Local structures in ceria-based materials were investigated by UV resonance Raman spectroscopy using a 363.8 nm laser line for the first time. In spectra of highly crystalline and undoped ceria, overtone LO series are clearly detected due to multiphonon relaxation effect. Gd3+ doping ceria additionally activates disorder bands that attributable lattice spaces with or without an oxygen vacancy. The crystal size dependency suggests Ce3+ ions preferably form MO8-type (M = Ce3+) complex...
A multinary nitride, Eu-doped CaAlSiN3, which had previously been synthesized at 1600–1800 °C as a red-emiting phosphor material, was obtained 500–800 via the reaction of CaAlSi alloy with low concentration Eu (composition Ca0.992Eu0.008AlSi) in ammonia present study. In supercritical (100 MPa), CaAlSiN3 formed temperatures ≥ 500 both and without addition sodium amide. The amide significantly facilitated synthesis prevented presence unreacted silicon, could be due to formation...
Abstract Among binary compounds, there is a high potential for discovery of novel members (polymorphic phases or compounds) the nitrides transition metals group due to pronounced dependence oxidation state (M) on pressure.
