The hydroxide co-precipitation approach is demonstrated to prepare Zn2V2O7 in a reproducible and straightforward manner. Based on the structural refinement of the PXRD pattern along with FTIR, Raman spectra, and microscopic analysis, the thortveitite structure for Zn2V2O7 is confirmed. The sample shows a surface area of 45.3 m(2)/g (BET) and has pores with a mean pore diameter of 30.9 nm. The V5+-O2- charge transfer transition manifests as intense absorbance in the UV region, yielding a bandgap of 2.9 eV. The sample catalyzed the photo-oxidation of benzyl alcohol to benzaldehyde (86%) and benzoic acid (14%) in 120 min. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Iron substitution in PrAlO3 perovskite leading to structural transformation and multiferroicity

Vipul Shrivastava, Rajamani Nagarajan

Summary: The stabilization of FeAlO3 perovskite with larger sized Pr3+ ions instead of Fe3+ ions was successfully achieved, resulting in ferroelectric behavior in the iron substituted PrAlO3 samples. Various characterizations confirmed the presence of iron and praseodymium in different oxidation states, as well as the ferromagnetic/ferrimagnetic behavior in the samples. High Curie temperature above room temperature was observed in the 70 mol% iron substituted PrAlO3, which is a significant finding among the available polymorphs of PrAlO3 or FeAlO3.

Carbon and nitrogen co-doped WO3 as sonocatalyst

Priyanka Yadav, Vipul Shrivastava, Rajamani Nagarajan

Summary: A mixture of ammonium para tungstate and graphitic C3N4 was calcinated to produce blue colored products, with XRD patterns confirming the presence of hexagonal and orthorhombic WO3. The samples were found to be doped with carbon and nitrogen, affecting their catalytic activity and optical properties. Hexagonal WO3 exhibited superior catalytic efficiency and higher oxygen vacancy concentration compared to orthorhombic WO3, leading to enhanced degradation of dye solutions under ultrasonic conditions.

Optical, electrical, and catalytic (photo-and sono-) properties of indium doped γ-Bi2O3 with Sillenite structure

Rajamani Nagarajan, Vipul Shrivastava, Jyoti Pandey

Summary: This study stabilized metastable gamma-Bi2O3 without impurities and investigated the effects of indium ion doping on its structure and optical properties. Doping with indium resulted in changes in color and optical bandgap, with non-stoichiometric samples exhibiting lower bandgap values. Additionally, indium-doped non-stoichiometric Sillenites displayed higher BET surface area and slightly increased oxygen ion conductivity compared to stoichiometric counterparts.

Chemical pressure-induced structural, optical, and magnetic property transformations of PrAlO3

Vipul Shrivastava, Rajamani Nagarajan

Summary: In this study, progressive substitution of non-magnetic Al3+ ion with magnetic Cr3+ ion in PrAlO3 was carried out. The effects of chemical pressure on the structure, optical, and magnetic properties were investigated. The inclusion of Cr3+ ions led to a reduction in symmetry and a change in the optical bandgap and magnetic behavior of the samples.
