Influence of rare-earth oxides on structure and crystallization properties of Bi2O3–B2O3 glass

Bi₂O₃·B₂O₃ glasses doped with rare-earth oxides (RE₂O₃) (RE³⁺ = La³⁺, Pr³⁺, Sm³⁺, Gd³⁺, Er³⁺ and Yb³⁺) were prepared by the melting–quenching method. The relationships between composition and properties were demonstrated by IR, DSC, XRD and SEM analysis. The results show that the network structure resembles that of undoped Bi₂O₃·B₂O₃ glass, composing of [BO₃], [BO₄] and [BiO₆] units. RE₂O₃ stabilizes the glass structure as a modifier. Transition temperature (T_g) increases linearly with cationic field strength (CFS) of RE³⁺. La₂O₃, Pr₂O₃, Sm₂O₃ and Gd₂O₃ are benefit to promote the formation of BiBO₃ crystal. When Er₂O₃ and Yb₂O₃ are introduced, respectively, the main crystal phase changes to Bi₆B₁₀O₂₄. Transparent surface crystallized samples are obtained by reheating at 460–540 °C for 5 h. In this case, needle like BiBO₃ crystal or rare-earth-doped BiBO₃ crystal (Pr_xBi_1−xBO₃ and Gd_xBi_1−xBO₃) are observed, which is promising for non-linear optical application.     

Kinetic analysis on Al2O3/Cu composite prepared by mechanical activation and internal oxidation

The Al₂O₃/Cu composite was prepared by mechanical activation and internal oxidation process. Kinetic factors, which influenced the internal oxidation process, were also discussed in the present paper. The results showed that the duration of the internal oxidation was highly shortened after the powders were treated by mechanical activation. The typical internal oxidation duration was only 1 h. It is unnecessary for further prolonging internal oxidation time. Besides, in order to get a complete internal oxidation heating rate and green density of the compact are another two control factors. Their parameters should be controlled from Al contents in the powders. In this research, the optimum internal oxidation duration, heating rate and green density are 1 h, 20 °C/min and 80%, respectively, for Cu–0.8 wt% Al/Cu₂O powders. After the internal oxidation, uniform spherical -Al₂O₃ particles with an average size 0.5–0.8 μm in diameter were observed in the Cu matrix.     

Preparation, patterning and luminescent properties of nanocrystalline Gd2O3:A (A=Eu, Dy, Sm, Er) phosphor films via Pechini sol–gel soft lithography

Nanocrystalline Gd₂O₃:A (A=Eu³⁺, Dy³⁺, Sm³⁺, Er³⁺) phosphor films and their patterning were fabricated by a Pechini sol–gel process combined with a soft lithography. X-ray diffraction (XRD), atomic force microscopy (AFM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and optical microscopy, UV/vis transmission and photoluminescence (PL) spectra as well as lifetimes were used to characterize the resulting films. The results of XRD indicated that the films began to crystallize at 500 °C and that the crystallinity increased with the elevation of annealing temperatures. Uniform and crack free non-patterned phosphor films were obtained by optimizing the composition of the coating sol, which mainly consisted of grains with an average size of 70 nm and a thickness of 550 nm. Using micro-molding in capillaries technique, we obtained homogeneous and defects-free patterned gel and crystalline phosphor films with different stripe widths (5, 10, 20 and 50 μm). Significant shrinkage (50%) was observed in the patterned films during the heat treatment process. The doped rare earth ions (A) showed their characteristic emission in crystalline Gd₂O₃ phosphor films due to an efficient energy transfer from Gd₂O₃ host to them. Both the lifetimes and PL intensity of the rare earth ions increased with increasing the annealing temperature from 500 to 900 °C, and the optimum concentrations for Eu³⁺, Dy³⁺, Sm³⁺, Er³⁺ were determined to be 5, 0.25, 1 and 1.5 mol% of Gd³⁺ in Gd₂O₃ films, respectively.     

Synthesis, structure refinement and characterization of tetrahydrated acid gadolinium diphosphate HGdP2O7·4H2O

Synthesis and single crystal structure are reported for a new gadolinium acid diphosphate tetrahydrate HGdP₂O₇·4H₂O. This salt crystallizes in the monoclinic system, space group P2₁/n, with the following unit-cell parameters: a = 6.6137(2) Å, b = 11.4954(4) Å, c = 11.377(4) Å, β = 87.53(2)° and Z = 4. Its crystal structure was refined to R = 0.0333 using 1783 reflections. The corresponding atomic arrangement can be described as an alternation of corrugated layers of monohydrogendiphosphate groups and GdO₈ polyhedra parallel to the () plane. The cohesion between the different diphosphoric groups is provided by strong hydrogen bonding involving the W4 water molecule.

IR and Raman spectra of HGdP₂O₇·4H₂O confirm the existence of the characteristic bands of diphosphate group in 980–700 cm⁻¹ area. The IR spectrum reveals also the characteristic bands of water molecules vibration (3600–3230 cm⁻¹) and acidic hydrogen ones (2340 cm⁻¹). TG and DTA investigations show that the dehydration of this salt occurs between 79 and 900 °C. It decomposes after dehydration into an amorphous phase. Gadolinium diphosphate Gd₄(P₂O₇)₃ was obtained by heating HGdP₂O₇·4H₂O in a static air furnace at 850 °C for 48 h.

Study of a microwave ferrite resonator antenna, based on a ferrimagnetic composite (Gd3Fe5O12)GdIGX-(Y3Fe5O12)YIG1-X

The authors report a study on microwave properties of a ferrimagnetic ceramic composite (Gd₃Fe₅O₁₂)GdIG_X-(Y₃Fe₅O₁₂)YIG_1-X. The magnetic and dielectric measurements at microwave frequency were made through the Hakki?Coleman?s procedure and through the excitation of a cylindrical ferrite resonator antenna (FRA). The hysteresis loops of the GdIG_XYIG_1-X ferrimagnetic composite were obtained. The numerical simulation study was performed using Ansoft?s High Frequency Structure Simulator (HFSS) software. The agreement between the experimental data and the simulated results is very good. These results demonstrated that, by varying the material composition of the resonator, ferrimagnetic composite GdIG_XYIG_1-X could operate as a magneto-dielectric antenna with bandwidth in the range of 7.5--11% and in the frequency range of 4.4--5.3 GHz. Additionally, all FRAs presented a low negative value of T_f, which indicates suitability for microwave applications such as mobile communication systems or satellite broadcast systems.

以CaO-B₂O₃-SiO₂(CBS)玻璃粉体和Al₂O₃陶瓷粉体为原料,通过在CBS与Al₂O₃的质量比固定为50:50的玻璃-陶瓷复合材料中添加适量的Bi₂O₃作为烧结助熔剂,探讨了Bi₂O₃助熔剂对CBS/Al₂O₃复合材料的烧结性能、介电性能、抗弯强度和热膨胀系数的影响规律.研究表明:Bi₂O₃助熔剂能通过降低CBS玻璃的转变温度和黏度促进CBS/Al₂O₃复合材料的致密化进程,于880 ℃下烧结即能获得结构较致密、气孔较少的CBS/Al₂O₃复合材料.然而,过量添加Bi₂O₃将使玻璃的黏度过低,从而恶化CBS/Al₂O₃复合材料的烧结性能、介电性能及抗弯强度.当Bi₂O₃的添加量为CBS/Al₂O₃复合材料的1.5wt%时,于880 ℃下烧结即能获得最为致密的CBS/Al₂O₃复合材料,密度为2.82 g·cm^-3,这一材料具有良好的介电性能(介电常数为7.21,介电损耗为1.06×10^-3),抗弯强度为190.34 MPa,0~300 ℃的热膨胀系数为3.52×10^-6 K^-1.     

Templated grain growth of SrBi2Ta2O9 ceramics: Mechanism of texture development

Textured SrBi₂Ta₂O₉ (SBT) ceramics were fabricated via templated grain growth (TGG) technique using platelet-like SBT single crystal templates. The templates (5 wt%) were embedded in a fine-grain SBT powder matrix containing 3 wt% of Bi₂O₃ excess that were subjected to uniaxial pressing and sintering at 1000–1250 °C for up to 24 h. Microstructural characterization by SEM was performed to establish the effect of sintering parameters on the grain growth and texture development. It was found that the ceramics developed a bimodal microstructure with notable concentration of large (longer than 90 μm) aligned grains with c-axis oriented parallel to the pressing direction. The mechanism controlling the texture development and grain growth in SBT ceramics is discussed.     

Polymeric precursor synthesis of Ba2Ti9O20

Ba₂Ti₉O₂₀ was synthesized by Pechini method using citric acid as a chelating agent and ethylene glycol as an esterification agent. The effects, of the pH of the starting solutions and the molar ratio of citric acid to total metal cations concentration on the formation of Ba₂Ti₉O₂₀, were investigated. Increasing the pH of the starting solutions enhances the formation of Ba₂Ti₉O₂₀, but the increase of the molar ratio of citric acid to total metal cations concentration retards the formation of Ba₂Ti₉O₂₀ due to increased diffusion distances. Single-phase Ba₂Ti₉O₂₀ was obtained at 1200 °C for 4 h when the molar ratio of citric acid to total metal cations concentration was unity, regardless of the pH of the starting solutions. Increasing the molar ratio of citric acid to total metal cations concentration up to 2, single-phase Ba₂Ti₉O₂ was synthesized at 1200 °C for 6 h for the precursors with pH 3.5 and 6, but not for the precursors with pH 2.0. DTA, TG, XRD, FT–IR spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy were used to characterize the precursors and the derived oxide powders. Details of the synthesis and characterizations of the resultant products were given.

Abrasive wear of Al2O3-reinforced aluminium-based MMCs

The effects of volume fraction, Al₂O₃ particle size and effects of porosity in the composites on the abrasive wear resistance of compo-casting Al alloy MMCs have been studied for different abrasive conditions. It was seen that porosity in the composites is proportional to particle content. In addition, process variables like the stirring speed, and the position and diameter of the stirrer affect of the porosity content in a way similar to that observed for particle content. In addition, the abrasive wear rates of composites decreased more rapidly with increase in Al₂O₃ volume fraction in tests performed over 80 grade SiC abrasive paper than in tests conducted over 220 grade SiC abrasive paper. Furthermore, the wear rates decreased with increase in Al₂O₃ size for the composites containing the same amount of Al₂O₃. Hence, it is deduced that aluminium alloy composites reinforced with larger Al₂O₃ particles are more effective against abrasive wear than those reinforced with smaller Al₂O₃ particles. At the same time the results show that the beneficial effects of hard Al₂O₃ particles on wear resistance far surpassed that of the sintered porosity in the compocasting metal-matrix composites (MMCs). Nevertheless, the fabrication of composites containing soft particles such as graphite favors a reduction in the friction coefficient. For this reason graphite and copper were used in the matrix in different amounts to detect their effect on wear resistance. Finally, it was seen that wear rate of the composites decreased considerably with graphite additions.

Microwave dielectric properties and microstructures of MgTa2O6 ceramics with CuO addition

The effect of CuO addition on the microstructures and the microwave dielectric properties of MgTa₂O₆ ceramics has been investigated. It is found that low level-doping of CuO (up to 1 wt.%) can significantly improve the density of the specimens and their microwave dielectric properties. Tremendous sintering temperature reduction can be achieved due to the liquid phase effect of CuO addition observed by scanning electronic microscopy (SEM). The sintered samples exhibit excellent microwave dielectric properties, which depend upon the liquid phase and the sintering temperature. With 0.5 wt.% CuO addition, MgTa₂O₆ ceramic can be sintered at 1400 °C and possesses a dielectric constant (_r) of 28, a Q × f value of 58000 GHz and a temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (τ_f) of 18 ppm/°C.
