Microstrucures of Metal-Oxide Composites Formed by Solid-State Displacement Reaction

Synthesis & Characterization of CaB4O7 Powder by Solid-State Reaction

The synthesis of calcium tetraborate was investigated in a temperature ranging from 800℃ to 900℃ using the solid-state reaction method. The synthesis was done using ammonium tetraborate tetrahydrate as the source of boron. At temperatures of 800 ℃ and 880 ℃, the mixed phases from different compounds were formed. At the optimum temperature of 840℃, the mixed phase was only composed of meta and t...

Ti2Au2C and Ti3Au2C2 formed by solid state reaction of Au with Ti2AlC and Ti3AlC2

Uniform doping of metal oxide nanowires using solid state diffusion.

The synthesis of one-dimensional nanostructures with specific properties is often hindered by difficulty in tuning the material composition without sacrificing morphology and material quality. Here, we present a simple solid state diffusion method utilizing atomic layer deposition to controllably alter the composition of metal oxide nanowires. This compositional control allows for modification ...

Ti2Au2C and Ti3Au2C2 formed by solid state reaction of gold with Ti2AlC and Ti3AlC2.

Incorporation of layers of noble metals in non-van der Waals layered materials may be used to form novel layered compounds. Recently, we demonstrated a high-temperature-induced exchange process of Au with Si in the layered phase Ti3SiC2, resulting in the formation of Ti3AuC2 and Ti3Au2C2. Here, we generalize this technique showing that Au/Ti2AlC and Au/Ti3AlC2 undergo an exchange reaction at 65...

Synthesis and Processing of SnO2, CaSnO3 and Ca2SnO4 Nanopowders by Solid-State Reaction Technique

The nanopowders of SnO2, CaSnO3 and Ca2SnO4 in the size rang of 5-70 nm have been prepared using solid-state reaction technique. The technique is convenient and inexpensive in comparison to the conventional routes of compound prepared and processing where, many steps of mixing and annealing are i...
