Microwave-assisted solid synthesis and impedance spectroscopy of BICRVOX system

Dense La0.9Sr0.1Ga0.8Mg0.2O2.85 electrolyte for IT-SOFC's: Sintering study and electrochemical characterization

“…activation energy observed at low temperature is likely due to trapping of oxygen vacancies at low temperature. This is a classical behaviour for ionic conductors; it is observed for scandia doped zirconia [47,48] and for bismuth based oxide ion conductors, namely BIMEVOX compounds, [49][50][51] too. Although the analysis of impedance diagrams often focuses only on the resistive components, it is also interesting to observe the dependence of the capacitive component as a function of temperature.…”

Large-scale synthesis of bismuth sulfide nanorods by microwave irradiation

“…As a rapid, simple and effective heating method, microwave irradiation, with direct microwave heating of the molecular precursors, has been widely used in the synthesis of high-quality nanomaterials [34][35][36][37][38][39][40][41][42][43][44][45][46][47][48]. It can reduce the reaction time significantly and has the advantage of uniform heating without heating temperature gradient and lag effect [49][50][51].…”

Structural characterization and related properties of the stearate anions intercalated Ni–Al hydrotalcite-like compound prepared by the microwave crystallization

“…It is well known, however, that the prolonged reaction time leads to the increase of crystal sizes. In recent years, the microwave technique has been considered to overcome the above shortcomings [20,21]. The important characteristic of microwave heating is its volumetric effect which results in a much more uniform distribution of heat [22][23][24].…”
