Structural and functional properties of sol-gel synthesized and microwave heated Pb0.8 Co0.2-zLazTiO3 (z = 0.05–0.2) nanoparticles

Multiferroic Nature of Microwave‐Processed and Sol‐Gel Synthesized NanoPb1‐xCoxTiO3 (x = 0.2–0.8) Ceramics

“…From the Figure , it can be observed that there exists an inversely proportional relationship between the parameters “D” & ε. Similar kinds of observations were reported in the literature . Besides, the lattice constants ( a = b ) and “c” were calculated for tetragonal reflection planes (Co of 0.2, 0.4, 0.6 contents) using a standard relation: 1/ d 2 = ( h 2 + k 2 )/ a 2 + l 2 / c 2 ), where “d” is the interplanar distance and (hkl) are the miller indices.…”

“…It has been a well‐known fact that the materials in nanoform acquire extensive significance across the scientific community viz., industrial, drug delivery, distinct sensors, photocatalysis, dielectric, ferroelectric, and piezoelectric applications . Nanofibers, carbon nanotubes, quantum dots, and quantum wires are being utilized in drug delivery system . That is, specifically the abovementioned nanoforms are widely applicable in tumor detection in the body, surgeries etc.…”

“…In view of this, many scientists prepared the PT nanoparticles via various methods such as sol‐gel, hydrothermal, and conventional bulk techniques . The topographic studies mentioned in the literature showed the flat stone– and cubic‐shaped lead titanate nanoparticles . Moreover, the doped lead titanate materials like lead zirconium titatante (PZT) and lead strontium titanate (PST) are extensively studied due to their considerable dielectrical and ferroelectric properties for charge stored capacitor, transducer, and actuator applications .…”

“…[2] The topographic studies mentioned in the literature showed the flat stone-and cubic-shaped lead titanate nanoparticles. [2] Moreover, the doped lead titanate materials like lead zirconium titatante (PZT) [4] and lead strontium titanate (PST) [5] are extensively studied due to their considerable dielectrical and ferroelectric properties for charge stored capacitor, transducer, and actuator applications. [1] Anyhow, the abovementioned properties will vary as the dopant/substituent is altered within the lead titanate system.…”

Magnetic and antimicrobial properties of cobalt‐zinc ferrite nanoparticles synthesized by citrate‐gel method

“…The reflection planes were indexed using the Miller indices (h k l) as shown in Figure 1. 27 In addition, the lattice constants (a, b, & c) were found to be equal (a = b = c) and the achieved value was observed to be increasing with the increase of zinc content from 0.838 to 0.849 nm. However, these reflection planes are in consistent with the standard JCPDS: 25-0283.…”
