Effect of Cu doping on Ba0.95Pb0.05TiO3 electrical properties studied by means of electrical impedance spectroscopy
2019
The ceramics of 0.95BaTiO3–0.05PbTiO3+Xwt.%CuO (X = 0.05, 0.1, 1, 3) were prepared by a solid phase reaction. The structural and morphology studies were carried out by means of X-ray diffraction te...
Modeling self-sustaining waves of exothermic dissolution in nanometric Ni-Al multilayers
2016
Abstract The self-sustained propagating reaction occurring in nanometric metallic multilayers was studied by means of molecular dynamics (MD) and numerical modeling. We focused on the phenomenon of the exothermic dissolution of one metallic reactant into the less refractory one, such as Ni into liquid Al. The exothermic character is directly related to a negative enthalpy of mixing. An analytical model based on the diffusion-limited dissolution [1] coupled with heat transfer was derived to account for the main aspects of the process. Together, several microscopic simulations were carried out. The first series were set up to obtain all the parameters governing the process, including the heat…

Systematic and statistical uncertainties of the hilbert-transform based high-precision FID frequency extraction method.
2021
Abstract Pulsed nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is widely used in high-precision magnetic field measurements. The absolute value of the magnetic field is determined from the precession frequency of nuclear magnetic moments. The Hilbert transform is one of the methods that have been used to extract the phase function from the observed free induction decay (FID) signal and then its frequency. In this paper, a detailed implementation of a Hilbert-transform based FID frequency extraction method is described, and it is briefly compared with other commonly used frequency extraction methods. How artifacts and noise level in the FID signal affect the extracted phase function are derived analytical…
Spark Plasma Sintering à partir de poudres mécaniquement activées : compréhension des transitions de phase au cours d'un frittage réactif
2007
International audience; À " basse température " (entre 400 et 600 ◦C), l'oxydation de MoSi2 entraîne sa désintégration en poudre (phénomène de " peste "). De récents travaux ont montré que l'utilisation de MoSi2 dense et nano-organisé permettrait de ralentir ce phénomène de " peste ". Le défi de produire des matériaux denses et nano-organisés peut être relevé par le frittage " flash " réactif sous champ électrique à partir des poudres mécaniquement activées (Mechanically-Activated Spark Plasma Sintering, MASPS). Le contrôle de la composition et de la microstructure du composé intermétallique MoSi2 nécessite de déterminer les paramètres du frittage SPS (température, rampe de montée en tempér…

Explosive crystallization in amorphous CuTi thin films: a molecular dynamics study
2019
Abstract Molecular dynamic simulation was used to study mechanism of self-propagating waves of explosive crystallization (devitrification) in the CuTi metallic glass. Processes in thin rectangular samples composed of one to two million atoms were simulated and compared with experimental data. It was shown that the nucleation of primary crystalline clusters occurs homogeneously due to spontaneous fluctuations of atomic structure; the clusters not
Structural, optical, and luminescence properties of ZnO:Ga optical scintillation ceramic
2018
This paper discusses the characteristics of ZnO and ZnO:Ga ceramics fabricated by uniaxial hot pressing. The short-wavelength transmission limit of zinc oxide ceramics is in the 370-nm region; the long-wavelength limit is determined by the free-charge-carrier concentration and lies in the interval from 5 to 9 μm. The total transmittance of such ceramics in the visible and near-IR regions is about 70% when the sample is 0.5 mm thick. The luminescence spectrum is represented by a broad emission band with maximum at 580 nm, having a defect nature. The introduction of 0.03–0.1 mass % gallium into the zinc oxide structure inhibits grain growth and increases the free-charge-carrier concentration …
Multiple low-frequency broad band gaps generated by a phononic crystal of periodic circular cavity sandwich plates
2017
Abstract We propose a new type of phononic crystal (PnC) composed of a periodic alternation of circular cavity sandwich plates. In the low-frequency regime, the crystal can modulate the propagation of flexural waves. Governing equations are deduced basing on the classical theory of coupled extensional and flexural vibrations of plates. The dispersion relation of the infinite PnC is calculated by combining the transfer matrix method with Bloch theory. The dynamic response of the PnC with finite unit cells is further studied with finite element analysis. An experiment is carried out to demonstrate the performance of the PnC in vibration isolation. Numerical results and experimental results bo…
