Aluminum antimonide is a semiconductor of the Group III-V order. With a wide indirect band gap, AlSb is one of the least discovered of this family of semiconductors. Bulk synthesis of AlSb has been reported on numerous occasions, but obtaining a single phase has always proven to be extremely difficult. This work reports a simple method for the synthesis of single-phase AlSb. Subsequently, consolidation was done into a near single-phase highly dense semiconductor in a form usable for thermoelectric applications. Further, the thermoelectric properties of this system are accounted for the first time. In addition, the mechanical properties of the intermetallic compound are briefly discussed for a possibility of further use.

Single-phase polycrystalline samples of RBa2Cu2.9Zn0.1Oy (R = Y, Nd, Gd, Er, and Tm) (ZnR123) were synthesized using the standard solid-state reaction method. They were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope. XRD shows that all samples consist essentially of a single phase and retain the orthorhombic structure. The structure of the samples was refined by the Rietveld method with the help of the bond valence sum method. The variation of the lattice parameters and some meaningful bond angles and lengths with the ionic radius are discussed. In these compounds, the variations of the buckling angles Cu2–O(2,3)–Cu2 and Cu2–Cu2–O(2,3) are unique: the bond angles Cu2–O3–Cu2 and Cu2–Cu2–O2 increase, whereas the bond angles Cu2–O2–Cu2 and Cu2–Cu2–O3 decrease. The variation of these bond angles brings about a strong curvature of the Cu2O plane. Furthermore, we have found tree fixed triangles formed by the Cu2, O2, and O3 atoms in addition to another fixed triangle O1–Ba–O1 observed for the first time. BVS of Cu2 atom shows a specific and unique variation compared with other compounds.

Abstract Refractory ‘stuffed’ pyrochlores such as Gd2TiO5 are of interest for nuclear applications, including as matrices for actinide disposition and as neutron absorbers in control rods. Here, we report the results of a preliminary comparative investigation of the synthesis of Gd2TiO5 by molten salt and conventional solid-state synthesis. We show that synthesis of Gd2TiO5 proceeds from the pyrochlore phase Gd2Ti2O7 which is first formed as a kinetic product. Molten salt synthesis afforded single phase Gd2TiO5 at 1300 °C in 2 h, via a template growth mechanism, and is effective for the synthesis of these refractory materials. This work demonstrates molten salt mediated synthesis of ‘stuffed’ pyrochlore for the first time. Graphic abstract

Single-phase complex oxides Nd2-yCayCoxNi1-xO4 have been synthesized for the first time. Composites prepared by the reduction of these compounds with hydrogen and containing Nd2O3, CaO, and cobalt and nickels metals have been used for the first time as catalysts of the partial oxidation of methane. The maximal methane conversions (97%) and syngas yields (96%) at 900 °С have been detected in the presence of the composite obtained from Nd1,5Ca0,5NiO4. At T < 850 °C, the nickel–cobalt composite synthesized from Nd1,3Ca0,7Co0,4Ni0,6O4 turned out to be more selective in the formation of syngas. Decreasing the partial oxidation temperature from 900 °С to 750 °С leads to the oxidation of metallic nickel and cobalt to oxides and to partial resynthesis of complex oxides with perovskite and K2NiF4 structures. The observed differences in temperature dependence of the catalytic properties of composites with various Ni/Co ratios can be associated with the participation of complex oxides in catalysis of the partial oxidation of methane at low temperatures.
