Physical Quantities

Polycrystalline films of tin telluride were prepared by sintering technique. The structural investigation of the films with different thicknesses enables to determine lattice parameter, crystallite size and strain existing in the films. The XRD traces showed that strain was tensile in nature. The crystallite size increases with thickness while strain decreases. Higher the value of tensile strain, larger is the lattice constant. The optical energy gap shows a descending nature with increasing strain and so with the lattice constant. Such an attempt made to delve into interdependence of basic physical quantities helps to explore the properties of SnTe and utilize it as an alternative to heavy metal chalcogenides in various technological applications.

A series of solid solutions (1 − x) ZrO2 · xY0.857 W0.143 O1.714 (1/7Y6WO12) of metastable cubic phase were synthesized at 800 °C through a polymerized complex method. Lattice parameter a0 of solid solutions varies linearly with Y0.857 W0.143 O1.714 content (x). Crystallization began to occur above 400 °C from amorphous precursor to yield at 800 °C fine powders of 6–10 nm and 19–40 m2/g for crystallite size and surface area, respectively.

Nanocrystalline mixed spinel ferrite of Co0.5Ni0.5Fe2O4 magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) has been successfully synthesized by coprecipitation method and encapsulated by PEG-4000 with various concentrations. X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) patterns showed that nanoparticles contained Co0.5Ni0.5Fe2O4 spinel ferrite with crystallite size of 14.9 nm. After PEG-4000 encapsulation particles size decreased became 7.7 nm. Interaction Co0.5Ni0.5Fe2O4 nanoparticles with long chain PEG-4000 caused the crystal growth trap. Lattice parameter and X-Ray density have no significant difference after encapsulated PEG-4000. The coercivity (𝐻𝑐) of Co0.5Ni0.5Fe2O4 was 214 Oe. The 𝐻𝑐 decreased after PEG-4000 encapsulation became 127 Oe, which is due to the decrease of crystallite size. The maximum magnetization (Mmax) of Co0.5Ni0.5Fe2O4 was 12.0 emu/g, and decreased after PEG-4000 encapsulation to 11.7 emu/g, because PEG-4000 is paramagnetic. After the concentration of PEG-4000 increased, then the amount of paramagnetic material increase which lead maximum magnetization decrease.

Abstract The controlled synthesis of Cd0.9Zn0.1S, Cd0.89Zn0.1Cu0.01S and Cd0.87Zn0.1Cu0.03S nanostructures by simple chemical co-precipitation technique was reported. The XRD investigation confirmed the basic CdS cubic structure on Zn-doped CdS and also Zn, Cu dual doped CdS with no secondary/impurity related phases. No modification in cubic structure was detected during the addition of Zn/Cu into CdS. The reduction of crystallite size from 63 Å to 40 Å and the changes in lattice parameter confirmed the incorporation of Cu into Cd0.9Zn0.1S and generation of Cu related defects. The shift of absorption edge along upper wavelength region and elevated absorption intensity by Cu doping can be accredited to the collective consequence of quantization and the generation of defect associated states. The enhanced optical absorbance and the reduced energy gap recommended that Cd0.87Zn0.1Cu0.03S nanostructure is useful to enhance the efficiency of opto-electronic devices. The presence of Cd-S / Zn-Cd-S /Zn/Cu-Cd-S chemical bonding were confirmed by Fourier transform infrared investigation. The elevated green emissions by Cu incorporation was explained by decrease of crystallite size and creation of more defects. Zn, Cu dual doped CdS nanostructures are recognized as the possible and also efficient photo-catalyst for the removal dyes like methylene blue. The enhanced photo-catalytic behaviour of Zn, Cu dual doped CdS is the collective consequences of high density electron-hole pairs creation, enhanced absorbance in the visible wavelength, surface area enhancement, reduced energy gap and the formation of novel defect associated states. The stability measurement signified that Cu doped Cd0.9Zn0.1S exhibits superior dye removal ability and better stability even after 6 repetitive runs with limited photo-corrosion.

Peak Current

The nanocrystalline nickel coating was synthesized by pulse-jet electrodeposition from modified Watts bath. Pulse and jet plating was employed to increase the deposition current density, decrease diffusion layer, increase the nucleation rate and in this case the prepared method would result in fine-grained deposits. Transmission and scanning electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were used to study the microstructure, the surface morphology, the crystal preferred orientation and the variety of the lattice parameter respectively. The influence of pulse parameters, namely peak current density, the duty cycle and pulse frequency on the grain size, surface morphology, crystal orientation and microstructure was studied. The results showed that with increasing peak current density, the deposit grain size was found to decrease markedly in other parameters at constant. However, in our experiment it was found that the grain size increased slightly with increasing pulse frequency. For higher peak current density, the surface morphology was smoother. The crystal orientation progressively changed from an almost random distribution to a strong (111) texture. This means that the peak current density was the dominated parameter to effect the microstructure of electrodeposited nanocrystalline nickel coating. In addition, the lattice parameter for the deposited nickel is calculated from XRD and it is found that the calculated value is less than the lattice parameter for the perfect nickel single crystal. This phenomenon is explained by the crystal lattice mismatch.

For the first time, pyromilling synthesis for production of nanocrystalline titanium carbide was presented in this research. Raw materials containing stoichiometric ratio of titanium and carbon were milled and heated simultaneously. Samplings were done at different times. Then, phase transformation, crystallite size and strain of samples were estimated by XRD technique. Microstructures of milled samples were studied by SEM and TEM. Results showed that by increasing temperature, milling time for synthesizing of titanium carbide was reduced. Crystallite size of milled samples were in nanometer scale which were reduced by increasing of milling time and decreasing of temperature while strain was intensified. Existence of created strain changed lattice parameter of synthesized titanium carbide from standard value.

A nanostructured disordered Fe(Al) solid solution was obtained from elemental powders of Fe and Al using a high-energy ball mill. The transformations occurring in the material during milling were studied with the use of X-ray diffraction. In addition lattice microstrain, average crystallite size, dislocation density, and the lattice parameter were determined. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was employed to examine the morphology of the samples as a function of milling times. Thermal behaviour of the milled powders was examined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The results, as well as dissimilarity between calorimetric curves of the powders after 2 and 20 h of milling, indicated the formation of a nanostructured Fe(Al) solid solution.
