In this paper, the possibility of mechano-chemical synthesis, as a single step process for preparation of nanostructured nickel aluminate sp...

Fe–Mg exchange is the most important solid solution involved in for Fe–Mg exchange between the coexisting crystalline phases and melt, KdFe–Mg, show a relatively simple and predictable behaviour partial melting of spinel lherzolite, and the system CaO– MgO–Al2O3–SiO2–FeO (CMASF) is ideally suited to explore with pressure and temperature: the coefficients for olivine and spinel do not show signi...

One of the core issues for multiferroicity is the strongly coupled ferroelectric polarization and magnetization, while so far most multiferroics have antiferromagnetic order with nearly zero magnetization. Magnetic spinel compounds with ferrimagnetic order may be alternative candidates offering large magnetization when ferroelectricity can be activated simultaneously. In this work, we investiga...

To understand the difference in reversible energy storage capacity between the O3-type layered Na and Li compounds, we use first principles calculations to study and contrast the effect of two well-known destabilization mechanisms, transformation into the spinel-type structures and cation mixing due to transition metal migration. This study is performed on the layered oxides at the A(0.5)MO(2) ...

In this work, nanostructured LiMn₂O₄ (LMO) and LiMn₂O3.99S0.01 (LMOS1) spinel cathode materials were comprehensively investigated in terms of electrochemical properties. For this purpose, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements as a function of state of charge (SOC) were conducted on a representative charge and discharge cycle. The changes in the electrochemical performance of...

the mössbauer spectra of nanoferrite materials such as ni0.25mn0.75fe2o4, co0.5mn0.5fe2o4 and ni0.4co0.6fe2o4 have been reported and the above materials were prepared by sol-gel combustion method using metal nitrates as source material and polyvinyl alcohol(pva) as agglomeration reducing agent. as the structural, thermal and magnetic properties (vsm) of the above ferrites have been published al...

This dissertation discusses the experimental results designed to constrain the processes of MORB generation. The main focus of this study is to investigate the location and the related processes of the transformation boundary from spinel to garnet peridotite facies at subsolidus conditions, because the presence of garnet in melting residues has significant influence to the conclusion drawn from...

The sequence of replacement in groundmass perovskite and spinel from SK-1 and SK-2 kimberlites (Eastern Dharwar craton, India) has been established. Two types of perovskite occur in the studied Indian kimberlites. Type 1 perovskite is found in the groundmass, crystallized directly from the kimberlite magma, it is light rare-earth elements (LREE)-rich and Fe-poor and its ∆NNO calculated value is...

~5 nm! Cr/(x nm) MgO/Mn0.52Zn0.48Fe2O4 ~MnZn spinel! substrate (1,x,7 nm), as well as ~5 nm! Cr/~7 nm! MgO/glass substrate structures have been grown using molecular beam epitaxy. The influence of the MnZn spinel on the in-plane transport and magnetotransport properties of the Cr layer were studied. The existence of pinholes in the MgO layer was explored by evaluating resistance versus temperat...

The aim of this work is not only the synthesis of black ceramic pigment with spinel structure using local and inexpensive minerals (chromite and manganese ores) but also throw some light on the relations between the structure and the colour of obtained pigment. Ultimate utilization spinel solid solution in ceramic materials is mostly due to their structure characteristics, their thermal and che...
