Ultrafine ceria powders via glycine-nitrate combustion

Synthesis and Characterization of Gadolinium Oxide Nanocrystallites

“…A great deal of interest in gadolinium oxide exists because of its physicochemical properties, such as the crystallographic stability up to temperatures of 2325 C, high mechanical strength, excellent thermal conductivity, and a wide band optical gap [4]. Generally, nanoparticles of lanthanide oxides can be prepared using a variety of methods, such as homogeneous precipitation [5], thermal decomposition [6], combustion method [7], microemulsion techniques [8], hydrothermal crystallization [9], spray pyrolysis [10], sol-gel [11], sonochemical methods [12], and other methods [13]. Most often nanocrystallites of lanthanide oxides are prepared through calcination methods using a suitable precursor [14].…”

Low temperature synthesis, and magnetic and magnetotransport properties of a (La1 xLux)0.67Ca0.33MnO3(0 x 0.12) system

“…The (La 1-x Lu x ) 0.67 Ca 0.33 MnO 3 samples with x = 0.0 to 0.12 were synthesized using the auto-combustion method 23 . …”

Synthesis and characterization of nanometric strontium-doped ceria solid solutions via glycine-nitrate procedure

“…6(a)] is the result of large amount of gases created during the combustion, as is the same feature of previous studies. 20)25) It can be seen that the ash is open structure consisting of nearly spherical clusters made of clearly visible primary particles. As Fig.…”

“…Most of them were synthesis of pure ceria, 20) gadoliniadoped, 21),23) samaria-doped ceria 22) or co-doping of them into ceria. 25) In this study, the GNP was used to obtain Sr-doped ceria, following our previous study.…”
