of CDRAs at their respective resonant frequencies are studied experimentally.

The polycrystalline samples of manganites perovskite [Formula: see text] with B-sites vacancies were synthesized using the conventional solid-state reaction method. The results based on the X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) analyses show that the samples with [Formula: see text] have a secondary phase of lanthanum oxides. It indicates there is a maximum vacancy content at the B-sites with [Formula: see text]. By X-ray Photoelectron Spectra (XPS), the ionicities of oxygen were determined to be 0.762, 0.842, and 0.886, corresponding to [Formula: see text], 0.03, and 0.05, respectively. The B-sites vacancy plays an important role in magnetic performances: (i) B-sites vacancy changes the contents and the average cant angle of Mn cations, and makes the specific saturation magnetization at 100 K and 300 K increase, and then decrease rapidly. (ii) The Curie temperature changes in a small range from 363.93 K to 366.00 K, resulting from both the double exchange interaction increasing and the double exchange path destroyed by the vacancies. (iii) The magnetoresistance (MR) at room temperature achieves 6.97% in the [Formula: see text] sample, whose value is larger than that of [Formula: see text] sample.

Polycrystalline Cu substituted Ni–Zn ferrites with chemical composition Ni[Formula: see text]Zn[Formula: see text]-Cu[Formula: see text]Fe2O4 (x = 0.00 to 0.25 in steps of 0.05) have been prepared by citrate gel autocombustion method. The samples for electrical properties have been sintered at 900[Formula: see text]C for 4 h. The X-ray diffraction patterns of all samples indicate the formation of single phase spinel cubic structure. The value of lattice parameter is decreases with increasing Cu concentration. The estimated cation distribution can be derived from X-ray diffraction intensity calculations and IR spectra. The tetrahedral and octahedral bond lengths, bond angles, cation–cation and cation–anion distances were calculated by using experimental lattice parameter and oxygen positional parameters. It is observed that Cu ions are distributed in octahedral site and subsequently Ni and Fe ions in tetrahedral site. The grain size of all samples has been calculated by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) images. The variations in DC electrical resistivity and dielectric constant have been explained on the basis of proposed cation distribution.

Ceramic sample of La0.70Ba0.30Mn0.40Ti0.60O3 oxide has been prepared by the conventional solid-state reaction method. The sintered sample was characterized by using x-ray diffraction (XRD) and low frequency LCR meter. XRD result shows that the sample has a cubic structure with the existence of impurity phase. The dielectric properties of La0.70Ba0.30Mn0.40Ti0.60O3 measured from room temperature to 200°C shows that the dielectric permittivity is temperature dependence with strong dispersion at low frequencies. A circuit model based on the universal capacitor response function is also being used to represent the dielectric properties of the sample.

Multiferroic Bi 1-x Sm x FeO 3(x = 0.00, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15, 0.2) ceramics were prepared by conventional solid state reaction method. X-ray diffraction measurement was carried out to characterize the crystal structure and to detect the impurities existing in these ceramics. The substitution of rare earth Sm for Bi was found to decrease the impurity phase in BiFeO 3 ceramics. There is strong evidence that both lattice constants a and c of the unit cell become smaller as the Sm 3+ content is increased. The effect of introducing Sm 3+ is shown to decrease the optical band gap for doped sample Bi 1-x Sm x FeO 3. Additionally, the temperature-dependent Raman measurement performed for the lattice dynamics study of Bi 1-x Sm x FeO 3 samples reveals a strong band centered at around 1000–1300 cm-1 which is associated with the resonant enhancement of two-phonon Raman scattering in the multiferroic Bi 1-x Sm x FeO 3 samples. This two-phonon signal is shown to broaden with increasing x. The Raman spectra at low wavenumbers are suggested to be related with magnon in this system.

Europium-doped Na 1.45 La 8.55-8.55x( SiO 4)6( F 0.9 O 1.1)(0.000 ≤ x ≤ 0.045) phosphors were prepared by a conventional solid-state reaction method at 1200°C and their properties were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), and a spectral analysis system. No impurities were observed. The phosphor could be excited at 254 nm, 395 nm and 465 nm to yield a reddish orange emission which was attributed to the 5 D 0 → 7 F j (j = 0–2) transitions of the Eu ion.

The crystal structures of ASnFe(PO4)3 (A=Na2, Ca, Cd) phases, obtained by conventional solid state reaction techniques at (950–1000 °C), were determined at room temperature from X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) using Rietveld analysis. The three materials exhibit the Nasicon-type structure (R3c space group, Z=6) with a random distribution of Sn(Fe) within the framework. Hexagonal cell parameters when A=Na2, Ca and Cd are: a=8.628(1) Å, c=22.151(2) Å; a=8.569(1) Å, c=22.037(2) Å and a=8.587(1) Å, c=21.653(2) Å, respectively. Structural refinements show a partial occupancy of M1 (Na(1)) and M2 (Na(2)) sites in Na2SnFe(PO4)3 leading to the cationic distribution [Na1.22□1.78]M2[Na0.78□0.22]M1SnFe(PO4)3. Ca2+ ions are distributed only in the M1 site of [□3]M2[Ca]M1SnFe(PO4)3. From XRD data, it is difficult to unambiguously distinguish between Cd2+ and Sn4+ ions in CdSnFe(PO4)3. Nevertheless the overall set of cation–anion distances within the Nasicon framework clearly shows that the cationic distribution can be illustrated by the [□3]M2[Cd]M1SnFe(PO4)3 crystallographic formula. Distortion within the [Sn(Fe)(PO4)3] frameworks, in ASnFe(PO4)3 (A=Na2,Ca,Cd) phases, is shown to be related to the M1 site size. © 2004 International Centre for Diffraction Data.
