AB  - Photoluminescence (PL) analysis provide us important information about the structure of materials, however the PL behavior of (x)Ni0.7Zn0.3Fe2O4-(1-x)BaTiO3 ((x)NZF-(1-x)BT) multiferroic composites is not very well know. Based on this, (x)NZF-(1-x)BT powders whit different ratio of NZF/BT (x= 0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 0.9) were synthesized by auto-combustion method. After that, the PL property of the composites was explored through measurements carried out using as excitation source a krypton laser with wavelength of 350 nm. The presence of PL emission suggests that the structures of the materials are medium range disordered. Oxygen vacancies (anion vacancies), metal vacancies (cation vacancy) and lattice distortion are responsible by PL emission due to formation of structural defects which are essential to promote the electronic transitions inside band gap. Emission at low energy (green/yellow/red) occurs due to deep defects which modify the Fermi level generating intermediary levels near the conduction band. On the other hand, PL emission at high energy region (violet/ blue) is originated by the presence of shallow defects which generate states next to the valence band. In the present work, all samples showed a broad band emission centered around 450 nm (Figure 1), being a region characteristic of contribution of shallow defects for photoluminescence emission. In addition, the PL broad band emission is an evidence of structural disorder in the lattice of materials which promotes the formation of numerous states within the band gap.

AB  - Ferroics and multiferroics are among the most attractive multifunctional materials. In recent years, multiferroic composite consisted of two or more ferroic orders, such as ferroelectric, ferromagnetic, or ferroelastic, in which coupling between these phases can produce magnetoelectric effect, has been drawing significant attention. Besides others, (Ni, Zn)Fe2O4-BaTiO3 composites have attracted considerable attention not only due to fundamental research of magneto-electric effect, but also for the potential applications in many electronic devices such as drug delivery, heterogeneous catalysis, levitated railway system, magnetic-refrigeration, microwave devices, antennas, memory devices, etc. In this composite, (Ni,Zn)Fe2O4(NZF) possesses magnetic behavior, and the ferroelectricity is due to the presence of BaTiO3 (BT). In the present work, it was investigated the structural and photoluminiscence properties of NZF-BT composite nanopowders prepared by auto-combution method and the different ratio of NZF/BT was explored. XRD indicated well cristallized powders but with small presence of secondary phases respecting to BT. By FE-SEM analyses was noticed the agglomerates with wide particles size distribution, as well as the difference of the particles morphology between (Ni,Zn)Fe2O4 and BaTiO3. FT-IR spectra display interactions between metal-oxygen around 500-600 cm-1. The different ratio of NZF/BT effects on the optical band gap values indicating the formation of intermediary levels modifying the Fermi level. Photoluminescence (PL) analysis provides important information about the materials structures, however the PL behavior of these composites is not very well known. The presence of PL emission suggests that the structures of the materials are medium range disordered. All samples showed a broad band emission centered around 450 nm, being a region characteristic of resultant emission from the presence of shallow defects in materials structures. This behavior is reinforced by deconvolution of PL bands, which shows the contribution of tree sub bands to emission (blue, green and yellow emission), being that the largest area of spectra is occupied by a band correspondent to blue emission.

AB  - In this study we have prepared nickel ferrite (NF) and nickel zinc ferrite (NZF) nanoparticles by auto-combustion method starting from nickel, zinc and iron nitrates. After the process of self-ignition, fine precursor powder was thermally treated at 1000 °C for 1 h, forming nickel zinc ferrite powders, with molar ratio of Zn 0, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7. XRD characterization showed the formation of well crystallized nickel ferrite and nickel zinc ferrite inverse spinel structure without presence of secondary phases. Ceramic materials were obtained by uniaxial pressing at 196 MPa and sintering at 1250 °C for 4 h in the tube furnace. SEM images at the free surface showed that substitution of Ni2+ ions with Zn2+ ions results in larger grains and lower porosity, confirmed by density
measurements.
Magnetization results showed ferromagnetic behavior of the NF and NZF
materials. Magnetic measurements of ferrites were carried out and presented in Fig. 1.
Saturation magnetization moment of NF was lower than for N0.7Z0.3F and N0.5Z0.5F, but
slightly higher than for N0.3Z0.7F. With increasing the ratio of Zn to 0.3, magnetization
increases, because the Fe3+ ions in the octahedral site interact with other Fe3+ ions. The
fields at which saturation occur was almost the same for all materials.

AB  - Recently, a considerable effort has been devoted to research and improvement of both dielectrics and wide band-gap semiconductors for the realization of fully transparent devices. Due to the lack of available p-type transparent conducting oxide (TCO) materials, special attention was paid to production of delafossite structured CuMO2 (M = Al, Cr or Y), which exhibit sufficiently large energy gap, required for transparency across the full visible spectrum, and high enough concentration of holes with sufficiently large mobility. Those materials are considered to be good candidates for p-type TCOs. Among them, the CuAlO2 seems to be the most promising candidate to fulfill the demands for technical application. 
However, related studies on CuAlO2 are interested not only in examination of the transparent conducting oxides properties, but also in exploring its applications as a catalyst for the conversion of solar power to hydrogen energy, catalysts for steam reforming process and exhaust gas purification, room temperature ozone sensors, or thermoelectric devices. The performance of CuAlO2 in some of the mentioned applications could be optimized by increasing surface area and decreasing its particle size. Therefore, the synthesis of nanocrystalline CuAlO2 has been a hot topic for material chemists.
The nanocrystalline delafossite CuAlO2 powder was synthesised by a sol-gel nitrate-citrate self-sustained combustion route. Citric acid was introduced both as the chelating and reducing agent or fuel. The citric acid/metal ion ratio was adjusted to provide fuel-lean, stoichiometric or fuel-rich conditions of the redox reaction. Equimolar amounts of copper and aluminium nitrates and the citric acid were dissolved in deionized water. The solution was agitated at room temperature for 1 h, and then neutralized to increase the efficiency of chelating agent. After several hours of drying in temperature range 60 oC – 80 oC, the sol was turned to homogeneous viscous gel. During the rapid heating, the gels auto-ignited at approximately 250 oC (depending on the amount of the fuel) and underwent smouldering combustion spontaneously with the evolution of large amounts of gases, subsequently forming the grey-black voluminous precursor powders. 
According to the X-ray diffraction analysis the phase pure delafossite was obtained only when the precursor powder was prepared from the stoichiometric redox reaction, and after the calcination at 920 oC for 4 h in Ar atmosphere. The field emission scanning electron micrographs revealed the cauliflower aspect of the calcined powder, where small primary particles formed the agglomerates. The formation of the phase pure CuAlO2 powder was also confirmed by Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy. 
Compared with the solid state synthesis where high processing temperatures (1100 oC) and long reaction times (96 h) have been used to obtain single-phase delafossite CuAlO2 [1, 2], both the calcination temperature and the dwell time are certainly lowered by the proposed citrate-nitrate combustion route.

AB  - Family of bismuth oxides was discovered more than 50 years ago by Aurivillius. Recently, there has been renewed interest in the properties of the Aurivillius phases as temperature-stable ferro-piezoelectrics. Several bismuth-layered crystal structures and their properties have been investigated in detail. However, a lot of aspects of the preparation and properties of barium bismuth titanate, BaBi4Ti4O15 [BBiT] remain unexplored, whereas being promising candidate for high-temperature piezoelectric applications, memory application and ferroelectric nonvolatile memories (Fe-RAM). In present work, BBiT was prepared by solid state reaction from mixture of oxides: BaO, TiO2 and Bi2O3 which was previously milled for 6 h (MA). The mixture was heated at 750 oC for 4 h. As a comparison, the same ceramics were prepared throught conventional solid state reaction (CSS). The same oxides mixture was homogenized for 24 h in isopropanol as a liquid medium and calcinated at 950 oC for 4 h which is 200 oC higher temperature than for MA procedure. Sintering process was carried out at    1130 oC for 1 h in both synthesis methods. Smaller plate like grains are noticed in BBiT ceramics prepared from powders obtained by MA process comparing to CSS process. In the temperature dependence of the dielectric permittivity, the maximum associated to the Curie temperature was higher and narrower in ceramics prepared by CSS method. Influence of the grain and grain boundaries contribution to the dielectric behaviour in both ceramics were analyzed  through impedance spectroscopy.

AB  - As a first discovered ferroelectric ceramic, barium titanate has become one of the
most extensively investigated ceramic materials used in electronics. For many years, A- and
B-site dopants have been used to modify the electrical properties of BaTiO3. in this paper,
barium titanate doped with 0.3 mol% of lanthanum and sintered at different sintering times
was investigated. Doped barium titanate nanopowder was prepared by doping pure barium
titanate starting from citrate solutions of all components: barium, titanium and lanthanum.
Experimental procedure was given in detail in previous reports. Obtained powders were
pressed in to pellets and sintered at 1300 "C for 2 and 16h in air atmosphere. The formation
of phase and crystal structure of BaTiO3 was carried out by XRD analysis. Microstructural
properties such as grain size distribution and morphology of sintered samples were
determined using scanning electron microscope. Measurement of dielectric constant and
dielectric losses was provided in the frequency range of 20 to 106 Hz. The variation of the
dielectric constant with temperature was measured in temperature interval from 20 to 180 oC.
. The XRD analysis of doped barium titanate indicates the formation of tetragonal
phase in samples sintered at both sintering times. Lanthanum has an influence on grain growth and shape of grains in doped barium titanate [2]. It was detected that the grain-size
also depends on sintering time. It can be notified the effect of lanthanum and sintering time
on dielectric constant. Lanthanum also has influence on decreasing the Curie temperature
of barium titanate. No frequency dependence of dielectric constant,was detected.

AB  - Scveral bismuth-layered crystal structure and their properties have been investigated-
in detail. However, a lot of aspects of the preparation and properties of barium bismuth
titanate unexplored, whereas being promising candidate for memory applications.
In present work barium-bismuth titanate (BaBi4Ti4O15-BBT) was prepared from stoichiometric, quantities of barium titanate and bisrnuth titanate obtained via mechanochemical
synthesis. Barium titanate (BaTi3O12:-BT) has been synthesised from michture of BaO and
Tio2 and bismuth titanate (Bi4Ti3O12-BIT) was prepared starting frorn Bi2O3 and TiO2
commercially available. Mechanochemical synthesis was performed in air atmosphere in ,
planetary ball mill, for BT during 60 min and for BIT during 360 min. Milling condition
were: zirconium oxide jars and zirconium oxide balls, ball-to-powder weight ration 20:1
and determined basic disc and disc with jars rotation speed. The powder mixture of BT and
BIT was homogenized for 30 min and after that sintered at 1100"C for 4h. Separatly, BIT
was sintered at 1000 C for 12h, in both cases without pre-calcination step and by
conventional sintering technique.
The Fig. I. shows the phase formation and crystal structure of BIT, BT and mixture
of this powders. Pattern of BBT powder sintered at 1100.c for 4h was analysed by XRD
analysis revealing the existence of tetragonal phase (Fig. 2.). The morphology of obtained powders was examined by SEM and TEM method (Fig. 3. and Fig. 4.). It can be conclude that pattern of BIT consists of nanoparticles which size is less than 20 nm. Mixture of BIT and BT consists of agglomerates of varying size and morphology which size is about 250 nm. The microstructure development of BIT and BBT ceramics was followed by SEM.
From Fig 5. and Fig. 6. it can be observed that BIT consists of plate-like grains but in the
case of BBT beside plate-like grains exist and spheric grains, also' It is evident
addition leads to the change in the microstructure development.

AB  - Barium titanate (BaTiO3) has been used in many applications such as multilayer
capacitors, piezoelectric ceramics, transducer devices, PTC resistor and has become one of
the most important ferroelectric ceramics. It is used extensively in ceramic capacitors, due to
its high dielectric constant and low loss characteristics.
Barium titanate was prepared by two methods, polymeric organometallic precursors
process and mechanochemicaly. X ray and SEM were used for caracterization of powders
and sintered samples. In both ways of synthesis the formation of cubic phase is obtained. It
can be observed that in the case of Pechini process BaTiO3 powder is well crystallized but in
the case of mechanochemically process, significant amount of amorphous phase was detected.
The sintered samples at 1300'C for 2h, prepared by Pechini process, shows the formation of
tetragonal phase. The morphology of the powders consists of particles and its agglomerates,
their dimensions depend of the synthesis method. The powder prepared mechanochemicaly
posses more agglomerates. The particles are bigger and with irregular shape. Average particle
size is about 100 nm and 250 nm for Pechini and mechanochemical process, respectively. In
sintered samples, prepared by Pechini process, at 1300oC for 2h is observed two types of
domain configuration. The wall thickness ranges from 0.08 pm up to 0.14 pm and from 0.14
Fm up to 0.17 pm for 90' and 180'domains respectably. The domain width is around 0.20
micron for both types of domains.
