Sintering-driven effects on the band gap of (Pb,La)(Ti,Ni)O3 photovoltaic ceramics

In this work, the influence of the sintering temperature on the physical properties of (Pb_0.8La_0.2)(Ti_0.9Ni_0.1)O₃ (PLT-Ni) ceramics is reported. The experimental data revealed that the energy band gap of PLT-Ni ceramics could be tailored from approximately 2.7 to 2.0 eV by changing the sintering temperature from 1100°C to 1250°C. It is demonstrated that the simple substitution of Ti⁴⁺ by Ni²⁺ cations is effective to decrease the intrinsic band gap while increasing the tetragonality factor and the spontaneous polarization. However, the additional red-shift observed in the absorption edge of the PLT-Ni with increasing the sintering temperature was associated with a continuous increase in the oxygen vacancies () amount. It is believed that the impact of the creation of these thermally induced is manifold. The presence of and Ni²⁺ ions generate the Ni²⁺- defect-pairs that promoted both a decrease in the intrinsic band gap and an additional increase of the tetragonality factor, consequently, increasing the spontaneous polarization. The creation of Ni²⁺- defects also changed the local symmetry of Ni²⁺ ions from octahedral to a square pyramid, thus lifting the degeneracy of the Ni²⁺ 3d orbitals. With the increase in the sintering temperature, lower-energy absorbing intraband states were also formed due to an excess of , being responsible for an add-on shoulder in the absorption edge, extending the light absorption curve to longer wavelengths and leading to an additional absorption in “all investigated” spectrum as well.     

Electrical Characterization of a Joined Electroceramic, La0.85Sr0.15MnO3

Pieces of saw-cut La_0.85Sr_0.15MnO₃ were joined at 1150° and 1250°C under a compressive stress. The strains to form the joints were ∼0.1. Joints formed by plastic deformation were examined using scanning electron microscopy, and they were indistinguishable from the bulk. The room-temperature direct-current resistivity of the joined pieces was identical to that measured in the bulk material. This indicated that a sound, electrically conducting joint could be formed using plastic deformation (grain-boundary sliding) with little surface preparation.     

Smart Electroceramics

"Smart" materials have the ability to perform both sensing and actuating functions. Passively smart materials respond to external change in a useful manner without assistance, whereas actively smart materials have a feedback loop which allows them to both recognize the change and initiate an appropriate response through an actuator circuit. Many smart materials are analogous to biological systems: piezoelectric hydrophones are similar in mechanism to the "ears" by which a fish senses vibrations. Piezoelectrics with electromechanical coupling, shape-memory materials that can "remember" their original shape, electrorheological fluids with adjustable viscosities, and chemical sensors which act as synthetic equivalents to the human nose are examples of smart electroceramics. "Very smart" materials, in addition to sensing and actuating, have the ability to "learn" by altering their property coefficients in response to the environment. Integration of these different technologies into compact, multifunction packages is the ultimate goal of research in the area of smart materials.     

BaTiO3–Bi(Mg2/3Nb1/3)O3 Ceramics for High‐Temperature Capacitor Applications

Solid solutions of (1?x)BaTiO₃–xBi(Mg_2/3Nb_1/3)O₃ (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.6) were prepared via a standard mixed‐oxide solid‐state sintering route and investigated for potential use in high‐temperature capacitor applications. Samples with 0.4 ≤ x ≤ 0.6 showed a temperature independent plateau in permittivity (ε_r). Optimum properties were obtained for x = 0.5 which exhibited a broad and stable relative ε_r ~940 ± 15% from ~25°C to 550°C with a loss tangent <0.025 from 74°C to 455°C. The resistivity of samples increased with increasing Bi(Mg_2/3Nb_1/3)O₃ concentration. The activation energies of the bulk were observed to increase from 1.18 to 2.25 eV with an increase in x from 0 to 0.6. These ceramics exhibited excellent temperature stable dielectric properties and are promising candidates for high‐temperature multilayer ceramic capacitors for automotive applications.     

Synthesis of Al2O3-SiC powder from electroceramics waste and its application in low-carbon MgO-C refractories

Composite additives are an efficient means to improve the high-temperature stability and slag resistance of low-carbon MgO-C refractories. In this work, Al₂O₃-SiC powder was firstly synthesized from electroceramics waste by carbon embedded method at 1500°C, 1550°C, and 1600°C for 4 h, and then the as-synthesized Al₂O₃-SiC powder was used as an additive to low-carbon MgO-C refractories. The effects of its addition amounts of 0, 2.5 wt.%, 5.0 wt.%, and 7.5 wt.% on the properties of the refractories were investigated in detail. It was found that increasing the heat treatment temperature is beneficial to the phase conversion of mullite and quartz to alumina and silicon carbide in the electroceramics waste. Furthermore, the addition of Al₂O₃-SiC powder effectively improves the performance of low-carbon MgO-C samples, and the formation of spinel dense layer and high-viscosity isolation layer is the internal reason for the improvement of the oxidation resistance and slag resistance of low-carbon MgO-C samples. This work provides ideas for the reuse of electroceramics waste and presents an alternative strategy for the performance optimization of low-carbon MgO-C refractories.

Finite element modeling of resistive surface layers by micro-contact impedance spectroscopy

Micro-contact impedance spectroscopy (MCIS) is potentially a powerful tool for the exploration of resistive surface layers on top of a conductive bulk or substrate material. MCIS employs micro-contacts in contrast to conventional IS where macroscopic electrodes are used. To extract the conductivity of each region accurately using MCIS requires the data to be corrected for geometry. Using finite element modeling on a system where the resistivity of the surface layer is at least a factor of ten greater than the bulk/substrate, we show how current flows through the two layers using two typical micro-contact configurations. This allows us to establish if and what is the most accurate and reliable method for extracting conductivity values for both regions. For a top circular micro-contact and a full bottom counter electrode, the surface layer conductivity (σ_s) can be accurately extracted using a spreading resistance equation if the thickness is ~10 times the micro-contact radius; however, bulk conductivity (σ_b) values can not be accurately determined. If the contact radius is 10 times the thickness of the resistive surface, a geometrical factor using the micro-contact area provides accurate σ_s values. In this case, a spreading resistance equation also provides a good approximation for σ_b. For two top circular micro-contacts on thin resistive surface layers, the MCIS response from the surface layer is independent of the contact separation; however, the bulk response is dependent on the contact separation and at small separations contact interference occurs. As a consequence, there is not a single ideal experimental setup that works; to obtain accurate σ_s and σ_b values the micro-contact radius, surface layer thickness and the contact separation must all be considered together. Here we provide scenarios where accurate σ_s and σ_b values can be obtained that highlight the importance of experimental design and where appropriate equations can be employed for thin and thick resistive surface layers.

Pr3+/Er3+ Codoped Ge-As-Ga-S Glasses as Dual-Wavelength Fiber-optic Amplifiers for 1.31 and 1.55 μm Windows

Fluorescence emissions at both 1.31 and 1.55 μm communication windows were observed from Pr³⁺/Er³⁺ codoped Ge-As-Ga-S glasses with a single wavelength pumping at 986 nm. The lifetime of the Er³⁺:⁴ I _11/2 level decreased as the Pr³⁺ concentration increased, and that of the Pr³⁺:¹ G ₄ level increased as the Er³⁺ concentration increased. Energy transfer from the Er³⁺:⁴ I _11/2 level to the Pr³⁺:¹ G ₄ level was responsible for emission of the 1.31 μm fluorescence from the Pr³⁺:¹ G ₄ level. Ge-As-Ga-S glasses that have been doped with Pr³⁺ and Er³⁺ cations are promising amplifier materials for both 1.31 and 1.55 μm communication windows.
