Structural properties of Cd1−xCuxCr2O4(CCCO) have been investigated by means of X-ray powder diffraction and Rietveld analysis. A structural phase transformation from Fd3m to I42d at x=0.64 has been detected. The lattice constant a of the cubic unit cell decreases rapidly with increasing Cu content up to x=0.62. At x=0.64, the cubic unit cell is compressed into a tetragonal cell and CrO6 octahedrons are distorted. With continuing Cu content increases above 0.64, the distortion of the unit cell is released slightly according to the changes in c/a. Magnetic properties of Cd1−xCuxCr2O4(x=0.1,0.3,0.5,0.7) have also been measured and are discussed.

Detailed structural properties of La1−xBaxCoO3 (LBCO) have been investigated by means of X-ray powder diffraction and Rietveld analysis. A structural phase transformation from R3c to Pm3m at x=0.30–0.35 has been detected based on a comparison between the refinements of R3c and Pm3m. The Co–O bond length of the CoO6 octahedron expanded rapidly with increasing Ba content when x<0.1, and then it leveled off and kept constant at 0.1⩽x⩾0.35, where the Co–O–Co bond angle reaches 180°. The Co–O bond length expansion resumed with increasing Ba content beyond x=0.35.

Single-phase samples of La1−xCaxMnO3compounds have been synthesized by solid-state reaction. Detailed Rietveld analysis of powder X-ray diffraction data showed that La1−xCaxMnO3undergoes a structural phase transformation fromR-3ctoPnmaatX=0.05–0.075. There is a linear variation of lattice parameters as a function of calcium concentration. The slope of this linear variation changes atX=0.6. A correlation between observed Mn-O bond lengths, corresponding to different compositions, and possible magnetic phases is discussed.

Intermetallic compounds of Dy2Fe16Ga1−xNbx (x = 0.0 to 1.00) were synthesized by arc melting. Samples were investigated for structural, magnetic, and hyperfine properties using X-ray diffraction, vibration sample magnetometer, and Mossbauer spectrometer, respectively. The Rietveld analysis of room temperature X-ray diffraction data shows that all the samples were crystallized in Th2Fe17 structure. The unit cell volume of alloys increased linearly with an increase in Nb content. The maximum Curie temperature Tc ~523 K for x = 0.6 sample is higher than Tc = 153 K of Dy2Fe17. The saturation magnetization decreased linearly with increasing Nb content from 61.57 emu/g for x = 0.0 to 42.46 emu/g for x = 1.0. The Mössbauer spectra and Rietveld analysis showed a small amount of DyFe3 and NbFe2 secondary phases at x = 1.0. The hyperfine field of Dy2Fe16Ga1−xNbx decreased while the isomer shift values increased with the Nb content. The observed increase in isomer shift may have resulted from the decrease in s electron density due to the unit cell volume expansion. The substantial increase in Tc of thus prepared intermetallic compounds is expected to have implications in magnets used for high-temperature applications.

The new heteropoly blue compound (MoO2)0.5PMo14O42, which is relevant in the context of catalytic activity of heteropoly-molybdates, was prepared by controlled thermolysis of (NH4)3PMo12O40 at 730 K in a nitrogen atmosphere. Powder X-ray diffraction analysis showed that this compound has a cubic unit cell, space group Pn3m (No. 224), with ao=11.795(2) Å, Z=2 and DXR=4.2466 g cm−3. Computer modeling and Rietveld analysis of powder diffraction patterns led to a proposed structure of the corresponding Keggin-cage unit PMo14O42.

ABSTRACTThe temperature induced structural transformations in physical mixtures of 1nm palladium and ultrafine (∼0.5nm) copper nanoparticles supported on carbon were studied using in-situ real time synchrotron based x-ray diffraction. These nanoparticles were subjected to two-step thermal annealing from 25°C to 700°C. The Pd and Cu nanoparticles were found to coalesce forming alloy nanoparticles that subsequently undergo a structural phase transformation from ordered B2 to disordered fcc. The random alloy formed at the end of the thermal treatments was found to be copper-rich.

Surface Chemical Reactions

The strength of ceramics or glasses can be increased by placing their surfaces into compression. Techniques include ion exchange, temperature glazing, surface chemical reactions and stress-induced phase transformations. Although most of these techniques are well recognized, little effort has been expended In experimentally determining the magnitude of the compressive stress, and in particular, to use experimental evidence to identify important material and process parameters that need to be controlled. The goal of this investigation was to determine some of the factors that effect the magnitude, profile and depth of the compressive layer introduced by a structural phase transformation. X-ray residual stress measurements were used to directly determine the state of the surface residual stress.

Three Phases

The crystalline semiconductor material (MnPS3) has interlayer d-spacing gap of 6.4 Å. The main advantage of this gap is the ability to accommodate organic and inorganic compounds. Pyridine was intercalated in the MnPS3 interlayer gap under specific conditions. Four phases (d-spacing = 12.48 Å, 10.8 Å, 9.7 Å and 7.3 Å) were observed and the corresponding lattice expansions were determined, 5.8 Å, 4.4 Å, 3.3 Å and 1 Å, respectively. X-ray diffraction patterns of the samples after the experiment were stopped to reveal the presence of three phases together. The phase transformation occurred for the aforementioned phases. The crystallite size of certain phases is within nanorange. The magnetic properties of the materials are affected by the phase transformation. Complete intercalation was confirmed by the XRD and infrared (IR) measurements.

Substitution Ratio

Pure and Sm substituted BiFeO3 nanoparticles were prepared by a coprecipitate method using Bi(NO3)3•5H2O and Fe(NO3)•9H2O as raw materials. X-ray diffraction pattern indicates that perovskite structural BiFeO3 can be obtained using 0.02 molar precursor precipitate by annealing at 550 °C. A structural phase transition deduced by Sm substitution was observed. SEM results showed that the size of BiFeO3 increases with annealing temperature and substitution ratio. DTA results showed that the phase transformation temperature decreases with Sm substitution ratio.
