Hyperfine interactions in the powder samples and nanostructured thin films of hafnium dioxide have been studied through the perturbed angular correlation (PAC) technique in order to perform a systematic study of the behavior of quadrupole parameters with the annealing temperature. The PAC measurements were performed with the probe. The probe was produced by the neutron irradiation in the IEA-R1 nuclear reactor of IPEN. Samples were prepared using sol-gel chemical process. The samples were analyzed by X-ray diffraction, SEM and EDS. The powder samples were all produced in the Laboratory of Hyperfine Interactions of IPEN, however the thin film with a thickness of was produced by the Lasers and Applications Center (CLA) of IPEN and the thin film of a thickness of were produced by the Hyperfine Interactions Laboratory of the Lisbon University. All the measurements were perform at room temperature and showed that the monoclinic phase is present in all the samples and their fraction tends to increase with increasing annealing temperature to which the samples were submitted. Some of the samples were doped with 3d elements Co and Fe in order to observe the possible existence of ferromagnetism at room temperature.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
