Optical properties of transparent alumina prepared through gel process at room temperature and coloured with dopants have
been studied. The absorption bands, molar absorptivity, effect of concentration and the dependence of oxidation state of copper
on the copper content and water content are similar to the random network glasses. The ultraviolet absorption edge at lower
energies confirm the disordered nature of the transition phase aluminasγ andδ. The absorption bands in the visible suggest the octahedral symmetry of oxygen around aluminum. 相似文献

temperatures in the range 300–550 K show that conduction in these compositions occurs due to hopping of charge carriers between

An infrared spectrometer (spectral range 2–6 μm), coupled with a 9 μm pyrometer (Christiansen’s wavelength), has been developed
to collect time-resolved measurements (32 spectra/s) of the spectral emissivity of alumina droplets (d≈ 3 mm) freely cooling in an aerodynamic levitation system from the liquid-to-solid phases [2800 → 1500 K]. The temperature
and nature of the gaseous atmosphere surrounding the droplet (oxidizing/neutral/reducing) are two important parameters affecting
the spectral emissivity in the semi-transparent range. Observations are discussed in the framework of the thermal activation
and of the chemical interactions of alumina with the environment.

Criteria of hole size and hydrogen-hydrogen distance have been used to develop rationales for the observed stoichiometries
and preferred hydrogen sites in theα-,β
1-,β
2- andγ-phases of the FeTi-H system. For these four phases of FeTiH
n
, the respective values ofn approximate 0, 1, 1.4 and 2. Structures and position vectors for the metal atoms were obtained from the literature for use
in calculating the radii of the various interstices and the intersite distances in each phase. The model does not allow one
to predict the nature of the structural transformations that occur in this system with increasing hydrogen concentrations,
but knowing the metal atom positions in each phase does allow one to predict the preferred sites for hydrogen atoms. Most
of the occupied interstices are octahedral sites coordinated by four titantium atoms and two iron atoms, but the reported
occupation of a pseudo-octahedral site in FeTiD is explained within the framework of the model by allowing a deuterium atom
to occupy a hexahedral interstice coordinated by three titanium atoms and two iron atoms. Forn −-2, i.e. for theγ phase, geometric considerations allow the correct prediction of some hydrogen atoms situated in octahedral interstices coordinated
by four iron atoms and two titanium atoms. Occupation of such a site could not have been predicted by considering the relative
affinities of the metals titanium and iron for hydrogen. 相似文献

Alumina was prepared from an aqueous salt solution by homogeneous precipitation followed by calcination in air. Dependence
of the thermal stability of transition phases on the presence of a zirconia dopant and on autoclave treatment prior to calcination
was investigated using X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential thermal analysis coupled with thermogravimetric analysis (DTA–TGA)
and transmission electron microscope (TEM) analysis. Homogeneous precipitation produced an amorphous trihydrate precipitate;
the autoclave treatment converted this to crystalline boehmite (monohydrate). The zirconia was soluble in the transition alumina
but was insoluble in α-Al2O3 so that phase transformation to α-Al2O3 was accompanied by a phase separation to form an alumina-zirconia nanocomposite. The thermal stability of the transition
phases was increased both by the dopant and by the autoclave treatment. A combination of both parameters yielded the most
stable transition alumina, which withstood 1 h at 1200°C without transformation to α-Al2O3.

Systematics in the electrical and magnetic properties of transition metal perovskites LnBO3 (Ln=rare-earth ion, B=3d transition metal) with the variation of Ln and B ions are reviewed. The electrical resistivity and activation energy of LnBO3 compounds increase with the decreasing size of the Ln3+ ion for a given B ion. The low-spin to high-spin transition temperature of Co3+ ion in LnCoO3 similarly increases with the decrease in size of Ln3+ while the magnetic ordering temperatures in LnVO3, LnFeO3, LnCrO3 and LnSrCo2O6 decreases with decreasing size of the rare-earth ion. These results may be understood in terms of the increasing acidity
of the rare earth ion with decreasing size and the competition between the Ln3+ and the B3+ ions for covalency with the oxygen ions. The effect of this competition on the metal oxygen covalency and crystal field parameter
is discussed in relation to the results obtained and Goodenough’s phase diagram. The possibility ofd-f exchange interaction in La1−xLnx NiO3 is also discussed in the light of ESR results.

AbstractAlumina scales constitute excellent protective barriers when they form on alumina-forming steels. If they keep tightly adherent to the underlying substrate, they isolate it from the surrounding aggressive atmosphere at high temperature. The protectiveness of the alumina scale is highly dependant upon its growth mechanism. The nucleation and transformation of transient alumina (mainly γ-Al2O3 and θ-Al2O3) is known to play an important role on alumina scale formation. It is therefore fundamental to characterise these transient alumina especially during the early stages of the oxidation process. The morphology of the transient alumina was observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), their crystallographic phases determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). X-ray photoelectron spectrometry (XPS) analyses were performed on reference samples and then compared to the alloys oxidised 5 and 30 minutes at 850, 900 and 950°C. 相似文献

Two series of aluminosilicate glasses have been synthesized with the nominal composition (64 − x) SiO2–x Al2O3–36 Na2O/CaO with x varying from 9 to 19 mol%. They have been corroded in static conditions in a solution that mimics in a simplified manner
the intracellular medium of the lung alveolar macrophages (37 °C, pH 4.6, citric acid). The original and corroded glasses
have been studied by 27Al and 29Si MAS NMR. Both series display a sharp increase in the silicon dissolution rate with the alumina content. The glass network
dissolves extremely slowly, whereas the release of excess sodium is very fast, for the glasses with low alumina content. On
the opposite, the glasses with high alumina content dissolve much more rapidly in a nearly congruent manner. The crossover
between the two behaviors occurs for x = 13, which corresponds to 33% of aluminum in the glass-former network. The sharp crossover from slow to fast network dissolution
is explained in terms of connectivity of the silica sub-network. Above a certain amount of alumina, the silicon sub-network
is no more percolating and the corroded glass breaks up into colloids. The sharpness of the transition and the relatively
low alumina content required for fast dissolution are related to a structural feature of the aluminosilicate glasses, namely
the aluminum self-avoidance that decreases the connectivity of the silica sub-lattice. 相似文献

We report a spin resonance study of the family of quasi-two-dimensional organic (super)conductors β”-(BEDT-TTF)4[(H3O)M(C2O4)3]S, where M is a 3d transition metal ion and S is a host solvent molecule. The spin systems for M = Cr3+ (S = 3/2) and M = Fe3+ (S = 5/2) are investigated by means of both resonant and field modulation techniques in the frequency range between 50 and
313 GHz. The role of the different solvent molecules in determining the degree of spin-orbit coupling and the local symmetry
at the metal ion site is established. The low temperature behaviour of intensities, positions and widths of the resonant lines
shows significant modifications of the spin-orbit coupling, and of the inter-and intra-ionic spin-spin inter actions. Despite
the onset of a weak antiferromagnetic internal field at low temperature, the ultimate narrowing of the lines suggests spin-lattice
interactions may still be the dominant relaxation process. Diamagnetic screening in the mixed state of the superconducting
samples for fields parallel to the quasi-two-dimensional layers induces additional lineshifts only below B = 2.5T and T =
4K, determining the threshold of full field penetration within the anion layers. 相似文献

Atomic Insights into Phase Evolution in Ternary Transition‐Metal Dichalcogenides Nanostructures 下载免费PDF全文
Phase engineering through chemical modification can significantly alter the properties of transition‐metal dichalcogenides, and allow the design of many novel electronic, photonic, and optoelectronics devices. The atomic‐scale mechanism underlying such phase engineering is still intensively investigated but elusive. Here, advanced electron microscopy, combined with density functional theory calculations, is used to understand the phase evolution (hexagonal 2H→monoclinic T′→orthorhombic Td) in chemical vapor deposition grown Mo1− x W x Te2 nanostructures. Atomic‐resolution imaging and electron diffraction indicate that Mo1− x W x Te2 nanostructures have two phases: the pure monoclinic phase in low W‐concentrated (0 < x ≤ 10 at.%) samples, and the dual phase of the monoclinic and orthorhombic in high W‐concentrated (10 < x < 90 at.%) samples. Such phase coexistence exists with coherent interfaces, mediated by a newly uncovered orthorhombic phase Td′. Td′, preserves the centrosymmetry of T′ and provides the possible phase transition path for T′→Td with low energy state. This work enriches the atomic‐scale understanding of phase evolution and coexistence in multinary compounds, and paves the way for device applications of new transition‐metal dichalcogenides phases and heterostructures. 相似文献

In the frame of nuclear power plant safety, the interaction of molten corium (mixture of materials coming from a power plant)
with water can generate dynamic loading of the surrounding structures. This phenomenon is called the steam explosion. Many
experiments have been performed in the KROTOS facility with simulation materials (Al2O3) and prototypical materials (U,Zr)O2, and different behaviors attributed to a ‘material effect’ have been observed. Alumina melts produced spontaneous energetic
steam explosions, whereas explosions with corium melts (80% UO2–20% ZrO2) must be triggered and are less energetic. These differences may be partly attributed to the formation of meta-stable gamma
alumina and the ability of liquid alumina to dissolve part of the water, acting like an internal trigger. These results mean
that alumina is probably not an adequate simulation of the corium for steam explosion.

Anodizing of Ta-Al metal bilayers (Al on Ta) sputter-deposited onto SiO2 substrates was performed in oxalic acid electrolytes at anode potentials of 53 to 21.5 V in order to form nanoporous alumina
layers and sequentially oxidize the tantalum underlayers through the alumina pores. The films formed consist of arrays of
tantalum oxide nanohillocks percolating through the residual tantalum layer down to the substrate, so that a self-organized
network of tantalum nanowires forms between the substrate and the alumina film. The average width (25–<10 nm), length (70–35 nm),
and population density (109–1011 cm-2) of the nanowires are systematically defined by the initial tantalum thickness (8–22 nm) and the anodizing conditions. The
mesh-like, nano-sized morphologies of the tantalum underlayers result in a remarkably wide range of potential-dependent, controlled
electrical sheet resistances (102–107 Ω/sq). The periodical, tunable, metal/insulator film structure, allowing an increased transition to hopping or tunneling conduction
at elevated temperature, leads to negative temperature coefficients of resistance, ranging 300 to 5 ppm/K. Oscillations of
the potential-dependent dc conductance registered in the films at room temperature are attributed to the quantum-size effects
in the metal/oxide nanostructures. The films are of technological importance for fabrication of thin-film, planar, adjustable
resistors with significantly improved performances. 相似文献

The zinc titanates doped with zirconium were synthesized by conventional solid-state reaction using metal oxides. X-ray diffractometry

)O3 phase extended to a high temperature (above 945 °C). The c/a value decreased as the Zr concentrations increased, which may
be caused by the Zr4+ addition resulting in a shorter distance between the center ion and its nearest neighbors of the octahedron, and the bonding
force between the B-site ion and oxygen ion of ABO3 perovskite-like structure becoming stronger. The dielectric properties exhibited a significant dependence on the sintering
temperatures and the amount of ZrO2 addition. The dielectric constant decreased and Curie temperature (T

The reaction between alumina and boron in vacuum was studied between 800 and 1500‡C at different compositions of the starting
mixture. The reaction products were analyzed chemically and by x-ray diffraction, optical, and microstructural analysis techniques.
The compositions of the reaction intermediates and products were determined, which made it possible to propose a reaction
scheme which differs significantly from the commonly accepted one and assumes that not only B2O3 but also AlO are removed in the course of the reaction. It is shown that only 60% of the starting Al is incorporated into
the forming phase, AlB18-31 (Β-B hexagonal structure,a = 1.0970 nm,c = 2.3780 nm). No aluminum dior dodecaboride was detected in the reaction products. The proposed mechanism of the process
explains why the borothermic reduction of various metal oxides typically yields only the highest boron phases. 相似文献

Sodium aluminophosphate glasses having compositions of xAl2O3(1-x)NaPO3 (x = 0.05-0.2) were prepared using conventional melt-quench technique. Density, glass transition temperature, microhardness
(MH), thermal expansion coefficient (TEC) and transmission characteristics were measured as a function of alumina content
for different samples. They were found to depend on O/P ratio with pronounced changes taking place for O/P ratio ≥3.5. Density,
glass transition temperature and microhardness were found to increase up to 15 mol% of alumina and then they showed a decreasing
trend. Thermal expansion coefficient decreased continuously with alumina content. Optical gaps for different glass samples
as measured from transmission characteristics were found to be in the range 3.13–3.51 eV. It initially decreased with alumina
content up to 15 mol% and then increased. The behaviour was explained on the basis of change in the average aluminum coordination
number from six Al(6) to four Al(4) (i.e. Al(OP)6/Al(OP)4 ratio) along with the changes in polyhedra linkages in the glass network due to change in O/P ratio. 相似文献

Following the equation of motion method and Green’s function technique, the coexistence of itinerant ferromagnetism (FM) and
superconductivity (SC) is investigated in a single band homogeneous system. Self-consistent equations for superconducting
order parameter (Δ) and magnetic order parameter (ΔFM) are derived. It is shown that there generally exists a coexistent (Δ≠0 and ΔFM≠0) solutions to the coupled equations of the order parameter in the temperature range 0<T<min (T
C,T
FM) where T
C and T
FM are respectively the superconducting and ferromagnetic transition temperatures. Expressions for the specific heat, density
of states and free energy are derived. The specific heat has a linear temperature dependence at low temperatures as opposed
to the exponential decrease in the BCS theory. The density of states for a finite ΔFM increases as opposed to that of a standard ferromagnetic metal. The free energy shows that the superconducting ferromagnetic
state has lower energy than the normal ferromagnetic state and therefore is realized at low enough temperature. The theory
is applied to explain the observations of URhGe. The agreement between theory and experimental results is quite satisfactory.

unit cell with respect to different stoichiometric inclusion of yttrium. X-ray powder diffraction profiles of the samples
were obtained and the well known Rietveld method and a versatile tool called maximum entropy method (MEM) were used for structural
and profile refinement. The charge density in the unit cell was constructed using refined structure factors and was analysed.
The charge ordering taking place in the insulator–metal transition was investigated and quantified. The insulator–metal transition
was found to occur when 20% of La/Sr atoms were replaced by yttrium. The changes in the charge environment have also been

from an antiferromagnetic (AF) insulator to a superconducting (SC) metal in RBa2Cu3O6+x

≤15–20 K give a clear view of the magnetic-field induced superconductivity suppression and recovery of the long-range AF state.
What still remains to be understood is whether the AF order actually persists in the SC state or just revives when the superconductivity

A microscopic coexistence of itinerant ferromagnetism (FM) and superconductivity (SC) is studied in a single band homogenous
system, following an equation of motion method and Green’s function technique. Self-consistent equations for superconducting
order parameter (Δ) and magnetization parameter (M) are derived. It is shown that there generally exists a coexistent (Δ≠0, M≠0) solution to the coupled equations of the order parameters in the temperature range 0<T<min (T
C,T
FM), where T
C and T
FM are respectively the superconducting and ferromagnetic transition temperatures. The expressions for electronic specific heat
(C/T), density of states, free energy, transition probabilities, ultrasonic attenuation, and nuclear relaxation are also derived.
The theory is applied to explain the observations in UCoGe and UIr. The specific heat capacity at low temperature shows linear
temperature dependence as opposed to the activated behavior. Density of states increases as opposed to the case of a standard
ferromagnetic metal. Free energy study reveals that the superconducting ferromagnetic state has lower energy than the normal
ferromagnetic state and, therefore, coexistence of FM and SC realized at a low enough temperature. The agreement between theory
and experimental results for UCoGe and UIr is quite encouraging. 相似文献
