Substituting Pb2+ for Bi3+ in BiFeO3 can induce lattice distortions and structural transitions to tune the lone-pair activity for ferroelectricity and neutralized oxygen vacancies to valence Fe2+/Fe3+ ions for ferromagnetism.

Mullite is an aluminium-silicate mineral of current interest since it is a potential candidate for high temperature applications in the ceramic materials field.In the present work, conditions under which the structure of mullite can be optimally imaged by means of High Resolution Electron Microscopy (HREM) have been investigated. Special reference is made to the Atomic Resolution Microscope at Berkeley which allows real space information up to ≈ 0.17 nm to be directly transferred; numerous multislice calculations (conducted with the CEMPAS programs) as well as extensive experimental through-focus series taken from a commercial “3:2” mullite at 800 kV clearly show that a resolution of at least 0.19 nm is required if one wants to get a straightforward confirmation of atomic models of mullite, which is known to undergo non-stoichiometry associated with the presence of oxygen vacancies.Indeed the composition of mullite ranges from approximatively 3Al2O3-2SiO2 (referred here as 3:2-mullite) to 2Al2O3-1SiO2, and its structure is still the subject of refinements (see, for example, refs. 4, 5, 6).

The black TiO\(_2\) with substantial Ti\(^3+\) and oxygen vacancies exhibit an excellent photoelectrochemical water-splitting performance due to the improved charge transport the extended visible light response. In this study, black TiO\(_2\) nanotube arrays synthesized by the anodization method, and then, they have been investigated some characterizations by spectroscopic methods such as UV-visible reflectance (UV-vis DRS), Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Raman spectroscopy, and photoluminescence spectrum. The results showed that some highlighted properties of the black TiO2 nanotube arrays and they could apply for water-splitting effect.
