The δ-phase of SrTeO3 at 780 K1
نویسندگان
چکیده
As part of a structural investigation of strontium tellurate(IV) (STO), SrTeO(3), with particular emphasis on the crystal chemistry and phase transitions, the structure of the δ-phase has been determined at 780 K using a single-crystal analysis. Both structural and non-linear optical measurements indicate that STO undergoes a γ→δ second-order ferroelectric phase transition at 633 K from the C2 (γ) to the C2/m (δ) modification. Systematic differences between the similar γ- and δ-phase structures were determined and it was found that this phase transformation can be described by a displacive mechanism.

PHASE STABILITY AND CONDUCTIVITY OF δ-Bi2O3 WITH MIXTURE OF YTTRIUM AND YTTERBIUM OXIDES
In this research Bi2O3 was doped with mixtures of 8, 10, 12 and 18 mol % of Y2O3 and Yb2O3 to stabilizing the δ-Bi2O3 phase using solid state reaction technique. Experimental samples were fabricated by isostatic pressing and sintering at 850 °C for 24 h. X-ray diffraction analysis detected cubic phase (δ-Bi2O3) as the sole stable crystalline phase in samples including 12 and 18 mol % of Y2O3 an...
متن کاملDegree-constrained 2-partitions of graphs
A (δ ≥ k1, δ ≥ k2)-partition of a graph G is a vertex-partition (V1, V2) of G satisfying that δ(G[Vi]) ≥ ki for i = 1, 2. We determine, for all positive integers k1, k2, the complexity of deciding whether a given graph has a (δ ≥ k1, δ ≥ k2)-partition. We also address the problem of finding a function g(k1, k2) such that the (δ ≥ k1, δ ≥ k2)-partition problem is NP-complete for the class of gra...
متن کاملA Predictive Model Accounting for the Mechanical Behavior of Galvanized Alloy Layers on the Mild Steel
Zinc coating is formed by the heterogeneous assembly of the Γ, Γ1, δ, ζ and η phases whose mechanical properties greatly differ from each other. Thermal strains resulting from large differences between thermal expansion coefficients are partially relaxed by the formation of a crack network. In order to model this phenomenon, initial hardness, thermal expansion coefficient αi and toughness (KIC)...

A mixed proton–electron conducting perovskite was synthesized by liquid-citrate method and the corresponding membrane was prepared by pressing followed by sintering. The hydrogen permeability of BaCe0.9Yb0.1O3-δ was studied as a function of temperature and hydrogen partial pressure (PH2) gradient. Using 100% dry hydrogen at 1173 K, the hydrogen permeation rate of dense membranes (1.63 mm thick)...

XRD and Raman analyses were performed to probe the phase formation and the variation of the normal phonon frequencies of the high temperature superconductor GdBa2Cu3O7-δ upon Ce doping. It was found that in addition to the orthorhombic 123 phase, some nonsuperconducting peaks, which are mainly due to the BaCeO3 secondary phase, are also formed that suppress the superconducting transition tempe...
