It is found that proper amount of Ho2O3 can refine grains of the system. With the increase of Ho2O3 doping content, the average grain size of (Ba0.75Sr0.25) TiO3 ceramics decreases. When Ho2O3>8 wt%, (Ba0.75Sr0.25) TiO3 based ceramic samples are multi-phase compounds with typical perovskite structure accompanied by the appearance of cylindrical grains. The Ho3+ ions substitute the host A sites and B sites of (Ba0.75Sr0.25) TiO3 perovskite lattice, resulting in the lattice distortion of the system and the change of the relative dielectric constant and dielectric loss at room temperature. With the increase of Ho2O2 doping content, the relative dielectric constant at room temperature of the system increases first and then decreases. The maximum of relative dielectric constant at room temperature can be found in the 1 wt% Ho2O3 doped (Ba0.75Sr0.25) TiO3 ceramics. When Ho2O3＞1 wt%, the maximum of relative dielectric constant ermax decreases and the temperature corresponding to the maximum of relative dielectric constant Tm shifts toward lower temperature with the increase of Ho2O3 doping content. The (Ba0.75Sr0.25) TiO3 ceramics with high Ho2O3 content show relaxor-like behavior which is characterized by the typical diffuse phase transition and frequency dispersion of dielectric constant. However, the (Ba0.75Sr0.25) TiO3 ceramics with low Ho2O3 content do not exhibit permittivity frequency dispersion. According to the P-E hysteresis loops of Ho2O3 doped (Ba0.75Sr0.25) TiO3 ceramics, the ferroelectricity was increased and then decreased with the increase of Ho2O3 doping content. With the increase of Ho2O3 doping content, the P-E relationships turn out to be straight lines, implying the paraelectric phase for (Ba0.75Sr0.25) TiO3 ceramics with high Ho2O3 content.","PeriodicalId":14116,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Materials Science and Applications","volume":"106 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77212918","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two technological approaches of such structures obtaining are considered. The first is a nanopowders compaction under high (up to 5GPa) hydrostatic compression, on example of a Ni nanopowder (70nm). The second is the Al and Pb crystallization under the high-intensity plastic deformation [e¢ = (102-104) sec-1] (НIPD) conditions on the \"solid-liquid\" boundary in the centrifugal casting machine with rotary speed up to 2000 rpm. Using the method of atomic force microscopy (AFM), vacancy cluster tubes (VCT) with average diameters of 39 nm for Al and 25 nm for Pb have been detected in the crystallized volume of Al and Pb metals. Discussed the physical model of a new substructure formation within the metals in the form of vacancy cluster tubes, obtained in the process of high-intensive plastic deformation (HIPD) during the process of mass crystallization of Al and Pb and the changes in the mechanical, magnetic and superconducting properties of the above metals, which followed this process. During Al and Pb crystallization under high-intensive plastic deformation (HIPD) range about [e′ = (102–104) sec-1] with specially selected modes of metals crystallization in high-speed centrifugal casting machine the special conditions are being created to achieve the dimensional effect of dynamic (shifting) re-crystallization. Shifting deformation during centrifugal crystallization caused primarily by a large incline of the temperature field from the periphery (relative to the cold wall of the rotor) to the molten central part of the rotor. The difference in the angular velocities of the already-frozen part of the metal (adjacent to the outer surface of the rotor wall) and the central part, where the metal still remains in the molten state, leads to a high-intensity deformation [e′ = (102–104) sec-1] of the crystallized metal melt solidified phase. Since the grain sizes at the crystallized phase initially comprise around tens of nano-meters (approximately crystal nucleation size), it becomes possible to achieve the dimensional effect of the dynamic re-crystallization of a «nanocrystalline» solidified metal at high shift of strain velocities. The ≪non-equilibrium vacancies≫ formed this way condense into vacancy clusters, which are formed in the centrifugal force field in the form of vacancy-shaped cluster tubes stretched out to the center of rotation of the rotor. The process proceeds under conditions far from the equilibrium in comparison with the usual crystallization of the metal from the melt. Such processes can lead to the formation of highly ordered non-equilibrium statescharacteristic of non-equilibrium open systems.

The refractive index (RI) is varied owing to the adsorption of different concentration of biomolecules.  Result states that the sensitivity with a monolayer of graphene will be improved up to 40% than bare graphene layer. Owing to increased adsorption capability of DNA molecules on graphene, sensitivity increases compared to the conventional gold thin film SPR biosensor.

This work is done by using the reported data of Sedky, Physica B 410, 227 (2013), and with the help of Anderson and Zou relation. The logarithmic plots of excess conductivity ∆σ and reduced temperature Є reveal two different exponents corresponding to unique crossover temperature in the slope of each plot. The first exponent is obtained in the normal field region at a temperature of ( << T < 2 ), while the second exponent is obtained in the mean field region at a temperature of (T ~ ). The dimensional exponents are shifted from three dimensional (3D) to two dimensional (2D) for x < 0.30, but it is shifted from 2D to 3D for x = 0.50. Both zero kelvin critical magnetic fields and current density are considerably enhanced by increasing x up to 0.30 followed by a decrease with further increase of x up to 0.50. The vice is versa for the behavior of interlayer coupling, coherence lengths and anisotropy against x. On the other hand, IR spectra show absorption modes in the wave number range of 716-726 cm-1 according to the value of x.

The XRD patterns show the cubic spinel structure of the material. The lattice constant along with other associated structural parameters are found to increase but the particle size to decrease with the milling time. The positive value of real part of permeability is found to increase with the increase of frequency for the sample of milling time 8h. But for the sample of milling time 12h, its negative value is observed below 2 kHz and after onwards it becomes positive. This negative value of real part is the signature of diamagnetic behavior at the low frequency regime, which is assumed to originate due to the dominance of antiferromagnetic effect of Mn2+ ions on the B site. The diamagnetic behavior may make this material suitable to be used in electromagnetic suppression or shielding devices. The real part e' of permittivity demonstrates the normal behavior for both the sample of milling time 8h and 12h below 2 kHz and 0.1 MHz respectively. The peaks at 8MHz for the sample of milling time 8h and at 1MHz for the sample of milling time 12h in the dispersion of its imaginary part e'' indicate the resonance condition for the respective sample at the higher frequency regime, which is assumed to be originated from the faster hoping of electrons between Fe2+ and Fe3+ in the B site. At the low frequency regime, the a.c resistivity decreases almost exponentially with the increase of frequency to a certain minimum value at 10 kHz and 1 kHz for the samples of milling time 8h and 12h respectively and after onwards it becomes almost independent of frequency. The structural correlation is analyzed with the Col-Cole plot where the single incomplete semicircle corresponds to the grain boundary resistance for 12h milled sample and double incomplete semicircles to both the grain boundary and grain resistances for 8h milled sample. Almost constant characteristic impedance implies that both the permeability and permittivity are of equal value for the sample of milling time 12h and its nearer-to-zero value of eddy current loss may make this material suitable to be used in the design of microstrip/patch antenna. However the linear variation of characteristic impedance with the frequency for the sample of milling time 8h implies the tuning effect of multilayer capacitance, which may make this sample to be integrated as tuner with the microstrip/patch antenna.","PeriodicalId":14116,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Materials Science and Applications","volume":"113 3 1","pages":"199"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-01-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73426306","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
