Dy2O3-TiO2 nanocomposites with different weight percentage (0, 2, 4, 8 & 10)Dy were synthesized bysol-gel method and named as 0DT, 2DT, 4DT, 6DT, 8DT and 10DT. The structural properties of these nanocomposites are characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy. XRD results show that Dy2O3-TiO2 nanocomposites have anatase phase with tetragonal structure. The average crystallite size of the Dy2O3-TiO2 nanocomposites lies between 10 to 18 nm.Coupling of Dy with TiO2 shifts the Raman band to higher wavenumber side indicating the creation of oxygen vacancies in the TiO2 lattice.

Reed Pulp was Raw Material that Pretreated by Four Methods {ultrasonic, Microwave, N, N-Dimethyl Acetamide (DMAc) and Tetrahydrofuran (THF)}. Reed Microcrystalline Cellulose (MCC) was Prepared by the Dilute Hydrochloric Acid Hydrolysis from Pretreated Reed Pulp. the Influences of Pretreatment Methods on Crystalline Type, Crystallinity and Crystallite Size of MCC were Investigated by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). the Results Showed that the Crystallinity of MCC with Four Pretreatment Methods was 68.45%, 62.28%, 63.21% and 69.56%, Respectively. the Average Crystallite Size of MCC Prepared by Hydrolysis after Pretreated by Dmac was the Largest. whereas, the Crystal Type of MCC was Not Changed, it was still the Cellulose Type I. Comprehensive Analysis Indicated that the Effects of MCC Prepared by Hydrolysis after Pretreated by Ultrasonic were the Best.

Chalcogenide Materials

Electrophotographic properties of chalcogenide materials are readily influenced by altering their composition and/or structure. Dark decay and cycle down of photoreceptors utilizing small particle generators are both directly proportional to average crystallite size (ACS). This paper describes a novel chemical method to control the ACS of Se, Te, and Sex Te1−x alloys. These chalcogenide materials are prepared as powders by the reduction or coreduction of SeIV and/or TeIV intermediates with hydrazine, in organic media. To control the ACS of precipitated chalcogens the reaction is carried out at the desired temperature. X-ray diffraction measurements are used to determine the ACS, homogeneity, and phase of these precipitated powders.

This work is devoted to generalize and analyze the previouse results of new photonic-crystalline nanomaterials based on synthetic opals and active dielectrics. Data were characterized by X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy. Active dielectrics infiltrated into the pores of the opal from the melt. The phase structure composition of the infiltrated materials into the pores of the opal matrix were analyzed. The results of x-ray diffraction and Raman spectra allowed to establish the crystal state of active dielectrics in the pores of the opal. The Raman spectra of some opal-active dielectric nanocomposites revealed new bands and changes in band intensities compared to the spectra of single crystals of active dielectrics. Further more, differences in band intensities in the spectra were measured at different spots of the sample‘s surface were observed. The revealed changes were attributed to the formation of new crystalline phases due to the injected dielectrics in opal pores.

Titania Nanostructures

ABSTRACTIn this work, the anodization of grade 2 titanium was performed using a HCl-based electrolyte in order to obtain Titania nanostructures. Different glycerol concentrations were added to the HCl electrolyte to study the effect it has on the shape and density of the nanostructures, additionally, anodization time and voltage was also varied. The anodized samples were observed by SEM microscopy and studied by Raman spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. Raman spectroscopy and XRD showed the formation of the anatase phase of the TiO2. By SEM it was possible to observe several changes in the shape of the structures, by adding glycerol ball-like structures were visible, anodization time did not change the shape of the nanostructures. However, the voltage variation showed a clear control on the shape of the structures, forming nanotubes at higher voltages. It was concluded that a better control of the shape and density of the nanostructures is achieved by adding glycerol, however, in order to overcome the resistance that the electrolyte brings, higher voltages are required.

Micro-patterned Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 (PZT) films with dot-pattern were grown by metal organic chemical vapor phase deposition (MOCVD). Micro-patterned Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 (PZT) films were formed on dot-patterned SrRuO3 (SRO) buffer layer that was prepared by MOCVD through the metal mask on (111)Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrate. The orientation of dot-patterned PZT films was ascertained by the micro-beam x-ray diffraction (XRD) and their crystallinity was characterized by Raman spectroscopy. It was found that PZT films were oriented to (111) on dot-pattern, while (100)/(001) out of dot-pattern and the amount of oxygen vacancies at the circumference of the dot-pattern were larger than that of center of dot-pattern.

Ti 1-x Mn x O 2 (x = 0, 0.05) nanoparticles have been synthesized using chemically derived self-propagating combustion reaction method. X-ray diffraction studies demonstrate the formation of anatase phase of TiO 2 belonging to 141/amd space group in both samples without the formation of any impurity phase. The incorporation of 5 at.% Mn content does not produce any changes in crystal structure which reveals the exact substitution of Mn atoms at Ti sites. Some change in lattice parameters and crystallite size is observed in Mn -doped composition, attributed to the difference in ionic radii. The size of grains obtained using scanning electron micrographs shows the consistent trend with the crystallite size evaluated from X-ray diffraction analysis. Energy dispersive X-ray analysis confirms the incorporation of Mn content in TiO 2 structure. Ferromagnetic behavior detected only in Mn -doped TiO 2 composition correspond to the strong Mn  d-shell contribution.

This paper report the effect of milling time on the structural properties of TiO2nanopowder prepared from sol-gel milling process. The synthesized TiO2nanopowders have been characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR). XRD result reveals that the TiO2nanopowder in anatase phase is detected. The morphology of the TiO2nanopowder change obviously with the increase of the milling time. Further, FTIR results found the sharp peaks of Ti-O-Ti and Ti-O bonding at below 600 cm-1for all TiO2nanopowder.

In this paper, we have successfully synthesized TiO2 microsperes by solvothermal method using titanium (IV) isopropoxide as titanium source and ethanol as a solvent. The solution was thermally treated at relatively low temperature of 150 °C for 3 hours. The as-prepared and annealed of TiO2 microsphere were characterized using FESEM, XRD and Raman spectroscopy. The diameter of the microspheres was 1-6 µm. The X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy studies show that the microspheres has anatase phase.

Polycrystalline samples of (Eu1−xYbx)2O3(x= 0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 0.8, 0.9 and 1.0) were synthesized by a sol–gel process. X-ray diffraction data were collected and the crystal structures were refined by the Rietveld method. All samples are found to have the same crystal system and formed solid solutions over the whole range ofx. The lattice parameters are found to vary linearly with the compositionx. The cationic distribution over the two non-equivalent sites 8band 24dof the space group Ia{\bar 3} is found to be random in the range 0.0 <x≤ 0.5 and preferential in the range 0.5 <x≤ 1.0. Replacing Eu3+and Yb3+by each other introduces slight changes in the atomic coordinates. Crystallite size and microstrain analysis are performed on single and multiple orders for each sample using profile fitting and the Warren–Averbach method. The obtained values of microstrain are correlated with the distribution of the rare earth (RE) ions over the two cationic sites of the structure. The average crystallite size ranges from 35 to 96 nm and the mean-square strain from 0.052 to 0.225 × 10−2.
