We have investigated thermally induced strain in the SiC crystal lattice during physical vapor transport bulk growth. Using high energy x-ray diffraction lattice plane bending was observed in-situ during growth. With increasing growth rate increasing lattice plane bending and, hence, strain was observed. A comparison with numerical modeling of the growth process shows that the latter is related to the heat of crystallization which needs to be dissipated from the crystal growth front. The related temperature gradient as driving force for the dissipation of the heat of crystallization causes lattice plane bending. Optimization of the growth process needs to consider such effects.

Abstract In this paper, we reported the synthesis of NiO NPs and Mg doped-NiO NPs using the facile sol-gel method. Besides, the influence of the variation of Mg dopant on the structural, morphological and optical properties of the prepared Mg-NiO NPs was studied. The synthesized Mg-NiO NPs nanoparticles were characterized by X-Ray Diffraction Analysis (XRD), Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS), Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), Field-Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FE-SEM), and UV-Vis spectrophotometer. The X-ray diffraction confirmed the formation of the cubic structure of Mg doped-NiO NPs after doping with the magnesium. The increase in the crystal size was observed with the increase in the concentration of the Mg dopant element. The FESEM images reveal the formation of nickel oxide through the appearance of spherical clusters, while the hybrids appear as wrinkled surface covered with spherical particles of magnesium. The UV-Vis spectrum showed a shift towards shorter wavelengths with an increase in the concentration of the Mg dopant element due to the quantum confinement effect. The hemolysis activity study showed that NiO NPs had a low hemolysis percentage of 1.47% and increased with increasing concentration. While, increasing of the RBC hemolysis (5.9%) after NiO doped with Mg. The antibacterial activity was studied against S. aureus and P. aeruginosa bacteria, and indicated the highest growth inhibition zones of Mg-doped NiO NPs as compared with NiO NPs against of Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa, respectively.

ABSTRACTThe present work focuses on the polyol-mediated synthesis of pure and Mg-doped ZnO nanoparticles. The synthesized samples were characterized via X-ray diffraction, Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy, ultraviolet visible spectroscopy and photoluminescence techniques. The Standard Plate Count was used to assess the bactericidal properties of the nanoparticles against E. coli at 1000 ppm and 1500 ppm of concentration. The capacity of the Zn-Mg oxides to generate singlet oxygen (SO) species was also evaluated. X-ray diffraction information evidenced the formation of ZnO-wurtzite; no diffraction peaks corresponding to isolated Mg-phases were detected. The average crystallite size of the Zn-Mg oxide nanocrystals was estimated in the 6nm - 7nm range. Infrared spectroscopy measurements confirmed the formation of the oxide with a Metal-Oxygen band centered on 536 cm-1; other bands associated to the functional groups of polyol by product were also observed. The exciton peak of UV spectrum suggests similarity in the particle size with the dopant addition. The effect of particle composition (i.e. doping level) on the corresponding generation of SO and bactericidal capacity is presented and discussed.

In this study, the mechanochemical method was employed to synthesize hydroxyapatite (HA) and magnesium (Mg) doped hydroxyapatite (HA) powders. The effect of Mg2+ into the synthesized HA powder properties were investigated. Characterization of the synthesized HA and Mg doped HA at various concentrations (1% - 5% MgHA) were accomplished through X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analyses. nanosize of HA and Mg doped HA powders were successfully synthesized through the present method as indicated from the different peaks intensity and adsorption bands obtained in XRD pattern and FTIR respectively.

AbstractMg- doped Ba0.96 Ca0.04 Ti0.84Zr0.16O3 (BCTZ) thin films were fabricated on Pt/MgO substrate by metallorganic decomposition method. The structure of the films were analyzed by x-ray diffraction. The electrical measurements were performed on metal-ferroelectric-metal capacitors with platinum as the top and bottom electrode. The dielectric properties were improved after the capacitors were post annealed at 700 °C in oxygen atmosphere for 30 min. A high dielectric constant of 504 and a dissipation factor of less than 4% was obtained at 1 MHz. The Pt/BCTZ/Pt/MgO capacitors exhibited high tunability of 55% at an applied field of 55 kV/cm.

Si (111) wafers deformed at elevated temperatures into cylindrical or hemispherical shapes have been examined by X-ray diffraction. Well defined 333 peaks shifted with in-plane distance from the centre of the wafer as determined by ω scans. The shift of the peak position agreed with the curvature of the Si wafer, suggesting that the Si (111) lattice plane can be designed on an arbitrarily curved surface by this method. These crystals have potential for innovative applications in X-ray instrumentation, for both diffraction/scattering and spectroscopy.

The crystal structures of the α and β modifications of PTCDA were analyzed as projected structures along the a axes by electron crystallography using an imaging plate. The results for the α modification agree well with the sheet-and-stack structure obtained by X-ray diffraction by M. L. Kaplan et al. (private communication, full set of crystal structure data). Projected onto the (102) plane, which is parallel to the molecular sheets, the long molecular axis makes an angle of 42° with the b axis and the hexagonal benzene rings appear slightly elongated, indicating a slight inclination of the molecular plane from the (102) lattice plane. For the β modification, it was concluded that the molecules are aligned in a herringbone packing scheme on the (102) plane similar to that of the α modification, but with a slightly different angle of the long molecular axis with the b axis (38°).

Abstract ZnO nanostructures are promising for a wide range of applications, including gas sensors. Ethanol sensing using ZnO remains unexplored though. In this paper, we report ethanol-sensing using un-doped ZnO nano flowers and Mg doped ZnO nano flowers. These are grown using a rather simple chemo-thermal process, making this a plausibly scalable technology. To study the structural and morphological properties of undoped ZnO and Mg doped ZnO nanoflowers, Raman spectroscopy, Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), x-ray diffraction and Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM) are carried out. Ethanol sensing properties of undoped ZnO and Mg doped ZnO nanoflower devices are investigated toward different ethanol concentration (concentration range of 1–600 ppm at 100°C–200°C). Our findings show that 15% Mg doped ZnO nano flower is better than ZnO nano flower for ethanol gas-sensing applications.
