Composite La0.88Bi0.12Mn0.80Ni0.20O3 was synthesized using the conventional solid-state reaction method with sintering temperature of 1200 °C for 12 hours and the dielectric properties investigated. The X-ray diffraction result shows that the composite has a rhombohedral structure with lattice parameter of a = b = c = 5.5136 Ǻ. Scanning electron microscope shows grains with approximately from 0.8 to 5.4 μm in size with presence of voids. The dielectric permittivity, εʹ and dielectric loss, εʺ were measured in the range of 298 K to 473 K where both are temperature and frequency dependent. At 1 kHz to 100 kHz, the εʹ is around 10000 and the dielectric loss tangent, tan δ is below 1.5. The electric behavior of this composite is best represented by Quasi-dc model which consists of two universal capacitors in parallel. Parameters value from the fitting indicated that high correlations of electrons between inter and intra-clusters. The activation energy, Ea calculated from the conductivity of the sample gives a value of 0.116 eV. Vibrating sample magnetometer shows that the La0.88Bi0.12Mn0.80Ni0.20O3 has a magnetic coercivity, Hc of 36.109 G and retentivity, Br, valued 2.7504 x 10-3 emu/g.

The conventional solid-state reaction method was utilized to prepare a series of superconducting samples of the nominal composition Bi2-xPb0.3WxSr2Ca2Cu3O10+d with 0≤x≤0.5 of 50 nm particle size of tungsten sintered at 8500C for 140h in air . The influence of substitution with W NPs at bismuth (Bi) sites was characterized by the X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and dc electrical resistivity. Room temperature X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that there exists two phases, i.e. Bi-(2223) and Bi-(2212), in addition to the impurity phases of (SrCa) 2Cu2O3, Sr2Ca2Cu7Oδ, Ca2PbO4, CaO, and WO. It was found that the crystallographic structure of all samples was orthorhombic. Lattice parameter values and the volume fraction of the (2223)-phase of the prepared samples were also calculated. The superconductivity transition temperature (Tc) for samples subjected to substitution with W NPs was found to be higher than that for the pure sample. The optimal value of W NPs content in (Bi, Pb)-2223 system was found to be at x=0.3.

The effects of CuO-B2O3(CBO) additive on densification, microstructure, and electrical properties of (Ba0.98Ca0.02)(Sn0.04Ti0.96)O3(BCST) cermaics were investigated. The phase compositions, microstructure, dielectric, ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties of BCST ceramics were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), precision impedance analyzer, ferroelectric tester and quasi-static piezoelectric constant testing meter, respectively. The results show that CuO-B2O3(CBO) frit can improve the densification and promote low-temperature sintering of BCST ceramics prepared by a conventional solid-state reaction method. Dense BCST ceramics with CBO can be sintered at temperatures as low as 1175 °C, which is approximately 275 °C less than the sintering temperature of pure BCST. When sintered at 1200 °C, the optimized properties of the BCST ceramics with 0.5 wt% CBO were obtain asε= 1206,d33= 346 pC/N,kP= 0.39, tgδ = 0.009.

Abstract (K,Na,Li)NbO3-BaZrO3-(Bi,Na)TiO3-x B2O3 (abbreviated as KNLN-BZ-BNT-x B2O3) ceramics were prepared by conventional solid state reaction method. The effects of B2O3 content on dielectric and piezoelectric properties of the KNLN-BZ-BNT ceramics have been studied. Based on the identification by X-ray diffraction (XRD), all the samples show a two-phase coexistence zone consisting of rhombohedral (R) and tetragonal (T) phases. For the ceramics with x = 0.5 wt%, the sintering temperature was observed to reduce from 1200 oC to 940 oC, while the samples maintained a high relative density around 97%. Because of the high densification and large grain size, the dielectric and piezoelectric properties were improved. As a result, the ceramics with x = 0.5 wt% sintered at 940 oC exhibited good properties of d 33 = 197 pC/N, k p= 0.29, tan δ = 0.029 and ε r = 1889, together with a Curie temperature (T C) of 222 oC.

Sodium super ionic conductor (NASICON)-type Na3Zr2Si2PO12 (NZSP) with the advantages of the high ionic conductivity, stability and safety is one of the most famous solid-state electrolytes. NZSP, however, requires the high sintering temperature about 1200 °C and long sintering time in the conventional solid-state reaction (SSR) method. In this study, the liquid-phase sintering (LPS) method was applied to synthesize NZSP with the use of NaPO3 glass with a low glass transition temperature of 292 °C. The formation of NZSP was confirmed by X-ray diffraction analyses in the samples obtained by the LPS method for the mixture of Na2ZrSi2O7, ZrO2, and NaPO3 glass. The sample sintered at 1000 °C for 10 h exhibited a higher Na+ ion conductivity of 1.81 mS/cm at 100 °C and a lower activation energy of 0.18 eV compared with the samples prepared by the SSR method. It is proposed that a new LPE method is effective for the synthesis of NZSP and the NaPO3 glass has a great contribution to the Na+ diffusion at the grain boundaries.

The aim of this paper is first a better understanding of DC reactive magnetron sputtering and its implications, such as the hysteresis effect and the process instability. In a second part, this article is devoted to an example of specific application: Aluminium Nitride. AlN thin films have been deposited by reactive triode sputtering. We have studied the effect of the nitrogen contents in the discharge and the RF bias voltage on the growth of AlN films on Si(100) deposited by triode sputtering. Stoichiometry and crystal orientation of AlN films have been characterized by means of Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction and secondary electron microscopy. Dense and transparent AlN layers were obtained at high deposition rates. These films have a (002) orientation whatever the nitrogen content in the discharge, but the best crystallised ones are obtained at low value (10%). A linear relationship was observed between the AlN lattice parameter "c" (perpendicular to the substrate surface) and the in-plane compressive stress. Applying an RF bias to the substrate leads to a (100) texture, and films become amorphous. Moreover, the film's compressive stress increases up to a value of 8GPa before decreasing slowly as the bias voltage increases.

The objective of this study is to investigate the effect of sintering temperature on the synthesis of SiC produced from rice husk ash (RHA) and 2B graphite pencils. The SiC was synthesized by using solid state reaction method sintered at temperatures of 750°C, 1000°C and 1200°C for 26 hours, 11.5 hours and 11.5 hours, respectively. The quantity and crystallinity level of SiC phase were measured by means of Rigaku MiniFlexII X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). The microstructure of SiC was examined by using Tescan Vega3SB Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The XRD results showed that the concentration (wt%) of SiC phase increases with the increasing of sintering temperature. SEM results showed that the crystallinity level of SiC crystal is improving as the sintering temperature increases

The effects of Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 nanoparticle addition on the superconducting and transport properties of (Tl0.85Cr0.15)Sr2CaCu2O7 (Tl-1212) superconductor were investigated in this paper. The Tl-1212 samples were produced by mixing high purity oxide powders through a solid-state reaction method. Nano Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 particles with compositions of 0.001 wt.%, 0.003 wt.%, 0.005 wt.%, 0.01 wt.% and 0.02wt.% with average size of 60 nm were added into the Tl-1212 powders. The transition temperatures (Tc-zero and Tc-onset) were measured using a four-point probe method. The highest Tc-zero recorded was 97 K which was exhibited by the pure Tl-1212 sample. The transport critical current, Ic, of the Tl-1212 samples were found through the 1 µV/cm criterion with temperature ranging from 30 K to 77 K. The sample with a composition of 0.003 wt.% displayed the highest value of Jc at 77 K with a value ranging up to 1780 mA/cm2. The Tl-1212 samples were characterised using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), powder X-ray diffraction method (XRD), energy dispersive X-Ray analysis (EDX), electrical resistance measurements and transport critical current density measurements. The Jc of the Tl-1212 superconductor has been improved through the addition of Ni0.5Zn0.5Fe2O4 nanoparticles but adding an excessive amount has caused its Jc to degrade.

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.
