The use of RE 2 Si O 7 materials as environmental barrier coatings ( EBC s) and in the sintering process advanced ceramics demands a precise knowledge coefficient thermal expansion . High‐temperature X‐ray diffraction HTXRD ) patterns were collected on different polymorphs, namely A, G, α, β, γ, δ, to determine changes unit cell dimensions. compounds belonging same polymorph showed, qualitatively, very similar parameters behavior with temperature, whereas polymorphs given compound exhibited...
Tetrahedral units can transport oxide anions via interstitial or vacancy defects owing to their great deformation and rotation flexibility. Compared with defects, vacancy-mediated oxide-ion conduction in tetrahedra-based structures is more difficult occurs rarely. The isolated tetrahedral anion Scheelite structure has showed the advantage of conducting oxygen interstitials but vacancies hardly be introduced into promote ion migration. Here we demonstrate that stabilized BiVO4 through Sr2+...
