Summary: Ni0.5Cd0.5HoxFe2-xO4 (X = 0, 0.02, and 0.04) ferrites with holmium substitution were synthesized through a sol-gel auto-combustion process. Characterizations using XRD, SEM, FTIR spectroscopy, and impedance spectroscopy revealed the structural and physical properties of the nanoparticles. The results showed that the addition of holmium reduced the lattice constant and increased the average crystallite size. The dielectric properties also exhibited an increase in tangent loss and dielectric constant with increasing holmium concentration.

Summary: We investigated the properties of 20MnFe(2)O(4)-80SiO(2) nanocomposite prepared using auto-combustion method. Structural and morphological analysis showed the formation of MnFe2O4 nanocrystallite and presence of alpha-Fe2O3 particles. The nanocomposite exhibited semiconductor behavior and non-Debye relaxation in conductivity measurements. VSM measurements revealed deviation from ideal magnetism due to the presence of alpha-Fe2O3 impurities. Mossbauer spectra confirmed the presence of Fe3+ ions and alpha-Fe2O3 components in the nanocomposite.

Summary: In this study, samarium substituted bismuth ferrite ceramics were prepared by sol-gel synthesis method and studied using various microscopic techniques to investigate the evolution of crystal structure across the morphotropic phase boundary region. The compounds exhibited structural transitions from polar active rhombohedral phase to anti-polar orthorhombic phase and then to non-polar orthorhombic phase within a specific concentration range. The results revealed a coexistence of different structural phases in the compounds, with a notable difference in the concentration range ascribed to the morphotropic phase boundary estimated by microscopic measurements.

Summary: In this paper, a moderate band gap Nd-substituted Ni-Zn ferrite is synthesized as a nano photo catalyst. The Nd substitution significantly affects the crystallite size, shape, band gap, and magnetic characteristics of the ferrite. The Nd-doped catalyst shows enhanced degradation efficiency of methylene blue dye under solar light irradiation. The photocatalytic activity is attributed to the presence of oxygen vacancies and the mixed valence state of Ni, Fe, and Nd.

Summary: Extensive research has revealed that oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in alkaline conditions involves dynamic surface restructuring. The development and design of sulfide/oxide pre-catalysts can reasonably adjust the composition and structure after surface reconstruction, which is crucial for OER. This study utilized a simple two-step hydrothermal method to achieve in situ S leaching and doping, inducing the composition change and structure reconstruction of CoFe oxides. The transformed FeOOH and CoOOH exhibited excellent OER activity and could be easily mass-produced using low-cost iron based materials and simple methods.

Summary: Zero-dimensional organic-inorganic metal halides (OMHs) are gaining attention in the fabrication of light-emitting diodes due to their broad emission band and high photoluminescence quantum yield. This work synthesized a zero-dimensional organic tetraphenylphosphonium bismuth chloride (TBC) that showed efficient blue light emission, with the emission mechanism attributed to the transition of Bi3+ ions. White light-emitting diodes (WLEDs) were fabricated using TBC, along with green-emitting and red-emitting single crystals, achieving single-component white emissions. These findings demonstrate the different emission mechanism of ns2 ions-based OMHs and highlight the potential of bismuth-based OMHs in WLEDs applications.

Summary: The revolutionary design concept of high-entropy alloys has brought new opportunities and challenges to the development of advanced metal materials. In this work, AlCrCuFe2NiTix high-entropy flux cored wires were prepared by combining the design idea of a high-entropy alloy with the characteristics of flux cored wire. AlCr-CuFe2NiTix high-entropy surfacing alloys were prepared using gas metal arc welding technology. The wear properties of the alloys were analyzed, and the phase composition, microstructure, strengthening mechanism, and wear mechanism were discussed. The results show that the alloys exhibit a dendritic microstructure with BCC/B2 + FCC phases. Increasing Ti content leads to the precipitation of Laves phase. The alloys show improved microhardness and wear resistance due to the precipitation of coherent B2 and Laves phases. However, excessive Ti addition results in the increase of Laves phase and reduced wear resistance of the alloys.

Summary: In this study, six bimetallic FeCo particles were synthesized via the hydrothermal method at different Fe:Co ratios. The Fe:Co ratio not only modulates the composition of the particles but also influences their structure and magnetic properties. The FeCo alloys showed a transformation from an Fe-based structure to a Co-based structure with increasing Co content. The Fe:Co ratio of 1:1 and 3:1 resulted in particles with the highest and lowest saturation magnetization, respectively.

Summary: We conducted a study on the formation of ultra-fine Y-Ti-Ta-O nano-oxides in Ta+B micro-alloyed 13CrWTi-ODS alloys using electron microscopy and first-principles calculations. The Y-Ti-Ta-O nano-oxides were found to be mainly Y2(Ti,Ta)2O7, with an average size of 7 nm and a number density of 6.8 x 1023 m-3. Excess boron was found to enhance the adhesion of some low-sigma grain boundaries but weaken the Fe/Y2Ti2O7 interface, while excess tantalum enhanced the Fe/Y2Ti2O7 interface but caused serious degradation of grain boundaries.

Summary: Recently, there has been an increasing interest in developing ultra-fine nanostructured electrodes with extensive reaction areas to enhance the performance and low-temperature operation of solid oxide fuel cells. The use of a refined approach involving co-sputtering metal alloys and oxide targets has demonstrated the feasibility of nano-columnar structures in perovskite-based electrodes, expanding the temperature range of thin film electrodes. This study systematically examines the effects of chamber pressure control in the co-sputtering process and identifies the intricate relationship between sputtering pressure and film structure. By fine-tuning the columnar growth in the electrode, significant improvements in performance and thermo-mechanical properties were achieved, resulting in high-performance all-sputtered solid oxide fuel cells.
