TL;DR: In this article, the effects of different dopant species and combinations of dopants and the effect of microstructure are examined in terms of the properties of transition temperature, transition width, resistivity ratio, and transition hysteresis size.
Abstract: Doped V2O3 is examined to understand its useful properties as a positive temperature coefficient (PTC) material. The effects of different dopant species and combinations of dopant species and the effects of microstructure are examined in terms of the properties of transition temperature, transition width, resistivity ratio, and transition hysteresis size. In addition to the previously used dopants of Cr and Al, the dopants In, Al+Cr, Al+In, and Al+Ga are also found to be effective at producing a PTC phase transition. The combination of Al+In produced the best resistivity ratio for its transition temperature. Higher sintering temperatures are found to produce larger grains and a sharper transition. The sharper transition is interpreted as the combined effect of heterogeneous nucleation and self-catalysation within a single grain. The hysteresis decreases from over 100 K between the first cooling and the following heating to around 50 K for subsequent thermal cycles. This is most likely a result of the formation of microcracks which are observed in the ceramic. An additional five cycles, though, shows no measurable decrease in the hysteresis size indicating no further growth of the microcracks.

TL;DR: PbBr 2 PbI 2 CuBr(Cl) KBr glasses have been synthesized in this paper, and the experimental results show that the effect of mixed ions can improve glass-forming ability.
Abstract: PbBr 2 PbI 2 CuBr(Cl) KBr glasses have been synthesized. Their chemical resistance is much better than that of ZnCl 2 -based and CdBr 2 (CdI 2 )-based glasses. The infrared cut-off wavelength of PbBr 2 PbI 2 CuBr KBr glasses is 18 μm. The glass formation was studied by infrared spectra analysis and differential thermal analysis. The experimental results show that the effect of mixed ions can improve glass-forming ability.

TL;DR: In this article, some kinetics parameters of alumina during microwave sintering were studied and compared with that during conventional processing, and it was indicated that the microwave processing at higher temperatures for a shorter time was favorable for preparing high density and fine-grained alumina ceramics.
Abstract: Some kinetics parameters of alumina during microwave sintering were studied and compared with that during conventional sintering. The results demonstrated that the sintering rates for microwave processing were much greater than that for conventional processing, and the grain growth of alumina was rapid with prolonged time at high temperature in a microwave field. It was indicated that the microwave sintering at higher temperatures for a shorter time was favorable for preparing high density and fine-grained alumina ceramics.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the influence of mixed-cation and mixed-anion effect on glass formation is discussed. And the results show that both mixedcation and mixing effects are beneficial to glass formation for dynamic reasons and the weak chemical bond introduced by the mixed anion effect may reduce glass formation of some strong systems.

TL;DR: In this article, a continuum damage mechanics approach is used to develop a constitutive model for describing the characteristics of fiber-reinforced composite materials damaged by matrix cracking, where the matrix cracks are assumed to be an array of parallel cracks along fibers in the plies, and the average measurement of the damage effects by this special damage state on the composite materials is represented by a vectorial internal state variable (ISV).

TL;DR: In this article, the effects of 57Fe-implanted Al2O3 and post-implantation thermal annealing on surface properties and structure of an implanted layer have been studied by electric measurement.
Abstract: The effects of 57Fe-implanted Al2O3 and post-implantation thermal annealing on surface properties and structure of an implanted layer have been studied by electric measurement. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Mossbauer spectroscopy. It has been found that the resistivity of the implanted layer of polycrystalline alumina is greatly reduced and that relatively high doses and suitable annealing temperatures must be used to achieve modification of the electrical properties. XPS and Mossbauer spectroscopy measurements have shown that the implanted iron ions are in three charge states of Fe4+, Fe2+ and Fe0 for an as-implanted sample. After thermal annealing, the iron is present as Fe3+, Fe2+ and Fe0. Finally, the conductivity mechanisms are discussed briefly. The electrical conductivity for Fe-implanted polycrystalline alumina may be caused not only by mobile interstitials of aluminum and electronic defects but also by the implanted metallic elements themselves.

TL;DR: In this article, the transport problem for interstitial fluorine ions in M 1−xLnxF2+x (M = Ca, Sr, Ba, Pb ; Ln = La, Y, Ce, etc.) is discussed in terms of the percolation theory.
Abstract: The transport problem for the interstitial fluorine ions in M1−xLnxF2+x ( M = Ca, Sr, Ba, Pb ; Ln = La, Y, Ce , etc.) is discussed in terms of the percolation theory. An expression for the percolation threshold x c (i.e. the critical dopant amount of LnF3) is obtained and the theoretically predicted values of x c are found to be consistent with the experimental results. It appears that the percolation problem in M1−xLnxF2+x belongs to the same universality class as the standard percolation problem.
