چکیده

Temperature dependent phase transitions of compounds (GeTe)(n)Sb(2)Te(3) (n = 6, 12, 15) have been investigated by in situ microfocus Laue diffraction. Diffusion processes involving cation defect ordering at ~300 °C lead to different nanostructures which are correlated to changes of the thermoelectric characteristics.

Effect of Amorphous Silica Addition on Martensitic Phase Transformation of Zirconia and Investigation of its Tetragonal Structure Stability Mechanisms

This work is focused on the effect of amorphous SiO2 addition on the phase transformation and microstructural evolution of ZrO2 particles. Considering the structural similarities between the amorphous ZrO2 and its tetragonal structure, XRD results showed initial nucleation of metastable tetragonal ZrO2 from its amorphous matrix upon heat treatment. This metastable phase is unstable in pure ZrO2...

An in situ powder diffraction study of the structural mixed-phase of YBa2Cu3O6+x at 200 and 300C

In this study, the YBa2Cu3O6+x samples at temperatures 200 and 300°C, as the value of x ( the oxygen content in 0the basal plane)  increased under nearly thermodynamical equilibrium condition, the structure changed from the well- known tetragonal (T) to a mixed-phase (T+OII) region (orthorhombicII phase is a superstructure). This mixed-phase region suggests a first order T/OII phase transition ...

رشد تک‌بلورهای Cd0.96Zn0.04Te به روش ترابری فاز بخار

  Cd0.96Zn0.04Te crystals were grown using vapor phase gas transport method (VPGT). The results show that dendritic crystals with grain size up to 3.5 mm can be grown with this technique. X-ray diffraction and Laue back-reflection patterns show that dendritic crystals are single-phase, whose single crystal grains are randomly oriented with respect to the gas-transport axis. Electrical measureme...

رشد تک‌بلور نیمرسانای Te04/0Zn96/0Cd به دو روش بریجمن تغییریافته و ترابری فاز بخار

Single crystals of Cd.96Zn.04Te (CZT) with 14 mm in diameter were grown by seedless modified Bridgman method. Also, crystals with the same chemical composition were grown by vapor phase inert gas-transport method (VPGT), and single crystals up to 3.5 mm in diameter were obtained. Structural studies by XRD and back reflection Laue method show that the grown crystals are single phase with high pu...
