• Hydrothermal synthesis of ATiO3 nanocrystalline compounds (A=Sr,Ca) doped with Fe2+, Ni2+, Mg2+, AP.R

  Hydrothermal synthesis of ATiO3 nanocrystalline...

  The process of addition of dopants has been widely used in the processing of new materials. The incorporation of atoms or ions of certain elements in a host matrix has led to obtain new materials with new properties and applications. In nanocrystalline materials, the process of doping has been considered of fundamental importance to stabilize certain crystalline phases and modify the ma... more

  This research project proposes to develop a new dimension in the relationship between the morphology and physical properties and possible applications related to the different morphologies of nanostructured CuAlO2 phase. We expect through this study clearly describe the process of formation of different morphologies of nanostructured CuAlO2 phase and thus provide the basic knowledge on ... more

• Synthesis and characterization of ZnO thin and thick films : application as gas sensors, BP.DR

  Synthesis and characterization of ZnO thin and ...

  The zinc oxide (ZnO)compound was the first material in the form of thin films being applied as gas sensor. Although a significant amount of work about the use of ZnO as a gas sensor has been published in recent years, the sensitivity and selectivity increasing with respect to detection of certain types of gases and their use at a temperature closer to ambient remain goals to be achieved... more

  Synthesis and characterization of Sr1-xAxTi1-yB...

  Perovskite materials include a wide group of compounds whose structure in its simplest form can be represented by chemical formula ABO3. One major advantage that the perovskite structure shows is the high degree of flexibility in accommodating a wide variety of atoms in A and B sites, allowing greater control of chemical and physical properties of the material and maintaining its basic ... more
