The synthesis of non-lead piezoelectric ceramics (1–z)(0.65Bi1.05Fe2O3-0.35BaTiO3)-z Ba(Ti0.8Zr0.2)O3-(Ba0.7Ca0.3)TiO3 using a solid state method and a quenching strategy was investigated. The processing conditions such as the sintering temperature and soaking time were optimized. The patterns of X-ray diffraction (XRD) displayed a pure perovskite structure with no secondary phases. The ferroelectric and piezoelectric characteristics of the samples were considerably improved as a result of the lattice strain. The findings of the experiment revealed that the quenching technique increases the piezoelectric sensor constant of 152 pC/N in optimized conditions. The enhanced piezoelectric sensor constant (d33) value at z = 0.020 was ascribed to the incorporation of multi-cationic BCZT, which modified the bond lengths at a unit cell level and gave rise to more flexibility in complex domain switching. This facilitated easier domain alignment in response to the applied field and resulted in an improvement in the electrical properties.

Polycrystalline ( Bi 0.94-x Dy x Na 0.94)0.5 Ba 0.06 TiO 3 ceramics (x = 0, 0.04, and 0.08, designated as BNBT6, BNBT6: 4Dy and BNBT6: 8Dy, respectively) were prepared by conventional high temperature sintering method. The X-ray diffraction patterns show pure perovskite structure with no secondary phases. Lattice parameters and unit cell volumes have decreased due to Dy2O3 substitution. SEM micrographs revealed denser samples (ρrel > 97%) with uniformly distributed grain sizes. The room temperature piezoelectric properties of Dy2O3 substituted sample at x = 0.04 were relatively higher: d33 = 147 pC/N, k p = 28% and Q m = 128. The samples exhibited infinitesimal change in thickness (≈ 15 nm) to an applied voltage of 100 V, which could be utilized in actuator applications. Relaxor behavior and broad dielectric maxima with diffuse phase transition were observed. The value of RT dielectric constant has increased while dielectric loss was decreased due to Dy2O3 substitution. Conductivity in the materials obeys Jonscher's universal power law. The conductivity in the low frequency region is associated with short range translational hopping while it is associated with the reorientational hopping in the high frequency region. The charge carrier concentration term remained constant over the entire temperature range of (30–500°C).

La 0.7 Sr 0.3 MnO 3 powders have been synthesized at different temperatures by the traditional solid state method. The crystal structures have been characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The electromagnetic parameters were measured by vector network analyzer (VNA) within the frequency range of 5.85-18GHz. It’s found that the pure perovskite structure has been obtained at the temperature of 1000°C. The bandwidth for R<-6dB became thinner with the sintering temperature’s increase from 1000°C to 1150°C, and the absorbing peak moves to the higher frequency first and low frequency then, the absorbing peak is enhanced first and weakened then.

Behavioral characterization of radar absorbent material consisting of Polyaniline (PaNi) and Barium M-Hexaferrite (BaM) has been successfully synthesized by solid state method. Polyaniline conductive material was synthesized using the polymerization method with DBSA dopant. A Radar Absorbing Materials (RAM) is characterized by X-Ray Fluorescence (XRF), X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), Four Point Probe (FPP), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and Vector Network Analyzer (VNA). The ion Zn 2+ is dopping into the BAM structure, where Zn 2+ ions replace Fe2+ ions in Hexaferrite barium so that the phase becomes soft magnetic materials . RAM and PANi particles are combined with ship paint to form radar wave absorbent coatings. The layer is coated with multilayer geometry on AH 36 type A steel, with thicknesses of 2.4 mm, 3.6 mm, 4.8 mm and 6 mm respectively. The X-band wave absorption was identified by VNA testing, where the maximum reflection loss value was found at 6mm thickness with a reflection loss value - 32.6 dB at 8.4 GHz frequency. Reflection loss values of multilayer variations with a thickness of 2.4 mm, 3.6mm and 4.8mm each have reflection loss values of -8.02 dB, -19.13 dB and -28.9 dB respectively in the x band frequency range.


Bismuth layer-structured piezoelectric (BLSP) calcium bismuth titanate (Ca0.25Bi0.5TiO3) piezoelectric ceramics have been prepared via a conventional sol gel reaction method by mixing the desired chemicals in stoichiometric amounts. Calcium bismuth titanate (CBT) samples were characterized by means of XRD, SEM and FTIR spectroscopy. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis revealed that CBT ceramics exhibit a single phase orthorhombic structure. The SEM images confirm its morphological size ranging from 1.00 to 2.75 µm. FTIR analysis reveals that calcium bismuth titanate has been prepared successfully, and the ratio of calcium, bismuth and titania was found to be 0.25:0.50:1.00, respectively. The photocatalytic removal of Methylene Blue, cadmium (Cd2+) and other toxic heavy metals will be carried out using CBT materials.

A series of novel phosphates with the general formulas Ca9Gd0.9−xTm0.1Smx(PO4)7 and Ca9Gd0.9−yTmySm0.1(PO4)7 were synthesized by solid-state method. As-obtained phosphates were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction and second harmonic generation analyses, dielectric measurements, luminescence spectroscopy. All samples were single phase and characterized by the whitlockite-type structure with space group R3c. An influence of admixture concentration of REE3+ ions in the initial host on dielectric properties was studied in details. Synthesized phosphates are characterized by intensive luminescence. The emission in the orange region of the visible spectrum is observed for Ca9Gd0.9Sm0.1(PO4)7 with a maximum intensity band at 602 nm. The line in blue region at 455 nm, which corresponds to 1D2 → 3F4 Tm3+ transition, is registered for Ca9Gd0.9Tm0.1(PO4)7. Emission in the white region of CIE coordinates was registered for Tm-Sm co-doped compounds.

There is a substantial amount of literature dealing with many aspects of synthesis and characterization of pure and doped binary compounds including Mn-doped ZnO which has been widely studied due to its superb properties as a dilute magnetic semiconductor (DMS). Aspects concerning doping limits for these compounds is an important stage in the search for new materials. Samples of Zn1-xMnxO nanocrystal were synthesized at temperatures of 180 °C and 200 °C using wet or liquid phase synthesis method. Dopant concentrations x=0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 5, 10, 20, 30, 40 and 50 per cent were studied. Powder x-ray diffraction (PXRD) patterns of the samples were analyzed with a view to determining the onset of secondary phases and hence the solubility limit of the dopant. The solubility limit for Mn in ZnO samples synthesized at temperature of 200 °C is realized at x <20%. For samples synthesized at temperature of 180 °C, the solubility limit is x <0.5%.
