BaTiO3 is one of the most extensively studied ferroelectric materials. The use of BaTiO3 for piezoelectric applications is, however, limited due to the small piezoelectric coefficient of the room temperature-stable tetragonal phase. Furthermore, research on BaTiO3 for integrated optics applications remains sparse. In this work Zr-, Hf-, and KNb- doped BaTiO3 materials were prepared in a composition range that stabilizes the rhombohedral phase. These materials were prepared as bulk polycrystals using a standard solid-state reaction technique in order to test the piezoelectric and dielectric properties. Some compositions were then chosen for thin film deposition. The films were deposited using pulsed laser deposition on MgO and SOI substrates. Growth orientation, remnant strain and optical properties were then measured.

  • Of the Periodic Table
    of the Periodic Table teacher notes Give your students a visual introduction to the families of the periodic table! This product includes eight mini- posters, one for each of the element families on the main group of the periodic table: Alkali Metals, Alkaline Earth Metals, Boron/Aluminum Group (Icosagens), Carbon Group (Crystallogens), Nitrogen Group (Pnictogens), Oxygen Group (Chalcogens), Halogens, and Noble Gases. The mini-posters give overview information about the family as well as a visual of where on the periodic table the family is located and a diagram of an atom of that family highlighting the number of valence electrons. Also included is the student packet, which is broken into the eight families and asks for specific information that students will find on the mini-posters. The students are also directed to color each family with a specific color on the blank graphic organizer at the end of their packet and they go to the fantastic interactive table at www.periodictable.com to learn even more about the elements in each family. Furthermore, there is a section for students to conduct their own research on the element of hydrogen, which does not belong to a family. When I use this activity, I print two of each mini-poster in color (pages 8 through 15 of this file), laminate them, and lay them on a big table. I have students work in partners to read about each family, one at a time, and complete that section of the student packet (pages 16 through 21 of this file). When they finish, they bring the mini-poster back to the table for another group to use.

  • Paediatric Barium Swallow/Meal Information for Parents and Carers Your Doctor Has Referred Your Child for a Barium Swallow/Meal to Look at Their Food Pipe and Stomach
    Oxford University Hospitals NHS Trust Paediatric Barium Swallow/Meal Information for parents and carers Your doctor has referred your child for a barium swallow/meal to look at their food pipe and stomach. We have written this information leaflet to help you and your child to understand this test. We hope it answers some of the questions you both may have and helps you and your child to feel more prepared and relaxed. page 2 What is a barium swallow/meal? A barium swallow/meal uses a special liquid to allow the X-ray doctor (radiologist) to see your child’s oesophagus (food pipe or gullet), stomach and the first part of their intestines using an X-ray camera. What does this test involve? Your child will be asked to drink a special drink called barium. This is a white liquid with a chalky texture. It is not radioactive but is used as it shows up well on X-ray images. Your child will need to drink the barium whilst lying on a couch with the X-ray camera over their tummy (about 75cm away). They may need to change position, so you will be asked to stay close to them at all times to make sure they are safe. If your child is able to, they will usually be asked to drink using a straw so that they can stay lying down. If they are not able to use a straw they can drink the barium from a bottle or beaker. If they are currently being fed through a nasogastric (NG) tube, we will use that to give them the barium.

  • Hydrothermal Synthesis of Titanate Nanotubes Followed by Electrodeposition Process
    Korean J. Chem. Eng., 23(6), 1037-1045 (2006) SHORT COMMUNICATION Hydrothermal synthesis of titanate nanotubes followed by electrodeposition process Gil-Sung Kim, Young-Soon Kim, Hyung-Kee Seo and Hyung-Shik Shin† Thin Film Technology Laboratory, School of Chemical Engineering, Chonbuk National University, Jeonju 561-756, Korea (Received 27 January 2006 • accepted 4 July 2006) Abstract−Titanate nanotubes were synthesized by hydrothermal process using commercial titania nanoparticles. The experiments were carried out as a function of reaction time, temperature, and NaOH concentration. Furthermore, the titanate nanotube film was fabricated on the Si substrate using electrodeposition method with 60 V and at room tem- perature. The specimens were investigated by using various techniques such as field-emission scanning electron micro- scopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Raman Spectroscopy, and X- ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The formation of sodium titanate nanotubes was affected strongly by the varia- tion in all parameters. The best conditions for the titanate nanotubes were found to be a reaction temperature of 150 oC, 10 M NaOH concentration, and reaction time of 48 hr. Under the best conditions, the resulting titanate nanotubes did not contain any remains of starting material, namely P25 nanoparticles, and also the resulting nanotubes had very smooth morphology with a diameter of ~10 nm and length extending up to several micrometers without presence of any bundle- like structures. The washing of sodium titanate nanotubes with HCl solution leads to conversion into protonic titanate nanotubes via ion exchange reaction. The subsequent sintering of the titanate nanotubes renders dehydration of inter- layered OH groups, thereby leading to precipitation of anatase phase.

  • Synthesis of Barium Titanate from Titanyl Acylate Precursor by Sol-Precipitate Method Thandar Win', Kyaw Naing2 and Khin Mar Tunj
    MM 1000115 Jour. Myan. Acad. Arts & Sc. 2008 Vol. VI. No. 1 Synthesis of Barium Titanate from Titanyl Acylate Precursor by Sol-precipitate Method Thandar Win', Kyaw Naing2 and Khin Mar TunJ Abstract Nanometersize barium titanates (BaTiO3:BT) powders can be obtained by sol-precipitate method in the presence of polyoxyethylene (20) sorbiton monooleate (Tween-80) as a polymeric surface modifier in a strong alkaline solution (pH > 13) . FT-IR, TG/ DTA, SEM and XRD were used to investigate the effects of the surfactant influence on the morphology of the obtained BaTiO3 powders. With adding surfactant, a slower rate of hydroiyzatibn is observed and the rate of condensation is slower. The addition of Tween-80 surfactant in general leads to the formation of smaller particle size of BaTiO3 (70-100 nm). Without adding surfactant, larger particle size of BaTiO3 (100-200 nm) was obtained. The nanometersize BaTiO3 powders were readily sintered at 1000-1200°C. Raman-active modes of tetragonal phase BT were detected from Raman spectra of BaTiO3 between 800°C to 1200°C. Key words: Barium Titanates, sol-precipitate method, Tween-80, tetragonal-phase, Raman Spectra Introduction Barium titanate crystallizes in a perovskite structure is an important electronic ceramic. Barium titanate (BaTi(>3 : BT) naoncrystals have great advantages over micrometer size ceramic powders when the thickness of a single ceramic layer decreases to less than 2fxm. Low temperature synthesis has provided on exciting possibility for high purity, homogeneous, and ultrafine BaTiO3 nonoparticles. BT nonocrystals have been synthesized by Using a hydrothermal method, sol-gel processing, the oxalate route, microwave heating, a micro-emulsion process and a polymeric precursor method.

While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image.
