Transport Properties of TlInSe2〈Ln〉 (Ln = Eu, Sm, Yb)

The electrical conductivity and Hall coefficient of TlInSe₂Ln (Ln = Eu, Yb, Sm) were measured between 300 and 900 K. The results were used to determine the band gap, ionization energy of impurities, conductivity type, and Hall mobility of charge carriers in TlInSe₂Ln. The temperature at which the Hall coefficient changes sign is shown to increase with doping level.     

Order–Disorder Transformations in Ln2Ti2O7(Ln = Lu, Yb, Tm, Gd)

The ordering processes in the rare-earth titanates Ln₂Ti₂O₇ with Ln = Lu, Yb, Tm, and Gd are studied by x-ray diffraction, thermal analysis, IR spectroscopy, electron microscopy, and electrical conductivity measurements. The compounds are prepared via hydroxide coprecipitation, followed by freeze-drying and heat treatment in the temperature range 350–1700°C. The compounds Ln₂Ti₂O₇ with Ln = Lu, Yb, and Tm are found to have the fluorite structure between 600 and 800°C. Above 800°C, they undergo a fluorite-to-pyrochlore transformation, with cation disordering and the formation of Ln_Ti + Ti_Ln antistructure pairs. Gd₂Ti₂O₇ has the pyrochlore structure over the entire temperature range studied and contains no antistructure defects. In contrast to Gd₂Ti₂O₇, the compounds Ln₂Ti₂O₇ with Ln = Lu, Yb, and Tm undergo a high-temperature pyrochlore-to-fluorite phase transition around 1700°C. The 750°C conductivity of Ln₂Ti₂O₇ (Ln = Lu, Yb, Tm) samples sintered at 1700°C is 5 × 10^–3 to 10^–2 S/cm, which is two orders of magnitude higher than that of ceramics of the same composition prepared at lower temperatures (950 or 1400°C). The conductivity of the Gd₂Ti₂O₇ ceramic prepared at 1500°C is two orders of magnitude lower than that of Ln₂Ti₂O₇ with Ln = Lu, Yb, and Tm.     

Sol–gel auto-combustion synthesis and luminescence properties of RVO4: Ln3+ (R=La,Gd; Ln=Sm,Er, Ho,Yb/Er) microcrystals

RVO₄: Ln³⁺ (R=La, Gd; Ln=Sm, Er, Ho, Yb/Er) microcrystals were successfully synthesized by a facile and rapid sol-gel method using glycine as the chelating agent. The crystalline structure, morphology and luminescence properties of obtained products were investigated in detail. The peaks of X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns were well-indexed to the standard RVO₄ patterns, indicating that the Ln³⁺ ions were well doped into the crystalline lattices and had not changed the crystalline structure. The luminescence properties of the samples are systematically studied. The typical peaks of the emission spectra were sharp and intense, revealing energy was transferred efficiently from VO₄ ^3- to Ln³⁺ after excitation. The schematic diagram for energy transfer between the host matrix and doped lanthanide ions were also discussed. The chromaticity coordinates of RVO₄: Ln³⁺ microcrystals were calculated. This work reveals that the rare-earth vanadates are potential candidates as excellent host matrices of phosphors.

Lattice Effect on Magnetic and Electrical Properties of Ln2/3Pb1/3MnO3 （Ln=La,Pr, Nd） Films

Lattice effect on magnetic and electrical transport properties of Ln2/3Pb1/3MnO3 （Ln=La, Pr, Nd） films prepared by RF magnetron sputtering technique were investigated. With the decrease of the average ions radius 〈rA〉, the structure of Ln2/3Pb1/3MnO3 （Ln=La, Pr, Nd） targets transit from the rhombohedral phase to the orthorhombic phase, and the Curie temperature reduces rapidly with the decrease of 〈rA〉. The electrical properties show that films are the metallic state which can be fitted to the formula： ρ（T）=ρ0 ＋ ρ1T^2 ＋ ρ2T^4.5 at low temperatures. The temperature range of the ferromagnetic metallic state becomes narrow with the decrease of 〈rA〉. The phenomenon can be explained by the lattice effect.

Au-modified silicon nanowires for surface-enhanced fluorescence of Ln3+ (Ln = Pr, Nd, Ho, and Er)

The interaction of the surface plasmons of gold nanoparticles on silicon nanowires with fluorophores, lanthanide ions (praseodymium ions, Pr³⁺, neodymium ions Nd³⁺, holmium ions Ho³⁺, and erbium ions Er³⁺) was investigated. In the presence of Au/Si nanomaterials, the fluorescence peaks were significantly enhanced, which resulted in about 2 orders of magnitude enhancement. The photoluminescence studies revealed that the enhanced fluorescence originates from the local field enhancement around Ln³⁺ ions, caused by the electronic plasmons resonance of the gold nanoparticles. Results showed that this Au/Si nanostructure had larger enhancement factor than that caused by unsupported Au nanoparticles. These results might be explained by the local field overlap originated from the closed and fixed gold nanoparticles on silicon nanowires.

Preparation and thermophysical properties of nano-sized Ln2Zr2O7 (Ln?=?La, Nd, Sm, and Gd) ceramics with pyrochlore structure

Rare earth zirconates (Ln₂Zr₂O₇, Ln = La, Nd, Sm, and Gd) with pyrochlore structure were prepared by hydrothermal method with polyethylene glycol as surfactant. X-ray diffraction, thermogravimetric analysis/differential scanning calorimetry, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and field emission scanning electron microscopy were utilized to characterize the phase structure, thermal decomposition, and morphology of the products. Qualitative analysis indicates that the as-prepared zirconates are pyrochlore-type structures. The specific surface area, lattice parameter, and average crystallite size of the as-prepared products are closely related to the ionic radius. The activation energy of crystal growth shows an increasing trend with the decrease in ionic radii. The sintering behavior of compacted body was also investigated, revealing that the sintering-resistance properties of Ln₂Zr₂O₇ are descending as the order of La₂Zr₂O₇, Nd₂Zr₂O₇, Sm₂Zr₂O₇, and Gd₂Zr₂O₇.     

Rare earth niobium oxynitrides, LnNbON2−δ (Ln = Y, La, Pr, Nd, Gd, Dy): Synthesis, structure and properties

Ammonolysis of rare earth niobates of the type LnNbO₄ (Ln = Y, La, Pr, Nd, Gd, Dy) yields oxynitrides of different structures. When Ln = La, Nd and Pr, the structure is that of an orthorhombic perovskite of the general formula LnNbON₂. As the size of the rare earth decreases, the oxynitride has a nitrogen-deficient defect fluorite (Ln = Pr, Nd, Gd), or pyrochlore (Ln = Y) structure. The IR spectra of the oxynitrides and the corresponding oxides are significantly different. Thermogravimetric analysis suggests the formation of an intermediate phase wherein the N₂ molecule is attached to the oxide lattice above 400 °C and decomposes to give the oxide on heating in an oxygen atmosphere. Raman spectra of the intermediate phases show evidence for the NN stretching vibration. Gadolinium niobium oxynitride is found to be paramagnetic.
