Electrical properties and magnetoresistance have been studied in two series of xAg-La0.67（Ca0.65Ba0.35）0.33MnO3 and xPd-La0.67（Ca0.65Ba0.35）0.33MnO3 （abbreviated by xAg-LCBMO and xPd-LCBMO） composites.

Both Pd and Ag addition induce a decrease in resistivity and an increase in temperature at which the resistivity reaches its maximum. This is mainly due to the improvement of grain boundaries caused by the segregation of good conductive metal grains on the grain boundaries/surfaces. In addition, both Pd and Ag addition induce a large enhancement of room temperature magnetoresistance （RTMR）. Note that 27% molar ratio of Ag addition induces a large RTMR of about 70%, about ten times larger than pure LCBMO, whereas 27% molar ratio Pd addition brings a much larger RTMR of about 170%. The large enhancements of MR can be attributed to the decrease in resistivity of the samples caused by the good conductive metal. On the other hand, the polarization of Pd atoms near the Mn ions on the grain surfaces/boundaries plays a very im-portant role in the increase in MR, which induces a large number of spin clusters in Pd-added samples.展开更多

The effects of Cr doping in LiNi0.5Mn1.5O4 on the structures and electrochemical properties were investigated. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffractometry （XRD）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, cyclic voltammetry （CV）, galvanostatic charge-discharge test and electrochemical impedance spectrum （EIS）. The results indicate that the LiCr2 Ni0.5 Mn1.5 O possess a spinel structure and small particle size, and LiCr0.2Ni0.4Mn1.4O4exhibits Y -Y -Y 4 the best cyclic and rate performance. It can deliver discharge capacities of 143 and 104 mA·h/g at 1C and 10C, respectively, with good capacity retention of 96.5% at 1C after 50 cycles.展开更多

The catalysts were characterized by means of the powder X-ray diffraction and N2 adsorption-desorption, the inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry, the temperature programmed reduction, diffuse reflectance UV-Vis spectra, and the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. It was found that after doping little amount of Ce in copper manganese oxide, CeO2 phase was highly dispersed and could prevent sintering and aggregating of the catalyst, the size of the catalytic material was decreased, the reducibility was enhanced, the specific surface area was increased and the formation of the active sites for the oxidation of CO was improved significantly. Therefore, the activity of the rare earth promoted catalyst was enhanced remarkably.展开更多

The impact of the lattice strain on the charge/orbital ordering state was studied by using a heterostructure composed with elec- tron-doped La0.9Hf0.1MnO3 （LHMO） and ferro- and piezoelectric 0.67Pb（Mgl/3Nb2/3）O3-0...The impact of the lattice strain on the charge/orbital ordering state was studied by using a heterostructure composed with elec- tron-doped La0.9Hf0.1MnO3 （LHMO） and ferro- and piezoelectric 0.67Pb（Mgl/3Nb2/3）O3-0.33PbTiO3. The ferroelectric poling induces a significant reduction in the biaxial tensile strain in the LHMO film, leading to a decrease in the film resistance over the whole temperature range and an increase in the insulator to metal transition temperature TIM. The resistance of LHMO film exhibits different responses to the external electric fields and lattice deformation, which is attributed to the coactions of con- verse piezoelectric effect and ferroelectric polarity effect. The modification of charge/orbital ordering phase by the electric fields and ferroelectric polarization suggests that the unstable states in the manganites are sensitive to strain effects.展开更多
