Various (ZnO)5In2O3ceramics were fabricated by microwave heating. Density, XRD pattern and microstructure were examined and those of Al-doped (ZnO)5In2O3were almost the same as Al-free one. Highly textured (ZnO)5In2O3ceramic was also fabricated by reactive templated grain growth (RTGG) method. The electrical conductivity was not improved by Al-doping; however it was improved slightly by microwave heating compared with conventional heating and especially improved by texturing using RTGG method. On the other hand, the absolute Seebeck coefficient in microwave heating was improved about 25% by Al-doped. Maximum electric power factor of textured specimen fabricated by RTGG method along ab-plane showed 5.76×10-4WK-2m-1(at 873K), which was attributed to high electrical conductivity.

ABSTRACTPulsed laser-induced melting followed by crystallization and amorphization were studied on silicon-germanium alloy (SiGe) films. Although amorphization was achieved on SiGe films, it was not observed in pure Ge films. Crystalline nucleation density in homogeneous solidification increased as Ge concentration increased. It was 1×1024m-3for Si0.22Ge0.78 films, while it was 4×1022m-3 for pUre si films. Electrical conductivity of laser polycrystallized films increased as Ge concentration increased. It had a maximum of 1 S/cm when Ge concentration was 0.78. This high electrical conductivity would be brought about by the increase of carrier mobility as well as the reduction of the band gap.

Functional floating bead (F-FB), prepared by anchoring the organic sulfonic acid on the surface of the blackberry-like structural FB, was used as both the inorganic substrate and the in situ dopant for the in situ chemical oxidative polymerization of pyrrole to obtain the plypyrrole/functional floating bead (PPy/F-FB) nanocomposite material. The composites possess high electrical conductivity at room temperature. Thermogravimetric analysis shows that the thermal stability of PPy/F-FB composites was enhanced and these can be attributed to the retardation effect of sulfonic acid-functionalized FB as barriers for the degradation of PPy. The morphology of PPy/FB composites showed the well-defined blackberry-like morphology.

We have established a novel method of inserting poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) between the layers ofV2O5using a soft process of intercalation. The reaction takes place with the in situ polymerization of EDOT within the framework of crystallineV2O5with different nominal EDOT/V2O5ratios. The hybrids PEDOT/V2O5exhibit a high electrical conductivity

The water-dispersed conductive polypyrrole (PPy) was prepared via thein situoxidative chemical polymerization by using ammonium persulfate (APS) as oxidant and tunicate cellulose nanocrystals (T-CNs) as a dopant and template for tuning the morphologies of PPy nanoparticles. Highly flexible paper-like materials of PPy/T-CNs nanocomposites with high electrical conductivity values and good mechanical properties were prepared. The structure of nanocomposites of PPy/T-CNs was investigated by using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy analyses of the composites revealed that PPy consisted of nanoparticles about 2.5 nm in mean size to form a continuous coating covered on the T-CNs. The diameters of the PPy nanoparticles increased from 10 to 100 nm with the increasing pyrrole amount. Moreover, electrical properties of the obtained PPy/T-CNs films were studied using standard four-probe technique and the electrical conductivity could be as high as 10−3 S/cm.

AbstractThe dehydration and decarbonation in the subducting slab are intricately related and the knowledge of the physical properties of the resulting C–H–O fluid is crucial to interpret the petrological, geochemical, and geophysical processes associated with subduction zones. In this study, we investigate the C–H–O fluid released during the progressive devolatilization of carbonate-bearing serpentine-polymorph chrysotile, with in situ electrical conductivity measurements at high pressures and temperatures. The C–H–O fluid produced by carbonated chrysotile exhibits high electrical conductivity compared to carbon-free aqueous fluids and can be an excellent indicator of the migration of carbon in subduction zones. The crystallization of diamond and graphite indicates that the oxidized C–H–O fluids are responsible for the recycling of carbon in the wedge mantle. The carbonate and chrysotile bearing assemblages stabilize dolomite during the devolatilization process. This unique dolomite forming mechanism in chrysotile in subduction slabs may facilitate the transport of carbon into the deep mantle.
