Electrical and optical properties of lithium borate glasses doped with Nd2O3

Glass series with general formula 25Li2O-(75-x)B2O3-xNd2O3 was prepared by conventional melt quench technique. Electrical and optical characterizations of these glasses were carried out. It was observed that conductivity of glasses decreased and activation energy increased with the addition of Nd2O3. The density and refractive index of the glasses increased while optical band gap and radiation length decreased due to structural changes.     

Properties and Application of Double Alkali Earth Doped Ce0.9Ca0. 1 - xSrxO1.90

A series of solid solution material based on ceria, Ceo.9Cao.l-xSrsOi.90(x = 0, 0.04, 0.05, 0.06), were synthesized by a solid reaction method. Ceria doped with two alkali earth dements has cubic fluorite structure. The ionic conductivity of these materials at high temperature was studied by impedance spectra, and an increasing effect of ionic conductivity was found. A maximum conductivity is achievedwhen the effective ionic radius is near to the critical radius (0. 1106 nm). Some fuel cells were made using these materials as electrolyte. The output power and current of the SOFC with the electrolyte of double doped ceria are better than those of YSZ and single doped ceria, and the open-circuit-voltage of the double doped ceria is also higher than that of the single doped ones.

Research on Calcium Doped Ceria Used in Intermediate-Temperature SOFCs Anodes

As a mixed ion-electronic conductor, doped ceria, especially rare earth doped ceria, were used as anodes or components of anodes in SOFCs. In this work, calcium doped ceria (CCO) was synthesized to be used in intermediate-temperature SOFCs (IT-SOFCs) anodes in order to reduce the cost of anode-supported SOFCs. Electrical conductivity of 20% calcium doped ceria (20CCO) reached 0.209 S·cm-1 in hydrogen at 850 ℃, and 0.041 S·cm-1 in air at 800 ℃, which is about 0.04 S·cm-1 lower than that of conventional samaria-doped ceria (0.079 S·cm-1). Electrochemical performance of Ni-20CCO cermet as anode was investigated using a fuel cell with 35 μm-thick SDC electrolyte and Sm0.5Sr0.5Co-SDC cathode. Maximum power density was 623 mW·cm-2 under humidified (3% H2O) hydrogen at 650 ℃, inferring high catalytic activity of the Ni-20CCO anode.     

Al2O3的掺杂浓度对Ce0．8Y0．2O1．9电解质的性能影响研究

利用低温燃烧合成法制备了Al2O3掺杂浓度为0.5%～10%(摩尔分数,以下同)的Al2O3/Ce0.8Y0.2O1.9固体电解质复合材料。研究了Al2O3掺杂浓度对Ce0.8Y0.2O1.9固体电解质烧结及电性能的影响。试验结果表明,添加少量的Al2O3可以改善Ce0.8Y0.2O1.9固体电解质的烧结性能,当Al2O3的添加量为0.5%时,电解质粉体具有最佳的烧结性能,1350℃时的相对密度达到99%以上。当Al2O3的掺杂浓度超过其在Ce0.8Y0.2O1.9中的溶解极限时,随Al2O3掺杂量的继续增加,烧结体的相对密度开始下降。阻抗谱结果表明,在溶解极限范围内,Al2O3使Ce0.8Y0.2O1.9的电导率减小,电导活化能增加。Al2O3的掺杂浓度超过溶解极限时,Ce0.8Y0.2O1.9的晶粒电阻不变,由于Al2O3对晶界的"清洁"作用,晶界电阻减小;当Al2O3的掺杂浓度超过5%时,由于Al2O3颗粒对晶界的"阻塞"作用,晶界电阻增加。

Electrical properties of iron doped apatite-type lanthanum silicates

The effect of Fe doping on the electrical properties of lanthanum silicates was investigated. The apatite-type lanthanum silicates La10Si6-xFexO27-x/2 (x=0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0) were synthesized via sol-gel process. The unit cell volume increased with Fe doping because the ionic radius of Fe3+ ion is larger than that of Si4+ ion. The conductivities of La10Si6-xFexO27-x/2first increased and then decreased with the in-creasing of Fe content. The increase of the conductivity might be attributed to the distortion of the cell lattice, which assisted the migration of the interstitial oxygen ions. The decrease of the conductivity might be caused by the lower concentration of interstitial oxygen ions. The op-timum Fe doping content in lanthanum silicates was 0.6. La10Si5.4Fe0.6O26.7 exhibited the highest ionic conductivity of 2.712×10-2 S/cm at 800 ℃. The dependence of conductivity on oxygen partial pressure p(O2) suggested that the conductivity of La10Si6-xFexO27-x/2 was mainly con-tributed by ionic conductivity.

Structure and Electrical Conductivity of Compositely Doped Oxide Solid Electrolyte La0.8Sr0.2Ga0.8Mg0.12Co0.08O2.8

(La, Sr) (Ga, Mg) O3-δ, (LSGM) perovskite compositions doped with transition metal Co on the B-site were prepared by solid state reaction. The effect of partial substitution of Ga for Co, La0.8Sr0.2Ga0.8Mg0.12Co0.08O2.8 (LSGMC2008) on the electrical conductivity was discussed. The results showed the compacted samples sintered at 1350℃ possesses increased electrical conductivity at low temperatures. The XRD patterns of the title materials indicated that LSGMC2008 possessed orthorhombic perovskite-type structure. The grains distributed relatively uniform from SEM photo. The Arrhenius plots of ionic conductivity in air of the LSGMC2008 exhibited differing slopes in the low-and high-temperature regions, and the corresponding Ea values were much lower than that of LSGM2020. All of these suggested that even at low sintering temperature, proper amount Co doped was beneficial to improve ionic conductivity of LSGM.

Estimations of Electrical Conductivities in Molten Slag Systems

In the present paper, the electrical conductivities of molten silicates systems, CaO‐MgO‐SiO₂, Na₂O‐MgO‐SiO₂, CaO‐FeO‐SiO₂ and CaO‐MgO‐MnO‐SiO₂ (SiO₂ = 45wt %) were estimated by the mass triangle method developed earlier by Chou. The computed results are compared with other approaches found in the literature. The predictions show satisfactory agreement with experimental results reported in the literature. A correlation was also made between the cation‐oxygen ion attraction parameter I and the electrical conductivities of slags. It was found that the electrical conductivity varies linearly with I when the content of transition metallic ions is less than 0.2 mole fraction. Beyond this, the effect of electronic conduction is expected to dominate. On the basis of the present approach, the electrical conductivities of higher order systems can be estimated. The approach suggested in the present paper offers a powerful tool to design slags for applications in metallurgical processes.     

Study on Modification of Sm2O3 by Ni／Sepiolite Catalyst

A series of Ni-Sm/sepiolite catalysts were prepared by impregnation. The modification of Sm2O3 for Ni/sepiolite was investigated by TPR, XPS and poisoning of CS2, respectively. The results indicate that the addition of Sm2O3 improves the activity of hydrogenation and anti-poisoning ability of Ni/sepiolite catalyst, and it also increases the dispersion of nickel atoms over support and the amount of active nickel atoms in catalyst. Effect of Sm203 on Ni/sepiolite catalyst ineludes not only electronic effect but also steric effect, whereas electronic effect seems to be principal.     

A white long-lasting phosphor Y2O2S:Tb3+, Sm3+: an improvement of Y2O2S:Tb3+

As an improvement of reported Y202S:Tb3 , a white-light long-lasting phosphor: Y2O2S:Tb3 , Sm3 was prepared by the solid-state reaction. The photo-luminescence spectra showed that the position and shape of Th3 and Sm3 emissions under UV excitation were similar in this host, which ensured a stable white emission color (daylight standard of IEC) under different excitations. The decay curves of co-doped samples indicated that the decay times of emissions of the two ions were close. The thermo-luminescence measurement suggested that the traps created by the doped Sm3 ions were helpful to postpone the white afterglow of co-doped samples. Therefore, thefunction of co-doped Sm3 ions was confirmned as improving the white emission colors of samples and acting as new trap centers.
