Microstructure development in Sb2 O3 -doped ZnO was studied to evaluate the influence of inversion boundaries (IBs) on ZnO grain growth. In general, the addition of Sb2 O3 is believed to inhibit the ZnO grain growth via the formation of spinels and IBs, but we have shown that even the conditions of exaggerated grain growth can be created in this system. We designed an experiment for diffusional doping of ZnO under slightly increased partial pressure of Sb2 O3 . In the high-concentration regime we observed no spinels, and yet the ZnO grains were small and inhibited in growth, while in the low-concentration regime we found huge grains, several times larger than normal ZnO grains, showing an obvious exaggerated growth. By controlling the number of nuclei with IBs we can design coarse-grained microstructures even with Sb2 O3 doping, which has far-reaching implications in the production of low-voltage varistor devices. 相似文献

Electrical conduction in tetragonal β-Bi2 O3 doped with Sb2 O3 was investigated by measuring electrical conductivity, ionic transference number, and Seebeck coefficient. The β-Bi2 O3 doped with 1 to 10 mol% Sb2 O3 was stable up to 600°C and showed an oxygen ionic and electronic mixed conduction, where the electron conduction was predominant at low oxygen pressures. The oxygen-ion conductivity showed a maximum at 4 mol% Sb2 O3 , whereas the activation energy for the ionic conduction remained unchanged for 4 to 10 mol% Sb2 O3 -doped specimens. These results were interpreted in terms of the oxygen vacancy concentration and the distortion of the tetragonal structure. The electron conductivity and its oxygen pressure dependence decreased with increasing Sb2 O3 content. The fact that Sb5+ is partially reduced by excess electrons in heavily doped β specimens at low oxygen pressures is explained. 相似文献

The effect on microstructure and electrical properties of (Co, Nb)-doped SnO2 varistors upon the addition of Pr2 O3 was investigated by scanning electron microscopy and by determining I – V , ɛ– f , and R – f relations. The threshold electric field of the SnO2 -based varistors increased significantly from 850 to 2280 V/mm, and the relative dielectric constants of the SnO2 -based varistors decreased greatly from 784 to 280 as Pr2 O3 concentration was increased up to 0.3 mol%. The significant decrease of the SnO2 grain size, from 4.50 to 1.76 μm with increasing Pr2 O3 concentration over the range of 0–0.3 mol%, is the origin for the increase in the threshold voltage and decrease of the dielectric constants. The grain size reduction is attributed to the segregation of Pr2 O3 at grain boundaries hindering the SnO2 grains from conglomerating into large particles. Varistors were found to have a superhigh threshold voltage and a comparatively large nonlinear coefficient α. For 0.15 mol% Pr2 O3 -doped sample, threshold electric field and nonlinear coefficient α were measured to be 1540 V/mm and 61, and for 0.3 mol% Pr2 O3 -doped sample, V and α were 2150 V/mm and 42, respectively. Superhigh threshold voltage and large nonlinear coefficient α qualify the Pr-doped SnO2 varistor as an excellent candidate for a high voltage protection system. 相似文献

Densification and microstructure de velopment in Bi2 O3 -doped ZnO have been studied with a special emphasis on the effect of the Bi2 O3 content. A small amount of Bi2 O3 in ZnO (0.1 mol%) retarded densification, but the addition of Bi2 O3 to more than 0.5 mol% promoted densification by the formation of a liquid phase above the eutectic temperature (∼740°C). The liquid phase increased grain-boundary mobility, which was responsible for the formation of intragrain pores and the decrease in the sintered density. The increase in the Bi2 O3 content increased the probability of the formation of skeleton structure, which reduced the grain growth rate and the sintered density. 相似文献

The effects of the addition of V2 O5 on the sintering behavior, microstructure, and microwave dielectric properties of 5Li2 O–1Nb2 O5 –5TiO2 (LNT) ceramics have been investigated. With low-level doping of V2 O5 (≤3 wt%), the microstructure of the LNT ceramic changed from a special two-level intergrowth structure into a two-phase composite structure with separate grains. And the sintering temperature of the LNT ceramics could be lowered to around 900°C by adding a small amount of V2 O5 without much degradation in microwave dielectric properties. Typically, better microwave dielectric properties of ɛr =41.7, Q × f =7820 GHz, and τ f =45 ppm/°C could be obtained for the 1 wt% V2 O5 -doped ceramics sintered at 900°C. 相似文献

The effect of the cooling rate on the PTCR (positive temperature coefficient of resistivity) characteristics of 0.1 mol% Sb2 O3 -doped BaTiO3 ceramics has been investigated. Resistances both below and above the Curie temperature were increased by slow cooling, which indicated that the resistive layer width at the grain boundary increased as the cooling rate decreased. Concentration profiles of the Ba vacancies as a function of distance from the grain boundary have been simulated by the finite difference method. The inversion temperature of the 0.1 mol% Sb2 O3 -doped BaTiO3 system was determined to be 1160°C from the measured electrical properties and computed concentration profiles. 相似文献

The influence of 0–16 mol% Sb2 O3 substitution for P2 O5 on the properties of ZnO–P2 O5 glasses has been investigated. It was shown that Sb2 O3 could participate in the glass network and thermal stability of the glasses decreased with increasing Sb2 O3 content. Glass transition temperature T g , softening temperature T s , and water durability all decreased firstly (up to 6 mol% Sb2 O3 added) and then increased. Substitution of 12 mol% Sb2 O3 led to a 16°C decrease in T g and 30°C decrease in T s , and weight loss of the glass was only 0.42 mg/cm2 , which is ∼11 times lower than that of the glass without Sb2 O3 after immersion in deionized water at 90°C for 1 day. The glass containing 12 mol% Sb2 O3 might be a substitute for Pb-based glasses in some applications. 相似文献

The nonlinearity of ZnO varistors is significantly influenced by the Bi2 O3 and Sb2 O3 contents, as well as by the phase composition of the Bi2 O3 . Degradation of the current-voltage characteristics due to the applied voltage is not always lowered by the β—γ transition of the Bi2 O3 phase. Lattice parameter determinations and stress analyses suggest that the Bi2 O3 -rich phase in multigrain junctions causes mechanical strain at the grain boundary which may play an important role in the current-voltage characteristics of ZnO varistors. 相似文献

The modification of the densification behavior and the grain-growth characteristics of the microwave-sintered ZnO materials, caused by the incorporation of V2 O5 additives, have been systematically studied. Generally, the addition of V2 O5 markedly enhances the densification rate, such that a density as high as 97.9% of the theoretical density and a grain size as large as 10 µm can be attained for a sintering temperature as low as 800°C and a soaking time as short as 10 min. Increasing the sintering temperature or soaking time does not significantly change the sintered density of the ZnO-V2 O5 materials but it does monotonously increase their grain size. Varying the proportion of V2 O5 in the range of 0.2-1.0 mol% does not pronouncedly modify such behavior. The leakage current density ( J L ) of these high-density and uniform-granular-structure samples is still large, which is amended by the incorporation of 0.3 mol% of Mn3 O4 in the ZnO materials, in addition to 0.5 mol% of the V2 O5 additives. Samples that are obtained using such a method possess good nonohmic characteristics (α= 23.5) and a low leakage current density ( J L = 2.4 10-6 A/cm2 ). 相似文献

In the present study, Pt or AgPd metal is used as the inner electrode for Bi2 O3 -doped ZnO multilayer varistors (MLV). The growth of the ZnO grains is constrained by the presence of the inner electrodes. The Pt inner electrodes are chemically inert to Bi2 O3 -doped ZnO. The Bi2 O3 could react with Pd to form PdBi2 O4 . The Bi2 O3 -rich liquid also tends to wet the AgPd electrode. The size of ZnO grains in the MLV/AgPd specimen is larger. The ZnO grains in the MLV/AgPd specimen can even grow to a size larger than the layer thickness at the expense of electrode continuity. 相似文献

Grain growth in a high-purity ZnO with systematic additions of Sb2 O3 from 0.29 to 2.38 wt% was studied for sintering in air from 1106° to 1400°C. The results are discussed and compared with previous studies of pure ZnO and ZnO with Bi2 O3 additions in terms of the kinetic grain growth expression: Gn – Gn 0 = K 0 t exp(— Q/RT ). Additions of Sb2 O3 inhibited the grain growth of ZnO and increased the grain growth exponent ( n -value) to 6 from 3 for pure ZnO and 5 for the ZnO—Bi2 O3 ceramic. The apparent activation energy for the grain growth of ZnO also increased to about 600 kJ/mol from 220 kJ/mol for pure ZnO and 150 kJ/mol for the ZnO—Bi2 O3 ceramics. Both the grain growth exponent and the activation energy were independent of the Sb2 O3 content. Particles of the Zn7 Sb2 O12 spinel were observed on the grain boundaries and at the grain triple point junctions. It was also observed that the Sb2 O3 additions caused twin formation in each ZnO grain. It is concluded that both the Zn7 Sb2 O12 particles and the twins are responsible for the ZnO grain growth inhibition by Sb2 O3 . 相似文献

The effects of V2 O5 addition on the sintering behavior, microstructure, and the microwave dielectric properties of 5Li2 O–0.583Nb2 O5 –3.248TiO2 (LNT) ceramics have been investigated. With addition of low-level doping of V2 O5 (≤2 wt%), the sintering temperature of the LNT ceramics could be lowered down to around 920°C due to the liquid phase effect. A secondary phase was observed at the level of 2 wt% V2 O5 addition. The addition of V2 O5 does not induce much degradation in the microwave dielectric properties but lowers the τf value to near zero. Typically, the excellent microwave dielectric properties of ɛr =21.5, Q × f =32 938 GHz, and τf =6.1 ppm/°C could be obtained for the 1 wt% V2 O5 -doped sample sintered at 920°C, which is promising for application of the multilayer microwave devices using Ag as an internal electrode. 相似文献

The dc conductivities (α) of PbO-P2 O5 -V2 O5 glasses containing up to 80 mol% V2 O5 were measured at T = 100°C to T = 10°C below the glass transition temperature. Dielectric constants at 1 MHz, densities, and the fraction of reduced V ion were measured at room temperature. The conduction mechanism of glasses containing >10 mol% V2 O5 was considered to be small-polaron hopping, as previously reported for other vanadate glasses. The temperature dependence of α was exponential, with α= (αo/ T ) exp(− W/kT ). When the V2 O5 content was ≥50 mol%, W decreased and α increased with increasing V2 O5 content, and the adiabatic approximation could be applied. In the composition range between 10 and 50 mol% V2 O5 , α increased with increasing V2 O5 content, but W varied little. In this region, the hopping conduction was characterized as nonadiabatic. The effect of dielectric constants and V ion spacing on W is discussed. 相似文献

Studies have been made of the effect of process variables such as calcination, initial particle size, and postsinterin on density, microstructure, V-I characteri stics, and energy -handling capability of a ZnO-based composite: 87.325 wt% ZuO + 0.1% Nb2 O5 + 3.5% Sb2 O5 + 6% Bi2 O3 + 0.55% CoO + 0.7% MnO2 + 0.9% Cr2 O3 + 0.9% NiO + 0.025% Al(NO3 )3 . The nonlinear characteristics were found to be improved by the calcination of a ZnO + Nb2 O5 mixture at 1200°C for 1h. The postsintering heat treatment was found to rejuvenate V-I characteristics of the degraded sample to a greater extent. Further, the postsintered sample containing Nb2 O5 , prepared by using a calcined charge of particle size around 1 μm, was found to possess better V-I characteristics and energy-handling capability compared to the samples prepared without the calcination step. 相似文献

The nonlinear volt-ampere characteristics and small-signal ac capacitance and resistance of sintered ZnO containing 0.5 mol% Bi2 O3 were measured. Many of the electrical properties are related directly to the microstructure, which consists of conductive ZnO grains separated by a continuous amorphous Bl2 O3 , phase. The origin of the nonlinear conduction in the intergranular phase was confirmed by experiments with evaporated thin films. The proposed conduction mechanism in varistors containing ZnO and Bi2 O3 is a combination of hopping and tunneling in the amorphous phase. 相似文献

Binary Sb2 O3 -GeO2 glasses containing 45 mol% Sb2 O3 and ternary Sb2 O3 -B2 O3 -GeO2 glasses containing 50 mol% GeO2 were prepared. Their densities (volumes), refractive indices, and infrared spectra were determined, and their colors and high-temperature viscosities were estimated visually. Small amounts of Sb2 O3 (∼10 mol%) appear to perturb neither the Ge-O-Ge network nor those B-O-Ge networks with small B/Ge ratios (∼0.2). The B-O-Ge networks with larger B/Ge ratios (∼1.0) depolymerize in the presence of even less Sb2 O3 . Amounts of Sb2 O3 >10 mol% appear to depolymerize the Ge-O-Ge and Ge-O-B networks progressively, possibly with the formation of chains. A structurally sensitive ir isofrequency contour technique developed for ternary glass systems was applied successfully to these Sb2 O3 -B2 O3 -GeO2 glasses. These contours can thus readily detect significant network depolymerization in the absence of the usual network modifiers. 相似文献

The breakdown voltage, the upturn voltage, and the nonlinearity of the ZnO varistors are significantly influenced by the Sb2 O3 and SiO2 contents, as well as by the β→γ transition of the Bi2 O3 phase. The lattice parameter of spinel is influenced by the coexisting Bi2 O3 phase. Antimony oxide disperses into the powders of ZnO and other additives in the early stage of sintering, and finally gathers again as particles of spinel which may play an important role in the improvement of the nonlinearity by stressing the interfaces of two ZnO grains. 相似文献

Er3+ -doped materials have attracted great attention. In this study, the effects of the kind of alkali (Li, Na, and K), Er2 O3 concentration (up to 3 mol%), and P2 O5 addition (0 and 2 mol%) on the phase separation, optical absorption, and photoluminescence (PL) of the alkali borosilicate glasses were investigated. The relationship between microstructure and optical properties of the glasses is discussed. It was found that the development of the droplet phase enhances both the light-scattering effect (enhancing the PL intensity) and the concentration-quenching effect (reducing the PL intensity). As a result, the variation of the PL intensity of the Er3+ 4 I13/2 →4 I15/2 transition with Er2 O3 content is mainly caused by the conflict between the light-scattering effect and the concentration-quenching effect. The 1 mol% Er2 O3 -doped, P2 O5 -containing, sodium borosilicate glass has the optimum microstructure and thus the highest PL intensity. 相似文献

The monolithic glass-forming region of the low phonon and low softening point antimony glasses containing high Sb2 O3 (40–75 mol%) in the novel quaternary K2 O–B2 O3 –Sb2 O3 –ZnO system has been found with the help of X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. The structure of a series of glasses with the general composition of (mol%) 15K2 O–15B2 O3 –(70− x )Sb2 O3 – x ZnO (where x =5–25) has been evaluated by infrared reflection spectral (FT-IRRS) analyses. All the glasses are found to possess a low phonon energy of around 600 cm−1 , as revealed by FT-IRRS. Their softening point ( T s ), glass transition temperature ( T g ), and coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) have been found to vary in the ranges of 351°–379°C, 252°–273°C, and 195–218 × 10−7 K−1 , respectively. These properties are found to be controlled by their fundamental property, like the covalent character of the glasses, which is found to increase with an increase in Sb2 O3 content. In addition, the devitrified glasses have been characterized by XRD and field emission scanning electron microscopy, which manifests the presence of nanozinc antimony oxide crystals with sizes of 21–43 nm. The exhibited properties have revealed that they are a new class of versatile materials. 相似文献

The phase change, densification, and microstructure development of ZnO doped with both Bi2 O3 and Sb2 O3 are studied to better understand the sintering behavior of ZnO varistors. The densification behavior is related to the formation of pyrochlore and liquid phases; the densification is retarded by the former and promoted by the latter. The pyrochlore phase, whose composition is Bi3/2 ZnSb3/2 O7 , appears below 700°C. The formation temperature of the liquid phase depends on the Sb/Bi ratio: about 750°C for Sb/Bi < 1 by the eutectic melting in the system ZnO—Bi2 O3 , and about 1000°C for Sb/Bi > 1 by the reaction of the pyrochlore phase with ZnO. Hence, the densification rate is determined virtually by the Sb/Bi ratio and not by the total amount of additives. The microstructure depends on the sintering temperature. Sintering at 1000°C forms intragrain pyrochlore particles in ZnO grains as well as intergranular layers, but the intragrain particles disappear at 1200°C by the increased amount of liquid phase, which enhances the mobility of the solid second phase. 相似文献
