Semiconductor SrTiO_3-based voltage-sensing and dielectric dual functional ceramics was prepared by a single step sintering technology in this study, and the effects of the content of La_2O_3 on characteristics of the product were discussed in terms of microstructures and electrical properties of materials. The results show that SrTiO_3-based ceramics doped with La_2O_3 exhibits more homogeneous grain distribution, greater grain size, and excellent voltage sensing and dielectric characteristics than those without La_2O_3 doping. The samples doped with 1 1% La_2O_3 were sintered at 1420 ℃ in N_2+C weak reducing atmosphere. The average grain size of the samples doped with La_2O_3 is 40 μm, the breakdown voltage of 19.7 V·mm^(-1), the nonlinear exponent of 7.2, and dielectric constant of 22500. The results reveal that final products are suitable to use in low operating voltage.展开更多

The emissions spectra of Eu2+ and Eu3+ were observed in BaO-La2O3-B2O3-Eu2O3 glasses. The results show that the broad emission peaks at 430 nm correspond to 5d→4f emission transition of Eu2+, the sharp emission peaks at 592, 616, 650 and 750 nm correspond to 5D0→7Fj（j=1-4） emission transition of Eu3+, respectively, which indicates that the BaO-La2O3-B2O3-Eu2O3 glass can convert ultraviolet and green components of sunlight into blue and red light so as to increase the intensity of blue and red light, respectively. The luminescent intensity of Eu2+ increases with increasing the molar ratio of Tb3+ in BaO-La2O3-B2O3-Eu2O3-Tb4O7 glasses, whereas the luminescent intensity of Eu3+ decreases. So the luminescent intensity of Eu（III, II） is influenced by Tb3+. These phenomena can be explained by electron transfer mechanism: Eu3+（4f6）+Tb3+（4f8）→Eu2+（4f7）+Tb4+（4f7）. Taking advantage of the luminescent properties of BaO-La2O3-B2O3-Eu2O3 glasses, light-conversion glass for agriculture can be produced.展开更多

By heating the catalyst at a constant rate from 150-300℃, temperature fluctuations due to non-equilibrium adsorption are minimized. The evolved gas profiles show that ODH to isobutene and water is a primary reaction pathway, while carbon dioxide, which forms from the catalyst during reaction, is the only other product. This CO2 evolution may enhance the activity of the catalyst. Isobutene formation proceeds with the participation of lattice oxygen from the Cr2O3/La2(CO3)3 catalyst. The intrinsic Arrhenius rate constant for the ODH of isobutane isk(s-1) = 1011.5±2.2exp{-((55±5) -ΔHads kJmol-1)/RT}The small pre-exponential factor is expected for a concerted mechanism and for such a catalyst with a small surface area and limited porosity.展开更多

The result of oxidation in air at 1273 K for 20 h shows that the oxidation rate of NiAl-La2O3 coating is remarkably lower than that of NiAl-La2O3 free coating. The oxide film surface morphology of NiAl-La2O3 composite coating was obviously modified after oxidation. HREM study of the fine structure of aluminum oxide on the composite coating shows that La2O3 particles with diameter of 10￣40 nm were incorporated into u-Al2O3 layer. It is believed that La2O3 dispersive particles improve NiAl coating oxidation resistance by a way to influence aluminum layer microstructure and to modify cationic transfer behavior of the layer growth.展开更多

The results indicate that. differences of thermal expansion coefficients of the coatings applied on the two sides of the bending sample can be analyzed by detecting the deflection behaviour of the sample, the growth stress in La2O3 added x-Al2O3 coating is reduced by some 350 kgf/ mm2 for 50 h isothermal oxidation at 900℃ . and the mechanism is that the grain size of scale is reduced due to addition of La2O3 and its plasticity is increased, the magnitude of thermal expansion coefficients of coatings influences the thermal stress developing during cooling. Stress in the scale on simple NiAl is relieved mainly in way of cracking and spalling of the scale at temperature 400￣ 600℃ ,but that on La2O3-added coating is relieved slightly due to good integrity and adherence of the scale.展开更多
