The influences of carbon content on the synthesis conditions of coesite were investigated. The experimental products were characterized by XRD, TEM, and Raman spectrometry. The results show that the existence of carbon can obviously inhibit the formation of coesite, and the higher the carbon content of the initial material, the higher the pressure for forming coesite.展开更多

Appropriate amount of MgO adding can restrict the agglomeration and reduce the particle size of Yb:YAG powders. When the MgO content was 0.04wt%, well-dispersed Yb:YAG powders with ellipsoidal particles of less than 100 nm diameter were obtained. The experimental results showed the valence variation of doping ion Yb〉 would not appear when adding MgO as sintering additives, so ceramics showed colorless transparent instead of green due to Yb^2+ color center using traditional SiO2 as additives. The transmission of the sintered Yb:YAG ceramics can reach 80.6% even without annealing. Ceramic morphology showed that the grains had uniform-distribution with the size of 10 iam or so, and no impurity and pore existed in the grain boundary and crystalline while using optimal sintering conditions.展开更多

In this work, K2CO3 and MoOs were used as starting materials and reacted by hot isostatic pressing (HIP) sintering. The product is nearly single phase K0.3MoO3 determined by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). Measurement of temperature dependence of resistivity reveals that the transport property of polycrystalline K0.3MoO3 obviously differs from that of single crystal due to the grain boundaries and the anisotropic structure in this kind of compound.展开更多

When the quantum dot levels are aligned with the Fermi level, there only appear spin polarization in thisstructure by the presence of an appropriate magnetic flux. However, in absence of magnetic flux spin polarization andspin separation can be simultaneously realized with the adjustment of quantum dot levels, namely, an incident electronfrom one terminal can select a specific terminal to depart from the quantum dots according to its spin state.展开更多

Results from both the X-ray diffraction and the scanning electron microscopy show that the lattice distortions of the PbWO4 microcrystals are reduced significantly when the annealing temperature is increased to 873 K. The result from the ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy shows that the exciton absorption appears in the sample annealed at 673 K. The self-trapped exciton luminescence due to the Jahn- Teller effect is also observed in the blue band. The interstitial oxygen ions in the WO42- groups are mainly resposible for the enhancement effect of the green luminescence of the annealed samples. The above results are supported by the spectrum analysis of the as-grown and the post-annealed samples using the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.展开更多

By Ni-doping, not only the grain size reduces, but also the grain shape changes from nano-rods to spherical particles. The crystallization becomes better with annealing temperature increasing. The band gap energy decreases as nickel doping level increases. The sp-d hybridization and alloying effect due to amorphous SnO2-x phase should be responsible for the band gap narrowing effect. Nickel dopant does not change the photoluminescence (PL) peak positions.展开更多
