Chemical Precipitation of BaCeO3 – CeO2 Based Nano-ceramic Composite Oxide Materials and Their Physical Characterization

In order to reduce the operating temperature of solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs), novel electrolyte materials based on CeO2 and BaCeO3 are being developed in the scientific realm. In this context, we propose a new methodology for preparing the nano-ceramic composite materials such as BaCe0.9Gd0.9O3-δ – Ce0.9Gd0.9O2-δ (BCGO–CGO) and BaCe0.8Sm0.2O3-δ – Ce0.8Sm0.2O2-δ (BCSO – CSO) as possible elec...

Effects of TiO 2 nanostructure and various ceramic supports in photocatalytic membranes for water treatment

The growing need for clean drinking water worldwide is one of the pressing issues of this century. The World Health Organization estimates that in 2005, 1.6 million children under the age of 5 died from causes due to unsafe drinking water. Low-pressure membrane filtration systems are likely to play an important role in water purification and reuse strategies. While these systems have low-cost a...

Light propagation in composite materials with gain layers

Light propagation through a single gain layer and a multilayer system with gain layers is studied. Results obtained using the Fresnel formulas, Airy's series summation, and the numerical solution of the nonlinear Maxwell±Bloch equations by the finite difference time domain (FDTD) method are analyzed and compared. Normal and oblique propagation of a wave through a gain layer and a slab of a phot...
