The iron films were sulfurized at 673 K for 20 h to form pyrite films. The structural and electrical characters were determined. High substrate temperatures produce large crystallites in the precursive iron films. The pyrite films are composed of a surface layer with coarse columnar grains and a bottom layer with fine equiaxed grains. With the increase of iron grain scale, the carrier concentration decreases and the carrier mobility increases. The electrical resistivity of the pyrite films increases to a maximum in the precursive iron films with increasing the grain size to about 3g nm. Sufficient formation and growth of iron grains result in improved crystallinity and high continuity of the pyrite films. The crystal defect density, transformation stress level and atom diffusion behavior are responsible for the characteristics of the electrical properties dependent on the crystallinity and continuity of the pyrite films or the crystallizing status of the precursive iron films.展开更多

The chemical formula of the sample is Ce4Fe2Ti3Si4O22. The crystals are monoclinic with the unit cell parameters a = 13.4656(15) ?, b = 5.7356(6) ?, c = 11.0977(12) ?, β= 100.636(2)o, V = 842.39 (16) ?3 and Z = 2. The structures of Ti- and Fe2+-rich chevkinite-(Ce) were refined with space groups P21/a and C2/m. Least-squares refinement results show that both structural models of Ti- and Fe2+-rich chevkinite-(Ce) are very good, R[F2>2σ(F2)] =0.027 with P21/a and R[F2>2σ(F2)] =0.021 with C2/m. In order to illustrate the relationship between the two space groups P21/a and C2/m, the distribution of diffraction intensities was inspected. Pseudo extinction was found, i.e., reflections with h+k=2n are systematically strong, while those with h+k=2n+1 are weak. By neglecting the systematically weak (h+k=2n+1) reflections the space group becomes C2/m. There is a mirror plane in the C2/m perpendicular to the b axis. However, oxygen atoms in the P21/a model are of a symmetrical relationship with the corresponding pseudo mirror plane. It is concluded that the crystal structure of non-metamict Ti- and Fe2+-rich chevkinite-(Ce) is a superstructure with the space group of P21/a, which is of pseudo symmetry corresponding to the space group C2/m.展开更多

High diffraction efficiency and large recording sensitivity are observed and explained. The decrease in Li vacancies is suggested to be the main contributor to the increase in the photoconductivity and subsequently to the induction of the improvement of recording sensitivity. The saturation diffraction efficiency is measured up to 80.2%, and simultaneously the recording sensitivity of 0.91 cm/J is achieved to in the Hf:Fe:LiNbO3 crystal grown from the melt with the [Li]/[Nb] ratio of 1.20, which is significantly enhanced as compared with those of the Hf:Fe:LiNbO3 crystal with the [Li]/[Nb] ratio of 0.94 in melt under the same experimental conditions. Experimental results definitely show that increasing the [Li]/[Nb] ratio in crystal is an effective method'for Hf:Fe:LiNbO3 crystal to improve its photorefractive properties.展开更多

Their infrared transmission spectra are mea- sured and discussed to investigate the defect structure. With the increase of Mg2+ concentration the blue nonvolatile holographic storage capability is enhanced. The nonvolatile holographic storage properties of dual-wavelength recording of Mg(7 mol%):Ru:Fe:LiNbO3 nonvolatile diffraction efficiency, response time, and nonvolatile sensitivity reach 59.8%, 70 s, and 1.04 cm/J, respectively. Comparing Mg(7 mol%):Ru:Fe:LiNbO3 with Ru:Fe:LiNbO3 crystal, the response time is shortened apparently. The nonvolatile diffraction efficiency and sensitivity are raised largely. The mechanism in blue photorefractive nonvolatile holographic storage is discussed.展开更多

In this paper, KDP crystals were grown from an aqueous solution doped with different concentration of Fe^3+ dopant by traditional temperaturereduction method and "point-seed" rapid growth method. Furthermore, we examined the light scatter and measured the transmission of these KDP crystals. It is found that the dopant of Fe^3+ ion can improve the stability of the KDP growth solution when its concentration is less than 30 ppm. The effects of Fe^3+ ion on the growth habit and optical properties of KDP crystal are also obvious.展开更多

It crystallizes in triclinic, space group P1, with a = 11.827(1), b = 16.000(2), c = 16.527(2)A, α = 108.510(1), β = 91.116(5), γ = 101.734(1)°, V = 2894.5(6) A3, Z = 1, Dc = 1.262 g/m^3, F(000) = 1162, Μr = 545.63, μ = 0.083 mm-1, the final R = 0.0728 and w R = 0.2213 for 7541 observed reflections with I 〉 2(I). The structural analysis revealed that three pyrazole units are attached to the same carbon atom connected with bis-(4-ethoxy-phenyl)-phenyl-amine group. UV-vis spectral features of the ligand in various solutions were explained by time dependent density functional theory(TD-DFT). It was also found that the ligand(BTA) exhibits an exclusively selective and sensitive response toward Fe3+ using UV-vis spectroscopic method.展开更多

XRD results indicate that the isothermal incubation time is 12, 5, and less than 5 min at 670, 700, and 730°C, respectively. High coercivities, with the maximum value of iHc = 1616 kA/m at 700°C for 19 min, measured by a physical property measurement system, are obtained in the crystallized ribbons. This is mainly attributed to the addition of Pr and Nb, because Pr2Fe14B has a higher anisotropic field than Nd2Fe14B, and Nb enriched in the grain boundary regions can not only reduce the exchange-coupling effects among hard grains, but also impede grain growth during the crystallization process. In addition, it should also be related to the characteristics of the furnace that the authors designed.展开更多

It was found that for Pr 8Fe 86- x Zr x B 6 ( x =0, 1, 2) amorphous alloys, the final crystallized mixture is α Fe and Pr 2Fe 14 B, and the metastable Pr 2Fe 23 B 3 phase occurs during crystallization of Pr 8Fe 86 B 6 amorphous alloy, not during crystallization of Pr 8Fe 86- x Zr x B 6( x =1, 2) amorphous alloys. By analyzing the activation energy of crystallization, the formation of an α Fe/Pr 2Fe 14 B composite microstructure with a coarse grain size in annealed Pr 8Fe 86 B 6 alloy, is attributed to a difficult nucleation and an easy growth for both the α Fe and Pr 2Fe 14 B in the alloy. The addition of Zr can be used to change the crystallization behavior of the α Fe phase in Pr Fe B amorphous alloy, which is helpful to reduce the grain size for the α Fe phase.展开更多
