Thermogravimetric analysis was utilized to monitor the decomposition and phase evolution of BNKT powders in the calcination temperature (<i>T</i>_cal) range of 600–800 °C. The BNKT powder with a single perovskite crystal phase was obtained by calcining xerogel for 1 h at <i>T</i>_cal = 800 °C. This result was also confirmed by X-ray diffraction and Raman scattering analyses and further explained through the main chemical reaction equations given at each calcination stage of the sol-gel process. In addition, the modification of associated physical properties (microstructure, magnetic, and optical properties) in BNKT powders was also investigated following the structural phase evolution induced by the calcination condition. Furthermore, a single-phase BNKT powder at <i>T</i>_cal = 800 °C was optimal for fabricating bulk ceramics. By sintering the pellets of an optimized powder at 1100 °C for 2 h, the obtained BNKT bulk ceramics showed a dense microstructure with an average grain size of about 1.75 μm. Interestingly, the BNKT bulk ceramics exhibited a high dielectric constant (<i>ε</i>_r) of 2193.4 with a dielectric loss tangent (tan<i>δ</i>) of 0.334 at 1 kHz, room temperature (RT). These findings indicate that optimizing the calcination temperature during the sol–gel process leads to fundamental improvements in the dielectric behavior of bulk BNKT ceramics, providing a promising basis for future studies aimed at enhancing their performance in potential dielectric capacitor applications.</p><h3>Graphical abstract</h3><div><figure><div><div><picture><source><img></source></picture></div></div></figure></div></div>","PeriodicalId":625,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Electroceramics","volume":"54 1","pages":"32 - 47"},"PeriodicalIF":2.7,"publicationDate":"2025-07-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148909433","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The sensitivity of the sensors was improved by varying the content of NH₄F to regulate the morphology. When the content of NH₄F is 6 mmol, the sensitive Fe₂O₃ electrode presents a spherical nanoscale microstructure with better porosity and dispersibility. Consequently, the sensor with such an electrode delivers a superior response of -10 mV to 10 ppm NO. The polarization curve also demonstrates that the sensitive electrode material has the highest electrochemical catalytic ability for NO. Meanwhile, the NO sensor has a wide detection range of 1–100 ppm, with a sensitivity of -15 mV/decade for 1–100 ppm NO. The low detection limit of the fabricated NO sensor could reach 1 ppm, and the response is -1.5 mV. In addition, the response and recovery times for 1−100 ppm NO were less than 35 s, indicating excellent response and recovery properties. The response to other interfering gases did not exceed that to NO, indicating good selectivity for NO. The device also has acceptable humidity resistance and excellent long-term stability during continuous measurements over 25 days.

Magnetorheological (MR) materials can be rapidly and reversibly tuned by applying a magnetic field, leveraging their viscoelastic and mechanical properties. Unlike MR fluids, which are prone to issues like oil contamination and particle sedimentation, MREs offer a solid alternative that mitigates these drawbacks. This solid-state advantage opens up numerous possibilities for creating intelligent devices across various technical domains, including vibration isolation, vibration reduction, and shock absorption. Because of these benefits, recent studies have investigated the incorporation of MREs into energy harvesting systems like piezoelectric materials.

This study introduces a novel mixed ion-conducting fuel cell (MIFC) design for internal steam generating in the anode side of PCFC. The MIFC was fabricated with BaZr_0.1Ce_0.7Y_0.1Yb_0.1O_3-δ (BZCYYb) as a proton conductor and Sm_0.2Ce_0.8O_2-δ (SDC) as an oxide ion conductor via dip-coating leveraging the shrinkage difference and coating slurry viscosities. The layered structure of the MIFC significantly improved maximum power densities of 0.40 W cm^-2 for hydrogen and 0.20 W cm^-2 for methane at 600 ^oC. The layered MIFC also achieved highly table performance at long-term methane reforming at 0.1 A cm^-2 for 50 h.

In this paper, a mesoscopic to-macroscopic scale phase-field modeling of dielectric breakdown is constructed, and simulations are carried out to investigate the influence of non-homogeneous factors; such as ceramic grain size, crystallinity, and electrode spacing; on their local electric field distributions, breakdown behaviors, and energy storage densities.

Moderate heat treatment increases grain size, reduces grain boundary defects, and enhances breakdown field strength and energy storage density. However, excessive grain growth introduces new defects, resulting in the opposite effect. As MLCCs develop in the direction of thin films, the electrode spacing is also reduced; Although this reduces the breakdown field strength, it can enhance the energy storage density by utilizing the multilayer structure.
