BiFeO3 nanoparticles with different average grain sizes have been prepared through a polyacrylamide gel route. In the present synthesis route, the grain size is tailored by varying the ratio of bis-acrylamide to acrylamide. The photocatalytic activity of the as-prepared BiFeO3 nanoparticles has been investigated by the degradation of methyl orange (MO), a typical azo dye. It is revealed that the products exhibit a pronounced photocatalytic activity under ultraviolet as well as visible-light irradiation. With decrease in particle size, the photocatalytic activity exhibits a rising trend. The influences of catalyst dosage and initial dye concentration on the photocatalytic efficiency have been also investigated. In the present experiments, the optimum loading of BiFeO3 nanoparticles and initial concentration of MO are obtained to be ~ 2.5 g L−1 and ~ 10 mg L−1, respectively.  相似文献

Trimanganese tetraoxide (Mn3O4) nanoparticles have been synthesized via hydrothermal process. Nevertheless, homogeneous nanoparticles of Mn3O4 with platelet lozange shape were obtained. The crystallite size ranged from 40 to 70 nm. The Mn3O4 product was investigated by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy (MET), and impedance spectroscopy. Electrical conductivity measurements showed that the as-synthesized Mn3O4 nanomaterial has a conductivity value which goes from 1.8 10−7 Ω−1 cm−1 at 298 K, to 23 10−5 Ω−1 cm−1 at 493 K. The temperature dependence of the conductivity between 298 and 493 K obeys to Arrhenius law with an activation energy of 0.48 eV.  相似文献

Mn3O4 nanoparticles were prepared by a novel oxidation-precipitation method at a low temperature. The crystal phase, microstructure, surface area and electrochemical properties of the products were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), N2 adsorption-desorption isotherms and cyclic voltammetry (CV). The results indicate that the addition of citric acid and tartaric acid remarkably reduced the particle size and increased the specific surface area of Mn3O4 nanoparticles. The samples prepared by the addition of citric acid and tartaric acid have a narrow particle size distribution of 5-10 nm, a surface area of 119 and 122 m2/g, and a capacitance of 171 and 172 F g−1, respectively.  相似文献

In the present work, Ni doped In2O3 nanoparticles were prepared using simple co-precipitation method. From the x-ray diffraction analysis it is observed that all samples exhibit single phase polycrystalline nature. All the diffraction lines correspond to the bixbyite type cubic structure. A UV visible analysis reveals that optical band gap decreases from 4.63 to 3.84 eV with Ni doping. DC magnetization measurements reveal that Ni doped In2O3 nanoparticles exhibit room temperature ferromagnetism.  相似文献

By the reaction system of CrO3 and HCHO in aqueous solution, Cr2O3 nanoparticles were first prepared via hydrothermal synthesis. The process can be easily scaled up. The reaction time was only 1 h and the reaction temperature was 170 °C. The products were loosely agglomerated Cr2O3 particles of 50-70 nm in average particle size calculated from the Scherrer's formula, whose microstructure and that of the precursor were investigated by SEM. And IR, TG and BET were other characterization methods to study the process. The findings showed that the higher calcination temperature and the higher total concentration were factors to result in the larger average particle size.  相似文献

The emergence of nanotechnology imposes a new level of control in the synthesis of materials, one in which the structure and chemistry have to be controlled and characterized at the nanoscale. The solution combustion synthesis method has been used to synthesize many different oxides, including luminescent ones. However, a systematic investigation of the dopant homogeneity at the nanoscale in materials produced by this method is lacking. This is of particular relevance in nanophosphors due to the possibility of concentration quenching. In this work, 5 at.% Tb-doped Y2O3 was prepared by the solution combustion synthesis method and investigated on its structure and chemical composition homogeneity at the nanoscale by means of electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM), high resolution TEM, X-ray diffraction and photoluminescence measurements. The results show that it is possible to prepare luminescent materials by the solution combustion synthesis method where the dopant is homogeneously distributed within each nanoparticle.  相似文献

A novel method for preparing Al2O3/ZrO2 (Y2O3) eutectic was developed by combining combustion synthesis with melt-casting under ultra-high gravity (CSMC-UHG). The application of UHG = 800 g resulted in a high relative density of 99.8%, and an orientation-growth along the UHG direction. The microstructure was composed of aligned growth regimes containing a triangular dispersion of orderly ZrO2 rods in Al2O3 matrix with a spacing of 300 nm. The eutectic had a high fracture toughness up to 17.9 MPa·m1/2, which was mainly attributed to the nanostructure and the elastic bridge effects of the aligned ZrO2 rods.  相似文献

An effective, simple and green synthesis method based on hydrothermal stripping technique, in which ferrous ion was stripped and precipitated directly from iron (II)-loaded organic phase, has been successfully developed. X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM) showed that the samples synthesized at 140-250 °C with raw materials LiOH, H3PO4 and FeSO4·7H2O are well-defined spherical LiFePO4 nanoparticles, and the particle size can be easily controlled by changing the temperature and time. Electrochemical tests showed that the sample has a higher cell performance as a cathode material. Our results suggest that hydrothermal stripping synthesis is a promising method for obtaining spherical LiFePO4 nanoparticles without agglomeration.  相似文献

Size-dependent piezoelectric coefficient d33(D) (D shows particle diameter) for small ferroelectrics is modeled in this paper. It is found that taking account of size effect is essential in understanding piezoelectric characteristics of nanoferroelectrics. The model prediction is in good agreement with the experimental results for PbTiO3 nanoparticles, where d33(D) increases correspondingly as D decreases. In addition, the size effect of the dielectric susceptibility coefficient η33(D) is also predicted since η33(D) ∝ d33(D) is considered. Our model estimations for η33(D) function are consistent with other theoretical evidences.  相似文献

Lithium niobate crystal was successfully synthesized via hydrothermal synthesis method using LiOH·H2O or LiNO3 and Nb2O5 as starting materials in water or ammonia solution. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectra and Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used to characterize the as-prepared samples. The synthesis conditions such as crystallization temperature and time as well as ammonia concentration (when using LiNO3 as Li source) were investigated. The results demonstrate that the crystallization and purity of the as-prepared samples were increased with the increase of time when temperature was at 260 °C. When using LiNO3 as Li source a basic solution was necessary to synthesize LiNbO3. In the present work ammonia solution was used instead of water to obtain alkalescence solvent. XRD results revealed that the as-prepared samples had a hexagonal structure. FT-IR results displayed that the LiNbO3 phase could be completely formed and no secondary phase was found under proper conditions. SEM picture showed that the morphology of the sample was more perfect and bigger with increasing reaction time.  相似文献

A novel salt-assisted low temperature solid state method using CoCl2?6H2O, FeCl3?6H2O and NaOH as pre- cursor and using NaCl as a dispersant to synthesize high surface area CoFe2O4 nanoparticles, has been investigated. The effects of the molar ratio of added salt and calcination temperature on the characteristics of the products were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM) and Brunauer, Emmett and Teller (BET) surface area analysis. Results showed that the introduction of leachable inert inorganic salt as a hard agglomeration inhibitor in the mixture precursor led to the formation of high dispersive CoFe2O4 nanoparticles; and the increase in specific surface area from 28.28 to 73.97 m2/g, and the saturation magnetization is 84.6 emu/g.  相似文献

Three ceramic systems, CaTiO3 (CTO), CaCu3Ti4O12 (CCTO) and intermediate nonstoichiometric CaTiO3/CaCu3Ti4O12 mixtures (CTO.CCTO), were investigated and characterized. The ceramics were sintered at 1100 °C for 180 min. The surface morphology and structures were investigated by XRD and SEM. Elastic modulus and hardness of the surfaces were studied by instrumented indentation. It was observed that CCTO presented the higher mechanical properties (E = 256 GPa, hardness = 10.6 GPa), while CTO/CCTO mixture showed intermediate properties between CTO and CCTO.  相似文献

Thin films of the relaxor ferroelectric Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-PbTiO3 (PMN-PT) on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si (Pt/Si) substrates both with and without a Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3 (PZT) interfacial layer were investigated. Perovskite and pyrochlore coexistence was observed for PMN-PT thin films without a PZT interfacial layer. Interestingly, most of the pyrochlore phase was observed in single-coated films and in the first layer of multi-coated films. The pyrochlore phase exhibited grains with an average size of about 25 nm, which is smaller than those of the perovskite phase (about 90 nm). In contrast, for PMN-PT thin films grown on a PZT interfacial layer, the formation of a pyrochlore phase at the interface between PMN-PT layers and the substrate is completely suppressed. Moreover, small grains are not observed in the films with a PZT interfacial layer. The measured polarization-electric field (P-E) hysteresis loops of PMN-PT films with and without PZT layers indicate that enhanced electrical properties can be obtained when a PZT interfacial layer is used. These enhanced properties include an increase in the value of remanent polarization Pr from 2.7 to 5.8 μC/cm2 and a decrease in the coercive field Ec from 60.5 to 28.0 kV/cm.  相似文献

Epitaxial thin films of a heterostructure with Bi4Ti3O12(BIT)/SrTiO3(ST) were successfully grown with a bottom electrode consisting of La0.5Sr0.5CoO3(LSCO) on MgO(001) substrates using pulsed laser deposition. The grown BIT and ST (001) planes were parallel to the growth surface with the orientation relationship of BIT <110>//ST <010>. In the as-deposited film, the BIT (001) plane appeared to expand to relieve a lattice mismatch with the ST (001) plane. However, annealing for 20-40 min induced the BIT (001) plane to contract horizontally with its c-axis expanding, which was associated with a local perturbation in the layer stacking of the BIT structure. This structural distortion was reduced in the film annealed for 1 h, with restoration of the periodicity of the layer stacking. Correspondingly, the dielectric constant of the as-deposited film was increased from 292 to 411 by annealing for 1 h. In parallel, the film was paraelectric but became more ferroelectric, with the remanent polarization and the coercive field changing from 0.1 μC/cm2 and 14 kV/cm to 1.7 μC/cm2 and 69 kV/cm, respectively.  相似文献

Multiferroic BiFeO3 (BFO) nanoparticles ranging from 60 nm to 120 nm were synthesized successfully by a sol-gel method, and the microwave absorption properties of BFO nanoparticles were investigated in the range of 12.4 GHz to 18 GHz. The reflection loss of BFO nanoparticles is more than 10 dB (or more than 90%) in the 13.1 GHz-18 GHz range and reaches to 26 dB at 16.3 GHz, which indicated that the BFO is a good candidate for microwave absorption application. The excellent microwave absorption properties of BFO nanoparticles could be attributed to the good electromagnetic match as a consequence of the coexistence of ferroelectric and weak ferromagnetic order in BFO nanoparticles, which has been confirmed by electric and magnetic measurement. Moreover, the nanosize-confinement effect may also have contribution to the high reflection loss of BFO nanoparticles.  相似文献

Nanocrystalline Nd2(Zr1 − xSnx)2O7 series solid solutions were prepared by a convenient salt-assisted combustion process using glycine as fuel. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. The results showed the Zr ion can be partially replaced by Sn ion. The partial substituted products were still single-phase solid solutions and the crystal form remained unchanged. TEM images reveal that the products are composed of well-dispersed square-shaped nanocrystals. The method provides a convenient and low-cost route for the synthesis of nanostructures of oxide materials.  相似文献

Well dispersed Fe3O4 nanoparticles with a mean diameter of about 160 nm were synthesized by a simple hydrothermal method in the presence of sodium sulfate. The products were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Raman spectrum, and Fourier transform infrared spectra (FTIR). Electrochemical properties of the nanostructured Fe3O4 as cathode electrodes of lithium ion battery were studied by conventional charge/discharge tests, showing a high initial discharge capacity of 1267 mA h g− 1 at a current density of 0.1 mA cm− 2.  相似文献

A new type of visible-light-driven photocatalyst BaCo0.5Nb0.5O3 was successfully synthesized via a sol-gel process in this study. After heating the precursors at 1000 °C, a pure perovskite phase was obtained. The particle size and crystallinity of BaCo0.5Nb0.5O3 powders markedly increased with a rise in the calcination temperature. The band gap of BaCo0.5Nb0.5O3 calculated from the UV-visible spectra was found to be less than that of titania. BaCo0.5Nb0.5O3 was demonstrated to have photocatalytic activity under visible light irradiation and this activity significantly depended on the synthesis temperature. The sol-gel derived powders were found to have better photocatalytic activity than the solid-state derived powders because of the reduced particle size and increased surface area.  相似文献

Cobalt oxide (Co3O4) nanoparticles were successfully synthesized by the cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB)-assisted method at normal pressure for the first time. The structure and morphology of the as-prepared Co3O4 nanoparticles were characterized by powder X-ray diffracton (XRD), infrared spectroscopy (IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and N2-sorption analysis. XRD studies indicated that the as-prepared product was well-crystallized cubic phase of Co3O4 with a cell constant of α = 8.0722 Å. The EM images showed that the obtained Co3O4 sample consisted of dispersive quasi-spherical particles with the size ranged from 15 to 25 nm.  相似文献
