AB  - Systematic analysis of electrical characteristics of BaCe0.75In0.25O3-δ (BCI25) sintered sample was performed in a
dry and a wet argon atmosphere in the 250 ◦C–700 ◦C temperature range. The water vapor sensing properties of
BCI25 porous film and its response and recovery times were investigated under different conditions of temperature
and water vapor concentration. The 30 μm thick film obtained from the powder calcined at 1050 ◦C
exhibited sensitivity comparable to that of the sintered sample with a significantly shorter response and recovery
times. While the sensitivity of the film gradually decreased with a decrease in partial pressure of water vapor (p
(H2O)), a noticeable sensitivity was still observed at p(H2O) of 200 Pa. Decrease in conductivity depended
logarithmically on the partial pressure of water with the slope of 0.52 that is close to the theoretical value. After
several cycles, the reusability test proved an almost unchanged ratio between the impedance value in the dry and
the wet Ar atmosphere (p(H2O) = 2.34 kPa), which implied that BCI25, having good stability and sensitivity, is a
promising high-temperature humidity sensor.

AB  - BaCe0.9Y0.1O3–δ has been known as one of the best proton conducting electrolyte, which enables its application in intermediate-temperature solid oxide fuel cells (IT-SOFC) operating between 500 °C and 700 °C. The main disadvantage of this material is its instability in a CO2-rich atmosphere that limits its application with respect to fuel selection. Therefore, many attempts has been made to improve its stability by replacing yttrium with other dopants, or by co-doping.
In this study, we compared BaCe0.9Y0.1O3–δ and BaCe0.85Y0.1M0.05O3–δ (M = {In, Zr, Nb}) electrolytes by taking into consideration the dopant properties (primarily the valence, electronegativity and ionic radius) and how they influenced the microstructure, conductivity and chemical stability of doped BaCeO3. The samples were synthesized by the citric-nitric autocombustion method. BaCe0.85Y0.1In0.05O3–δ was sintered at 1400 °C for 5 h in air, while the temperature of 1550 °C was required for the other materials to complete the sintering. This makes the doping with In a preferable method since sintering temperatures above 1500 °C can lead to a certain materials degradation resulting in BaO loss. The total conductivities (σ) measured at 700 °C in wet hydrogen decreased in the following order:
BaCe0.9Y0.1O3–δ > BaCe0.85Y0.1Zr0.05O3–δ > BaCe0.85Y0.1Nb0.05O3–δ > BaCe0.85Y0.1In0.05O3–δ. By comparing the stability of the ceramics exposed to a 100% CO2 atmosphere at 700 °C for 5 h and examined by X-ray analysis, it was observed that only BaCe0.85Y0.1In0.05O3–δ could sustain the aggressive environment. The exposed sample contained only traces of secondary phases, while the other compositions were partially or significantly decomposed. By taking into account the values of the Goldschmidt tolerance factor (t) and dopant electronegativity

AB  - In this study, we tried various cation substitutions at Bi-site (La3+, Eu3+) and Fesite (Nb5+
, Zr4+
) to explore their possible synergism and improvement of the
ferroelectric properties of bismuth ferrite. The cations with higher valence ought to
suppress the formation of structural defects during syntheses, such as oxygen and
bismuth vacancies. These defects are responsible for high leakage currents and low
breakdown voltages characteristic of pure BiFeO3. On the other hand, rare earth
cations at the Bi-site usually enable densification of the ceramics at a broader range
of temperatures, preventing bismuth loss and formation of defects and secondary
phases during sintering. However, dopant concentrations above 10–15 mol% may
give rise to a transition from polar, rhombohedral (R3c) to non-polar, orthorhombic
(Pnma) symmetry.
Thus, we synthesized pure and selected compositions doped BiFeO3 by a hydroevaporation method and determined the optimal calcination temperature by thermal
analyses of the precursor powders. Then we characterized ceramics samples using
X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and
polarization techniques. Although only 1 mol% Nb5+ decreased the leakage current,
it surprisingly deteriorated the ferroelectric properties of BiFeO3. Similar effect
exhibited the samples containing Zr4+ that showed no improvement compared with
undoped bismuth ferrite. On the contrary, La3+ and Eu3+ (incorporated at the Bi-site)
improved the ferroelectric properties as their concentrations increased, whereby the
samples doped with 15 mol% La exhibited higher remnant electric polarizations at
observed electric fields. The highest remnant electric polarization of 31.9 µC/cm2
at 150 kV/cm, was measured for Bi0.85La0.15Fe0.998Zr0.002O3, indicating the synergetic
effect of La3+ and Zr4+, which is limited to low Zr4+ concentrations.

In recent years, the modern industry and technology development has focused on non-magnetic, non-inductive, and electroconductive materials that can be used in conditions unfavorable for metals and alloys, such as constant high voltage, current and energy, with a particular emphasis on operating in acidic and humid environments. These conditions could be satisfied using chemically inert and thermally stable ceramic resistors with linear current-voltage (I-U) characteristic and low and almost constant electrical resistivity in the wide temperature range. Barium stannate (BaSnO3, BSO) is perovskite-type oxide with almost ideal cubic crystal structure, good thermal and chemical stability. Undoped BSO exhibits semiconductor behviour, but doping with an appropriate concentration of antimony can lead to changes in the electrical properties of BSO, making its metallic-like conductor. 
In this study, we investigate the influence of antimony concentration and sintering parameters on properties of antimony-doped barium stannate, BaSn1-xSbxO3 (BSSO, x = 0,00; 0,04; 0,06; 0,08 and 0,10) to obtain conductive electroceramic samples with linear current-voltage (I-U) characteristic and constant electrical resistivity in the temperature range of 25 °C to 150 °C. Ceramic samples were obtained by three different sintering techniques conventional, spark plasma and cold sintering.
	XRD analysis confirmed the existence of single-phase cubic BaSnO3 in all conventionally sintered samples at 1600 °C for 3 h, and also in spark plasma sintered samples at 1100 °C for 5 min. However, the spark plasma sintering at 1200 °C for 5 min led to the formation of secondary phase, tetragonal Ba2SnO4 in BSSO samples, whose content is significantly decreased by Sb doping. On the other hand, XRD analysis revealed the presence of unreacted starting components, SnO2 and BaCO3 in cold sintered BaSn0.92Sb0.08O3 sample (310 °C for 5 min, 20 wt.% 1 M acetic acid). The presence of low angle grain boundaries (LAGBs) was observed in conventionally (1600 °C for 3 h) and spark plasma sintered (1200 °C for 5 min) samples with x = 0.08. The results of DC (I-U characteristic) and AC (Impedance spectroscopy) measurements confirmed the semiconducting properties of all BSSO sample, except the spark plasma sintered BaSn0.92Sb0.08O3 (1200 °C for 5 min) sample. Metallic-like behavior of this sample is manifested through the linear I-U characteristic and low electrical resistivity, which remained almost constant in the investigated temperature range, due to the loss of potential barriers at the grain boundary region as a consequence of LAGBs present in BaSn0.92Sb0.08O3 ceramic sample.

AB  - Numerous methods have been utilized for molecular detection, including optical, calorimetric, acoustic, and techniques based on changes in electrical properties, such as metal oxide semiconductor sensors [1,2]. Recent research endeavors have led to a significant rise in sensitivity, detecting parts per billion (ppb) [3], but the challenges of selectivity and cross-sensing remain crucial areas of investigation. Developing a gas sensor with high selectivity to efficiently analyze multi-gas mixtures would be of great significance, with potential applications in various fields such as technology, environmental control, biology, and medicine.
Quantum sensors are a promising new technology for the detection of gas mixtures. They offer a number of advantages over traditional methods, including high sensitivity, selectivity, and response time. In the presentation, we propose a new method based on the resonant interaction of dipole molecules with ac fields, in the presence of a dc electric and magnetic field that creates Zeeman and Stark splitting of molecular levels specific to certain molecules, ensuring selectivity [4].
In this talk, we present some preliminary experimental results obtained for the molecule NO on the use of quantum sensors for the detection of gas mixtures. Our results demonstrate the potential of quantum sensors for a variety of applications in gas sensing. We believe that quantum sensors have the potential to revolutionize the field of gas sensing.

AB  - Barium-stannate (BaSnO3, BSO) is a member of the perovskite-type alkaline
earth stannates ASnO3 (A = Ca, Sr, Ba) with an ideal cubic crystal structure (space
group: ). Doping with antimony (Sb5+) can change this wide band-gap
semiconductor (Eg = 3.1-3.4 eV) into an n-type semiconductor with high electrical
conductivity at room temperature. The major drawbacks in the BSO-based ceramics
synthesis are phase composition and low density of final ceramic materials. These
problems could be solved using spark plasma sintering (SPS), a current and
pressure-assisted technique, which enables the preparation of dense ceramics at
significantly lower temperatures and for a shorter time.
To investigate the influence of spark plasma sintering temperature on the
structural, microstructural and electrical properties of BaSn1-xSbxO3 (BSSO, x =
0.00; 0,04; 0.06; 0.08; and 0.10) ceramics samples, BSSO powders were spark
plasma sintered at 1100 °C, 1200 °C and 1250 °C for 5 min.
X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed that all ceramic samples sintered at
1100 °C crystallized in a single-phased cubic BSO structure. Their relative densities
were in the range of 72–82% ρt. Sintering at 1200 °C increased the samples’ relative
densities to 79–96% ρt, but also induced the formation of a barium-rich secondary
phase, Ba2SnO4. Rising the sintering temperature further to 1250 °C induced the
melting of all samples except BaSn0.92Sb0.08O3. Field emission scanning electron
microscopy (FE-SEM) revealed that doping with antimony decreased the grain sizes
in BSSO samples sintered at 1100 °C and 1200 °C up to the concentration x = 0.08.
Electrical measurements revealed the typical semiconductor behavior of the
undoped samples, showing nonlinear current-voltage characteristic and the existence
of one semicircle in their impedance spectra, characteristic for materials with double
Schottky barrier at the grain boundaries. However, samples with higher dopant
concentrations (x = 0.08 and 0.10) showed significantly lower electrical resistivity
and linear current-voltage characteristic. The lowest and almost constant value of
electrical resistivity in the temperature range of 25–150 °C, and complete loss of the
semicircle in its impedance spectrum revealed the metallic-like behavior of sample
BaSn0.92Sb0.08O3 sintered at 1200 °C.

AB  - The non-magnetic, non-inductive electroconductive materials with linear current-voltage characteristic and low and almost constant electrical resistivity in the wide temperature range could be used in conditions unfavorable for metals and alloys. Particular emphasis is placed on the performance and endurance of these materials in conditions at constant high voltage, current, and energy, as well as operating in acidic and humid environmental conditions.
The aim of this work was to investigate the influence of antimony concentration and sintering parameters on the structure, microstructure, and electrical properties of antimony-doped barium stannate, BaSn1-xSbxO3 (BSSO, x = 0,00; 0,04; 0,06; 0,08 and 0,10) to obtain conductive electroceramic samples with linear current-voltage (I- U) characteristics and low electrical resistivity. For this purpose three different sintering techniques were used: conventional, spark plasma and cold sintering.
According to the X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, single-phase ceramic mater- ials with cubic BaSnO3 structure were obtained by conventional sintering at 1600 °C for 3 h and spark plasma sintering at 1100 °C for 5 min. Raising the spark plasma sintering temperature to 1200 °C induced the formation of Ba-rich secondary phase, Ba2SnO4. XRD analysis confirmed the presence of unreacted SnO2 and BaCO3 in cold sintered BaSn0.92Sb0.08O3 sample (310 °C for 5 min, 20 wt.% 1 M acetic acid). Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) indicates a significant decrease in grain size upon doping, regardless of the sintering technique. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) revealed the presence of low angle grain boundaries (LAGBs) in conventionally and spark plasma sintered (1200 °C for 5 min) samples with x = 0.08. The results of electrical measurements confirmed the semiconducting properties of all BSSO, except the spark plasma sintered BaSn0.92Sb0.08O3 (1200 °C for 5 min) sample. This sample showed linear current-voltage characteristic, the lowest and almost constant electrical resistivity in the temperature range of 25–150
°C resulting from the loss of potential barriers at grain boundaries due to the large fraction of LAGBs present in BaSn0.92Sb0.08O3 ceramic sample.

AB  - Developing highly efficient semiconductor metal oxide (SMOX) sensors capable of accurate and fast responses to environmental humidity is still a challenging task. In addition to a not so pronounced sensitivity to relative humidity change, most of the SMOXs cannot meet the criteria of real-time humidity sensing due to their long response/recovery time. The way to tackle this problem is to control adsorption/desorption processes, i.e., water-vapor molecular dynamics, over the sensor’s active layer through the powder and pore morphology design. With this in mind, a KIT-5-mediated synthesis was used to achieve mesoporous tin (IV) oxide replica (SnO2-R) with controlled pore size and ordering through template inversion and compared with a sol-gel synthesized powder (SnO2-SG). Unlike SnO2-SG, SnO2-R possessed a high specific surface area and quite an open pore structure, similar to the KIT-5, as observed by TEM, BET and SWAXS analyses. According to TEM, SnO2-R consisted of fine-grained globular particles and some percent of exaggerated, grown twinned crystals. The distinctive morphology of the SnO2-R-based sensor, with its specific pore structure and an increased number of oxygen-related defects associated with the powder preparation process and detected at the sensor surface by XPS analysis, contributed to excellent humidity sensing performances at room temperature, comprised of a low hysteresis error (3.7%), sensitivity of 406.8 kΩ/RH% and swift response/recovery speed (4 s/6 s).

AB  - With the increase of the consumption of electrical energy, the need for new energy sources is growing. Conversion of waste heat into electricity, based on the thermoelectric effects is one of the ways to produce the electrical energy. Layered cobalt oxides have been the subject of many investigations in past decade as candidates for application in energy conversion. The ceramic sodium cobaltite became a promising candidate for potential thermoelectric applications, because of its large thermopower and low resistivity. In this work, polycrystalline samples of NaCo2–xCuxO4 (x = 0, 0.01, 0.03, 0.05) were synthesized from the powder precursors obtained by the citric acid complex method (CAC) and mechanochemically assisted solid state reaction method (MASSR). The obtained powders were uniaxially pressed into disc-shaped pellets and subsequently sintered at 880 °C in inert argon atmosphere. Thermoelectric parameters (the electrical resistivity (ρ), the thermal conductivity (κ) and the Seebeck coefficient (S)) were measured in two temperature regions. In the first one (between 2 and 300 K) κ and S were measured by a Quantum Design physical property measurement system (PPMS 9T) equipped with a 9 T magnet and ρ by a standard four-terminal technique using the direct current. In the second, all parameters were measured simultaneously, in the temperature gradient (ΔT) between hot and cold sides of the samples using Z- meter, based on the “large ΔT method”, and the figure of merit (ZT) was subsequen tly calculated. Accordingly, ρ, κ and S were determined for a temperature gradient that is established between the hot and cold sides of the samples at the time of each measurement; thus the obtained values represented the actual thermoelectric response of a material under conditions of application. In the low temperature range the highest figure of merit of 0.022 at 300 K was observed for the CAC sample doped with 1 mol% Cu, and it was almost twice higher than in the undoped sample confirming the significant influence of Cu-doping with even small concentrations. As for the results obtained in the temperature gradient, the highest ZT value of 0.061 at T = 473 K was observed for the sample with 5 mol% of Cu prepared by the CAC method. Sample magnetization was measured using a Quantum Design SQUID MPMS-XL-5 magnetometer in zero field cooled (ZFC) and field cooled (FC) regimes, between 2 K and 300 K and in the applied field of 100 Oe. The magnetic susceptibility (χ) of all samples followed the Curie-Weiss law in the temperature range between 50 K and 300 K, while a negative Weiss constant (θ) implied an antiferromagnetic interaction. Indentation experiments were carried out to investigate mechanical properties, therefore, the hardness (H) and the Young's modulus of elasticity (Y) were determined using Agilent Nanoindenter G200. It was found that the highest Y (65.2 GPa) and H (1.41 GPa) were obtained for the CAC sample containing 1 mol% of Cu. These results indicated a significant improvement of mechanical properties even in the case of the sample with the lowest dopant concentration. In general, better thermoelectric and mechanic properties showed the samples synthesized by the CAC method, confirming that fine, homogeneous precursor powders present a good base for obtaining material with improved thermoelectric performances.

AB  - Acceptor-doped perovskites (ABO3 general formula) with large lattice constants (such as BaCeO3, SrCeO3, and BaZrO3) have been known as fast proton conductors. The ability to conduct protons at high temperatures makes them suitable for humidity sensors in a high-temperature environment. The presence of traces of humidity can play a key role in the functioning of certain industrial processes at higher temperatures. Electrical characteristics of BaCe0.75In0.25O3–δ (BCI25) sintered sample were analyzed in a dry and a wet argon atmosphere in the 250–700 °C temperature range. The water vapor sensing properties of BCI25 porous film and its response and recovery times were investigated under different conditions of temperature and water vapor concentration. A 30 μm thick film obtained from the powder calcined at 1050 °C exhibited sensitivity comparable to that of the sintered sample with significantly shorter response and recovery times. While the sensitivity of the film gradually decreased with a decrease in partial pressure of water vapor (p(H2O)), a noticeable sensitivity was still observed at p(H2O) of 200 Pa. Decrease in conductivity depended logarithmically on the partial pressure of water with the slope of 0.52 that is close to the theoretical value. After several cycles, the reusability test proved an almost unchanged ratio between the impedance value in the dry and the wet Ar atmosphere (p(H2O) = 2.34 kPa), which implied that BCI25, having good stability and sensitivity, is a promising high-temperature humidity sensor.

AB  - With the significant loss of biodiversity in the 20th and 21st century, pollution of air, soil, and water, alternatives to chemical pesticides are needed to preserve nature. One of the alternatives is the usage of plant components as pest insect control. They are an appropriate alternative to chemical pesticides as they are cost-effective, easy, and safe to use, do not affect the environment or beneficial insects negatively, and are still an effective measure against pest insects. The biggest challenge with plant components is that they are biologically unstable. That is why further insight into the effectiveness of different extracts and oils against different pest insects is needed. We tested the antifeedant activity of plant products derived from neem (Azadirachta indica A.Juss.), and linalool on the Spongy moth (Lymantria dispar L, 1758) larvae. To test the efficiency of these compounds, we conducted choice tests in laboratory conditions. Two disks (treatment and control) cut from red oak (Quercus rubra L.) leaves were presented to the second instar spongy moth larvae in Petri dishes for the testing. Twenty-five Petri dishes were used for each of the tested compounds at four concentrations (200 in total). The tested compounds showed the most significant effect at higher concentrations.

AB  - In this work, the decoration of noble metal nanoparticles on a semiconductor
surface was used as a strategy to reach strong visible light absorption and efficient
electron-hole separation to enhance the photocatalytic activity of ZnO.
The Ag-modified ZnO nanopowders were obtained by the green synthesis. Zinc
acetate dihydrate with different silver nitrate content (0, 0.75, 1.5 and 3 mol%) was
dissolved in ethylene glycol in the presence of chitosan. The obtained mixtures in
the form of gel were heated at 150 °C for 2 h and subsequently calcined at 400 °C
for 1 h. The obtained samples were characterized by XRPD, FESEM, HRTEM, and
UV-vis techniques while the photocatalytic efficiency was tested by monitoring the
degradation of textile dyes Reactive Orange 16 (RO16), Acid Green 25 (AG25),
Mordant Blue 9 (MB9), and Ethyl Violet (EV) then compared with the commercial
ZnO nanopowder.
The results showed that the Ag/ZnO samples consisted of ZnO nanoparticles
with an average crystallite size of about 25 nm and Ag (20–30 nm) distributed on
the surface of ZnO. The uniformity in size and nearly spherical shape of ZnO
nanoparticles, forming various forms of agglomerates, were observed. Compared to
both, the unmodified and commercial ZnO, all the prepared Ag/ZnO composites
showed a broad band in the visible region at 500 nm, resulting in a narrowing of the
band gap. This band confirms the surface plasmon resonance of the metallic Ag
nanoparticles, since they can absorb visible light and activate the photocatalyst in
the visible spectrum.
All the obtained nanopowders showed higher adsorption power and
photocatalytic activity in the degradation of RO16 dye than the commercial ZnO.
The powder with 1.5 mol% of Ag had the highest photocatalytic efficiency as a
consequence of smaller Ag particles and their good distribution, as well as the
narrowest band gap. This means that the photocatalytic activity does not depend on
the Ag content only and that the size and distribution of the metal particles play an
important role. Since the ZnO with 1.5 mol% of Ag demonstrated the best
photocatalytic activity, the same sample was tested for diverse dyes and the high
photocatalytic efficiency was also confirmed by testing on AG25, MB9 and EV
dyes.

the visible spectrum.
All the obtained nanopowders showed higher adsorption power and
photocatalytic activity in the degradation of RO16 dye than the commercial ZnO.
The powder with 1.5 mol% of Ag had the highest photocatalytic efficiency as a
consequence of smaller Ag particles and their good distribution, as well as the
narrowest band gap. This means that the photocatalytic activity does not depend on
the Ag content only and that the size and distribution of the metal particles play an
important role. Since the ZnO with 1.5 mol% of Ag demonstrated the best
photocatalytic activity, the same sample was tested for diverse dyes and the high
photocatalytic efficiency was also confirmed by testing on AG25, MB9 and EV
dyes.",

AB  - In this work, in order to improve the photocatalytic efficiency of ZnO, the optimal CeO2 content in ZnO powders was determined by varying the quantity of CeO2 from 0 to 10 mol%. The structural, microstructural, optical, textural, and photocatalytic properties of the hydrothermally obtained ZnO and CeO2/ZnO nanocomposites have been investigated by using the XRPD, FESEM, HRTEM/SAED, BET, and UV–Vis techniques. Detailed characterization revealed that CeO2, having spherical nanodots of about 5 nm with a large surface area, was distributed onto the ZnO surface, whose crystallites displayed a bimodal distribution, from nano-to micro-crystals. The morphology of ZnO is a combination of nanograins and microrods that further makes a 3-D tie-like morphology. The nanocomposite containing 5 mol% of CeO2 showed about 30% better photocatalytic efficiency in the degradation of Reactive Orange 16 dye compared to other samples under simulated solar radiation. In addition, the kinetics and mechanism of photocatalytic degradation were also proposed based on the photocatalytic activity and scavenger tests.

AB  - Efficiency of a semiconductor catalyst is directly correlated to its surface to
which a reactant species is adsorbed. There are several ways to optimize the active
surface, such as synthesis, processing or any aftertreatment of a photocatalytic
material. Our research was focused on modifying the existing sonochemically
assisted synthesis of bismuth vanadate.
Two optimization methods were used in order to increase specific surface of the
photocatalyst and number of its active sites. The first method was to change
concentration of reactants used in the synthesis to reduce agglomeration of bismuth
vanadate. Sonochemically assisted synthesis was performed with three different
concentrations of reactants to observe agglomeration tendency of the catalyst. The
other method included the use of sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) as a surfactant in
synthesis at highest concentration in order to hinder the particle growth.
Bismuth vanadate was shown to degrade mordant blue 9 dye (MB9) most
effectively in alkaline medium (pH = 13) under visible light, discoloring the solution
in under 2 hours, while the highest adsorption of MB9 is observed in acidic solution
(pH = 1).

AB  - Mixed oxides with the perovskite structure are known for their proton conducting ability at the temperatures above 500 °C. This characteristic makes them suitable for application as an electrolyte for intermediate-temperature solid oxide fuel cells. Doping of BaCeO3 with In3+ in place of Ce4+ leads to emergence of oxygen vacancies which take part in creation of proton defects. The characteristics of the BaCe1-xInxO3-δ were investigated in a wide range of In dopant concentrations (x = 0.05; 0.10; 0.15; 0.20; 0.25; 0.30; 0.35 and 0.40). All the samples were synthesized by a citric-nitric autocombustion method. The dense electrolytes were formed after sintering at 1300 °C for 5 h in air. X-ray powder diffraction analysis showed that powders with In content greater than 25 mol% contained In2O3 as a secondary phase. The highest total conductivity around 5×10–3 S•cm–1 was measured for the sample BaCe0.75In0.25O3-δ in the wet hydrogen atmosphere at 700 °C. After exposure to pure CO2 atmosphere at 700 °C for 5 h, the samples were investigated by X-ray diffraction analysis. It was found that even 15 mol% In could completely suppress degradation of the electrolyte. Ni-
BaCe0.75In0.25O3-δ/BaCe0.75In0.25O3-δ/LSCF-BaCe0.75In0.25O3-δ fuel cell was tested in wet hydrogen atmosphere and power density output of 264 mW•cm–2 was measured at 700 °C. This result is an indication of stability and functionality of this electrolyte and its versatility in respect to type of fuel and performing environment.

AB  - Bismuth ferrite is a unique multiferroic material that has a ferroelectric and antiferromagnetic order at room temperature. The rhombohedrally (R3c) distorted  BiFeO3 perovskite structure is a result of relative cation displacement along [111] axis of the cubic perovskite structure and relative rotation of two oxygen octahedra in opposite directions around [111] axis [1]. The partial substitution of Bi3+ with rare-earth ions can affect the magnitude of lattice distortion and thus the value of electric polarization. The presence of undesirable secondary phases (Bi2Fe4O9 and Bi25FeO39) and structural point defects (oxygen and bismuth vacancies) in pure BiFeO3 lead to a high leakage current, which deteriorates its ferroelectric properties. Doping with rare-earth elements with large ionic radii is found to reduce the number of the structural defects and thus improve ferroelectric properties [2].
	The influence of partial substitution of Bi3+ with La3+ and/or Eu3+ on ferroelectric properties of BiFeO3 ceramics was investigated. The Bi1-(x+y)LaxEuyFeO3 (x = 0, 0.025 0.05, 0.10; y = 0, 0.025, 0.05, 0.10) powders were synthesized by hydro-evaporation method, uniaxially pressed at 9 t/cm2 and sintered at 835 °C for 3 h. All the ceramic samples showed a rhombohedral structure, without presence of the secondary phases. Their morphology indicated the complete sintering under the given conditions. The grain size and grain shapes differed more depending on the dopant type and amount. The introduction of La3+ and/or Eu3+ at the site of Bi3+ led to such distortions within the rhombohedral lattice that resulted in much greater remnant electric polarization (Pr) in comparison with the undoped sample. The Bi1-(x+y)LaxEuyFeO3 ceramic samples with x+y = 0.10 showed approximately quadratic polarization vs. electric field P(E) hysteresis curves as well as significantly high values of pure ferroelectric polarization Pr, in large electric fields (100 – 140) kV/cm. The leakage currents of La3+/Eu3+-doped samples are mostly reduced, especially those doped only with Eu3+.

coloration and pungent odor that appeared after only a few hours of incubation with 10 mM Se+4 indicate the formation of

dimethylselenide (DMSe) and selenium nanoparticles (SeNPs), with the SeNPs/DMSe ratio rising with incubation time.

AB  - Dyes released from textile industries present a big threat to the environment, and
remediation of wastewaters became one of the major scientific challenges. In recent
years, there has been a great need for catalysts that would oxidize pollutants under
dark ambient conditions without the use of external stimulants like light,
temperature, or additional chemicals such as O3, H2O2. Efficient work of these
catalysts would significantly reduce the energy consumption. Among other
materials, perovskite-type oxides with general formula ABO3 emerged as possible
catalysts for dye degradation in the dark conditions. Lanthanum nickelates with
single (LaNiO3) and layered perovskite structure (La4Ni3O10, La3Ni2O7, La2NiO4)
showed good catalytic properties, due to the existence of nickel in two oxidation
states (Ni2+ and Ni3+) and the oxygen non-stoichiometry in these materials [1].
This study presents structural, microstructural and catalytic properties of the
LaNi1-xNbxO3-based (xNb = 0.000, 0,005 and 0,010; La-Ni-Nb-O) powders prepared
by mechanical activation method. The XRD (X-Ray Diffraction) analysis revealed
the existence of a multiphase oxide system, including layered structures of
nickelates Lan+1NinO3n+1 (n = 3, 2, 1, 0) and NiO phase in all La-Ni-Nb-O-based
powders. Also, the HRTEM (High Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy)
analysis confirmed the presence of structural polytypes in these powders. The
catalytic properties of La-Ni-Nb-O-based powders were investigated by degradation
of the anionic azo dye, Reactive Orange 16 (RO16), under dark ambient conditions
at different pH values (3, 6.5, 9.5 and 11) and temperature of 20 °C. The best
catalytic efficiency in the degradation of RO16 dye showed the sample with x(Nb) =
0.010 in acidic solution, where the residual of RO16 dye was about 4.5 % after 330
minutes. The reusability test for this powder in degradation process of RO16 dye
showed that the sample with x(Nb) = 0.010 retained its catalytic activity during three
cycles.

AB  - Barium stannate, BaSnO3 (BSO), is a perovskite-type alkaline earth metal
stannate with almost ideal cubic structure. Appropriate doping can alter this wide
band gap material’s electrical characteristics and change it either into a proton
conductor or n-type semiconductor. In the case of Sb doping on Sn site, BSO
becomes n-type semiconductor with high electrical conductivity at 25 °C.
The major drawback of BSO-based ceramics is its low density. The
conventional solid state procedure requires long thermal treatments with several
intermittent grinding and heating steps at temperatures up to 1600 °C [1].
To overcome this problem, we used Spark Plasma Sintering technique (SPS) for
the preparation of BaSn1-xSbxO3, (x = 0.00 (BSSO0) and 0.08 (BSSO8)) ceramic
samples. The samples structural properties were investigated using XRD (X-Ray
Powder Diffraction), XPS (X-Ray Photoelectron Spectrophotmetry) and SIMS
(Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry) analyses. XPS analysis revealed the existence
of many structural defects, including mixed oxidation states of tin (Sn2+/Sn4+) and
oxygen vacancies (VO) in both BSSO samples.
The electrical properties of the BSSO ceramic samples were investigated in the
temperature range of 4–300 K. The presence of oxygen vacancies in the BSSO0
sample led to the absence of the standard activated semiconductor behavior,
showing almost linear temperature-dependent resistivity in the examined
temperature range. On the other hand, the BSSO8 sample showed almost temperature-independent resistivity in the range of 70–300 K. This could be a
consequence of the presence of many structural defects such as mixed oxidation
states of Sn2+/Sn4+, probably Sb3+/Sb5+ and significant amount of O- species, as well
as the presence of the low angle grain boundaries found in this sample. The BSSO8
ceramic sample could satisfy the huge demand for the linear resistors with moderate
and high conductivity, due to its low and almost constant electrical resistivity in the
wide temperature.

AB  - Barium stannate, BaSnO3 (BSO), a cubic perovskite-type oxide with its
interesting structural, optical and electrical properties has wide application as an
electrode material, thermally stable capacitor, transparent conductive oxide,
photocatalyst, humidity and gas sensor material [1]. Partial substitution of Sn by Sb
in BSO leads to drastic changes primarily in its electrical properties, resulting in
metallic-like conductivity of doped ceramics. Major problems concerning the
synthesis of Sb doped BSO (BSSO) are connected to the phase composition and
density of final ceramic material.
This study covers the comprehensive investigation of structural, microstructural
and electrical properties of the Sb-doped BaSn1-xSbxO3 (x = 0.00, 0.04 and 0.08,
BSSO) ceramic materials obtained by two different sintering techniques:
conventional sintering (CS) and Spark Plasma sintering (SPS). The relative densities
of the BSSO-CS ceramic samples sintered at 1600 °C for 3 h was in the range of 79–
96 %. On the other side, the relative densities of BSSO-SPS ceramic samples in the
range of 86–96 % were obtained at 1200 °C, with sintering time of only 5 minutes.
The XRD analysis confirmed that cubic BaSnO3 is a major phase in all BSSO
samples. The presence of tetragonal Ba2SnO4 as a secondary phase was detected in
BSSO-SPS ceramic samples, with its content decreasing upon Sb-doping. As
expected, the grain size of the samples sintered at higher temperatures (BSSO-CS) is
larger in comparison with BSSO-SPS ceramic samples, which was confirmed by
Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). SEM analysis also revealed the layered
structure within the grains of BaSn0.92Sb0.08O3-CS sample while HRTEM analysis
confirmed the existence of the low angle grain boundaries (LAGBs) in the SPSed
sample with the same composition.
The electrical resistivity decreased upon Sb doping, and all doped BSSO
samples showed the linear I-U characteristic in the temperature range of 25–150 °C.
The semiconductor behavior of all BSSO-CS and BSSO-SPS (x = 0.00 and 0.04)
ceramic samples was confirmed through the existence of semicircles in their
impedance spectra. On the other hand, the BaSn0.92Sb0.08O3 sample showed the
metallic-like behavior resulting from the loss of the electrostatic barriers at LAGBs,
which is manifested through the absence of the semicircle in its impedance spectra.

AB  - Hexagonal (P63cm) yttrium manganite, YMnO3, is a multiferroic material with
ferroelectric transition at TC ≈ 900 K and antiferromagnetic transition at TN ≈ 70 K. Multiferroic behavior attracts a lot of attention because of its potential for
various applications. The application possibilities are limited by large
microcracking and microporosity of YMnO3 ceramics.
In this work, the influence of Ti-doping on structural, ferroelectric and magnetic
properties of YMnO3 ceramics was investigated. YMn1–xTixO3+δ (x = 0, 0.04, 0.08,
0.10, 0.15, 0.20) powders were prepared using sol-gel, polymerization complex
method from citrate precursors, which were then calcinated at 900 °C for 4 h. The
ceramic samples were obtained after sintering for 2 h at: 1400 °C for YMnO3,
YMn0.96Ti0.04O3+δ, YMn0.92Ti0.08O3+δ and YMn0.90Ti0.10O3+δ; 1450 C for
YMn0.85Ti0.15O3+δ; 1470 °C for YMn0.80Ti0.20O3+δ. X-ray diffraction (XRD),
transmission and scanning electron microscopy (TEM and SEM) were used for
structural and microstructural analysis of samples. Ferroelectric measurements of
P(E) loops and leakage currents, and magnetic measurements of zero field cooled
(ZFC) and field cooled (FC) M(T) curves, as well as M(H) curves, were enabled
multiferroic characterization of ceramic samples.
The samples x = 0 and 0.04 are crystallized in a single phased hexagonal
structure, (P63cm), the samples x = 0.08 and 0.10 exhibited the presence of both
hexagonal phase and rhombohedral phase (R3c), and the samples x = 0.15 and 0.20
are crystallized in rhombohedral 1×1×3 superstructure. Ti-doped YMnO3 ceramic
samples showed reduced density of microcracks, and inter- and intragranular pores,
and large increase in relative density (greater than 90 %) for YMn1–xTixO3+δ (x =
0.10, 0.15 and 0.20) samples. Leakage currents for most of doped samples were
lower than leakage current of undoped sample, but the ferroelectric response was not
significantly improved. Doping of YMnO3 with nonmagnetic Ti4+ led to suppression

abstract = "Hexagonal (P63cm) yttrium manganite, YMnO3, is a multiferroic material with
ferroelectric transition at TC ≈ 900 K and antiferromagnetic transition at TN ≈ 70 K. Multiferroic behavior attracts a lot of attention because of its potential for
various applications. The application possibilities are limited by large
microcracking and microporosity of YMnO3 ceramics.
In this work, the influence of Ti-doping on structural, ferroelectric and magnetic
properties of YMnO3 ceramics was investigated. YMn1–xTixO3+δ (x = 0, 0.04, 0.08,
0.10, 0.15, 0.20) powders were prepared using sol-gel, polymerization complex
method from citrate precursors, which were then calcinated at 900 °C for 4 h. The
ceramic samples were obtained after sintering for 2 h at: 1400 °C for YMnO3,
YMn0.96Ti0.04O3+δ, YMn0.92Ti0.08O3+δ and YMn0.90Ti0.10O3+δ; 1450 C for
YMn0.85Ti0.15O3+δ; 1470 °C for YMn0.80Ti0.20O3+δ. X-ray diffraction (XRD),
transmission and scanning electron microscopy (TEM and SEM) were used for
structural and microstructural analysis of samples. Ferroelectric measurements of
P(E) loops and leakage currents, and magnetic measurements of zero field cooled
(ZFC) and field cooled (FC) M(T) curves, as well as M(H) curves, were enabled
multiferroic characterization of ceramic samples.
The samples x = 0 and 0.04 are crystallized in a single phased hexagonal
structure, (P63cm), the samples x = 0.08 and 0.10 exhibited the presence of both
hexagonal phase and rhombohedral phase (R3c), and the samples x = 0.15 and 0.20
are crystallized in rhombohedral 1×1×3 superstructure. Ti-doped YMnO3 ceramic
samples showed reduced density of microcracks, and inter- and intragranular pores,
and large increase in relative density (greater than 90 %) for YMn1–xTixO3+δ (x =
0.10, 0.15 and 0.20) samples. Leakage currents for most of doped samples were
lower than leakage current of undoped sample, but the ferroelectric response was not
significantly improved. Doping of YMnO3 with nonmagnetic Ti4+ led to suppression
of antiferromagnetic ordering visible through decrease of the Néel temperature and
Weiss parameter and the appearance of weak ferromagnetism.",

AB  - Yttrium manganite, YMnO3, was doped with different concentrations of titanium (x = 0, 0.04, 0.08, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20) in order to improve the microstructural and multiferroic properties. The powders were prepared using sol-gel polymerization complex method from citrate precursors. Depending on the titanium concentration, the hexagonal structure and/or the rhombohedral superstructure are present in the sintered samples. The YMn1–xTixO3+δ (x = 0.10, 0.15, 0.20) ceramic samples showed significantly reduced density of microcracks, and of inter- and intragranular pores, and relative densities greater than 90 %. The structural parameters for YMn1–xTixO3+δ (x = 0, 0.10, 0.15) were correlated with the results of magnetic and ferroelectric measurements. The most of titanium-doped samples showed a reduction of the leakage current density in comparison with undoped YMnO3, and their ferroelectric responses were slightly improved. The modifications in structural arrangement resulted in partial suppression of ideal antiferromagnetic ordering visible through decrease of the Néel temperature and Weiss parameter, as well as the appearance of weak ferromagnetism and increase of magnetization (especially, in samples x = 0.08, 0.10, 0.15). These changes in physical quantities most likely originated from incorporation of the uncompensated magnetic moments and possible spin canting induced by enhanced symmetry break of the superexchange bridges.

AB  - BiFeO3 is one of the few multiferroic perovskites that exhibits magnetic and ferroelectric properties
at room temperature. However, it is also distinguished by high leakage current, low remnant electric
and magnetic polarization, and high electric coercive field. These features keep it away from any practical
use in electronics. Therefore, many attempts have been made to improve the properties of BiFeO3 by
Bi- or Fe-site doping or by both. Previous investigations suggest that doping with Nbat Fe-site can
positively affect the magnetic behavior of BiFeO3 and decrease the leakage current.
In this study, various cation substitutions at Bi-site (La3+, Eu3+) and Fe-site (Nb5+, Zr4+) were examined
to investigate their possible synergism and benefit for the ferroelectric properties. The role of the cations
with higher valence is to suppress the formation of structural defects during synthesis, such as oxygen
and bismuth vacancies. These defects are responsible for high leakage currents and, consequently, low
breakdown voltages characteristic of the pure BiFeO3. On the other hand, rare earth cations at the Bisite
usually enable densification of the ceramics in a wider range of temperatures, preventing bismuth
loss and forming defects and secondary phases during sintering. However, do pant concentrations above
10–15mol% may give rise to transition from polar, rhombohedral (R3c) to non-polar, orthorhombic
(Pnma) symmetry.
The carefully selected compositions of doped BiFeO3 were synthesized by a simple hydro-evaporation
method. The ceramics samples were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, scanning
electron microscopy (SEM), and polarization techniques, including leakage current measurements.
Although the introduction of Nb5+or Zr4+decreased the leakage current, they surprisingly deteriorated
the ferroelectric properties even at concentrations as low as 1 mol%. This effect was more pronounced for
the samples containing Nb. On the contrary, both La3+ and Eu3+ (incorporated at the Bi-site) improved
the ferroelectric properties as their concentrations increased. The La-doped samples exhibited higher
remnant electric polarizations at observed electric fields. The highest remnant electric polarization of31.9
μC/cm2at 150 kV/cm was measured for Bi0.85La0.15Fe0.998Zr0.002O3, indicating the synergetic
effect of La3+ and Zr4+, which is limited to very low Zr4+concentrations.
