The present study investigates the influence of Mg doping on the H2 sensing properties of ZnO films fabricated with ITO seed layer by spray pyrolysis method. XRD results revealed that both undoped and Mg doped ZnO films were polycrystalline with a hexagonal wurtzite structure with highly oriented (002) plane perpendicular to the ITO substrate. The films were highly transparent in the visible range...... hiện toàn bộ
Low temperature sintering and microwave dielectric properties of BaO–0.6ZnO–2.9TiO2 ceramics using BaCu(B2O5) additionJournal of Materials Science: Materials in Electronics - Tập 26 - Trang 8819-8823 - 2015

In this paper, the effect of BaCu(B2O5) addition on the sintering process, phase composition, microstructure and microwave dielectric properties of BaO–0.6ZnO–2.9TiO2 ceramics were investigated by the conventional solid-state reaction technique. It was suggested that the liquid phase of BaCu(B2O5) was responsible for the densification of the BaO–0.6ZnO–2.9TiO2 ceramics at approximate 900 °C. Using...... hiện toàn bộ

Facile synthesis of Cu2O/TiO2 (P25) composites with enhanced photocatalytic H2 evolution activityJournal of Materials Science: Materials in Electronics - Tập 32 - Trang 18900-18911 - 2021
Jun-Li Chen, Shi-Yu Xie, Li-Juan Yue, Fei-Long Gong, Yong-Hui Zhang
Hydrogen (H2) produced by photocatalytic water splitting on semiconductor is a prospective way to make full use of solar energy. Here, we synthesized a composite consisting of P25 nanoparticles combined with open hollow sphere cuprous oxide (Cu2O) through a simple one-pot hydrothermal method. Cu2O/TiO2 (P25) (60 wt%, labeled as CP-60) exhibited the highest H2 evolution rate as high as 2.55 mmol g−...... hiện toàn bộ
Development of Ba0.95Sr0.05(Fe0.5Nb0.5)O3/poly(vinylidene fluoride) nanocomposites for energy storageJournal of Materials Science: Materials in Electronics - Tập 26 - Trang 4165-4171 - 2015

To obtain high energy density with low dielectric loss, we synthesized polymer/ceramic composite by incorporating the giant dielectric constant material [Ba0.95Sr0.05(Fe0.5Nb0.5)O3] in a poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) polymer matrix. X-ray diffraction analysis confirmed the single phase monoclinic structure in all the composite samples. Microstructural analysis indicates that the Ba0.95Sr0.05(Fe...... hiện toàn bộ
Multi-layer ZnO assembled microspheres, microstars and microflowers with high photocatalytic performanceJournal of Materials Science: Materials in Electronics - Tập 28 - Trang 7778-7783 - 2017

Hierarchical ZnO microspheres, microstars and microflowers were synthesized via hydrothermal process. After calcination, the zinc nitrate and urea reacted and formed into microspheres. Addition of sucrose made the consisting layers with porosity and assembled to microstars. Surfactant trisodium citrate further altered the hierarchical structure to microflowers. The phase structure, surface morphol...... hiện toàn bộ
Study of ultrafine grains formed on the microsized catalyst surface induced growth of aligned SiO2 nanowiresJournal of Materials Science: Materials in Electronics - Tập 24 - Trang 3805-3811 - 2013

In this study, beard-like and sea cucumber-like silica structures have been successfully synthesized on the Si substrate by a novel and simple water assisted method. The investigation of SEM and TEM reveals that the as-grown products possess many similar features like that they all have a very big, nearly spherical microsized body and uncountable, high density and highly oriented silica nanowire a...... hiện toàn bộ
Growth of thick MOD-derived CeO2−x buffer layer with less residual carbon for coated conductorsJournal of Materials Science: Materials in Electronics - Tập 26 - Trang 8949-8953 - 2015

120 nm thick CeO2−x buffer layer with less residual carbon has been prepared on biaxially textured NiW substrate using a newly developed heat-treatment route by a metal organic deposition approach. The thickness enhancement of CeO2−x buffer layer was achieved by multiple coatings. The residual carbon removal in CeO2−x buffer layer was realized by introducing CO2 into annealing atmosphere at the po...... hiện toàn bộ
