Structure and Properties of Novel Pb(B’1/2Nb1/2)O3-PbTiO3 Binary Systems with High Piezoelectric Coupling
2000
The (l-x)Pb(Lu1/2Nb1/2)O3-xPbTiO3 (PLuNT) and (l-x)Pb(Er1/2Nb1/2)O3-xPbTiO3 (PErNT) binary systems have been originally synthesized. Pure lutecium niobate (PLuN) (x = 0) has a pronounced long-range order in the B-sublattice and an antiferroelectric to paraelectric phase transition at ~258°C. The phase structure of the PLuNT system, at room temperature, changes from a pseudomonoclinic (psd-M, space group Bmm2) to tetragonal (T, space group P4mm). The pseudomonoclinic phase extends over the 0 ≤ x ≤ 0.38 interval within which the monoclinic angle β proceeds a minimum near to 90° at x≅0.2. The morphotropic region covers over the interval x = 0.38–0.49, the concentration ratio psd-M:T≅l (the mor…
Study of the spontaneous relaxor to normal ferroelectric phase transition in la-doped lead titanate
2000
Abstract Highly lanthanum doped lead titanate ceramics exhibit relaxor properties and undergo on cooling a subsequent spontaneous macroscopic phase transition. The dielectric response is strongly affected by chemical (copper) doping and is found to become independent of the applied ac field for temperatures lower than the phase transition one.
Relaxation of Polarization at the Broad Phase Transition in Modified PMN Ferroelectric Ceramics
2013
The reported study is focused on effects of relaxation of polarization within the range of the broad phase transition at strong sinusoidal measuring fields in modified lead magnesium niobate ceramics. The obtained results reveal an essential thermal broadening of the ϵ′(E) spectra specific to relaxor ferroelectrics. Temperature dependence of ϵ′ eff (T) at medium fields shows two broad maximums – at Tm and at 40°C. On the basis of analysis of the experimental data, admixture of lithium is suggested to promote formation of domains in lead magnesium niobate ceramics.
Electroluminescence of (Pb0.91La0.09)(Zr0.65Ti0.35)O3 relaxor ceramics
2013
Abstract Lanthanum doped lead zirconate titanate (PLZT) relaxor ceramics with (Pb 0.91 La 0.09 )(Zr 0.65 Ti 0.35 )O 3 composition exhibit a repolarization induced by electroluminescence (EL) with a pronounced discrete character of emission. It is established that this behavior is related to the reorientation of nanodimensional polar regions in a strong pulsed electric field in the vicinity of a smeared phase transition. The time and temperature dependences of the EL intensity are studied.
Specifics of polarisation switching in PbNi1/3Nb2/3O3–PbTiO3–PbZrO3 ferroelectric ceramics
2004
Abstract The growing interest in disordered relaxor ferroelectrics is due to unusual properties mainly related to the existence of broad phase transitions characteristic to the systems. The effects of bias field on the dielectric response and polarisation switching are studied in the 0.5 PbNi 1/3 Nb 2/3 O 3 – x PbTiO 3 –(0.5− x ) PbZrO 3 system at different PbTiO 3 :PbZrO 3 ratio. Thermal behaviour of normalised remnant polarisation P r / P max of compositions with content of lead titanate x =0.33 and x =0.35 at frequency 0.1 Hz and different values of field E o are measured. Results of measured polarisation and depolarisation currents are compared with characteristics of polarisation switc…
Isomorphous ion substitutions and order-disorder phenomena in highly electrocaloric lead-scandium tantalate solid solutions
1996
Abstract The authors discuss the physical background of the electrocaloric effect in PST ceramics and its solid solutions. The most important contribution to the electrocaloric effect is due to field-induced Fm3m→R3m phase transition in the case of high long range ordering degree of B-ions in the perovskite structure ABO3.
Comparative studies of ferroelectric and magnetic phase transitions in Pb(Fe1/2Nb1/2)O3-PbMO3 (M-Ti, Zr) multiferroic solid solutions
2015
Some peculiar features of magnetic x,T-phase diagram of (1-x)PbFe1/2Nb1/2O3- xPbTiO3 system at x ≈ 0.1 have been ascribed previously to the change of the lattice symmetry from rhombohedral to tetragonal or to the decrease of the lattice parameter with x. We carried out structural, dielectric, magnetization, and Mossbauer studies of (1-x)PbFe1/2Nb1/2O3-xPbZrO3 system, where the symmetry remains rhombohedral, while the lattice parameter increases with x. However, the magnetic x,T-phase diagram of (1-x)PbFe1/2Nb1/2O3-xPbZrO3 appeared to be very similar to that of (1-x) PbFe1/2Nb1/2O3-xPbTiO3. Anomalies of composition dependence of magnetic phase transition temperatures at x ≈ 0.1 are supposed …
Optimization of anti-proliferative activity using a screening approach with a series of bis-heterocyclic G-quadruplex ligands
2013
Abstract Using a phenotypic screening and SAR optimization approach, a phenyl-bis-oxazole derivative has been identified with anti-proliferative activity, optimized with the use of a panel of cancer cell lines. The lead compound was synthesized by means of a short and effective two-step synthesis using Pd-catalyzed direct arylation. The compound stabilizes several quadruplex DNA sequences including a human telomeric DNA and one from the promoter of the HSP90 gene, although the structure–activity relationships of the series are not obviously related to the quadruplex binding.
La vida cotidiana de los vecinos de Manila a través de sus testamentos e inventarios de bienes
2019
With the general objective indicated in its title, this work tries to highlight relevant aspects in the continuity of the Spanish domain in the Philippines, dependent on the maintenance of the Spanish capital. The inevitable selection of topics has lead the preferences of this work towards the residents collaboration to defend the city, the conversion of many of them into traders of exotic products and singular slaves owners, and their collaboration to an incredible miscegenation due to the ethnic variety. On the other hand, to follow the footsteps of the first generation of residents in Manila, at the end of the 16th century and during the 17th century, this work gives us some information …
Tunable luminescent lead bromide complexes
2020
Lead halides are used extensively to prepare perovskite-based devices but it is less known that lead halides can also form luminescent complexes in solvents. Using polyethylene glycol as a solvent, a lead bromide complex with a photoluminescence quantum yield over 20% is obtained and the photoluminescence peak can be shifted around 50 nm with different alkylammonium bromides.
