Nickel ferrite nanoparticles, with sizes lying within the superparamagnetic ferrimagnetic transition region, were synthesized using the solvothermal and the thermal decomposition method. Iron and nickel precursors as well as a variety of surfactants were used at adequate proportions to achieve structural and morphological, and hence magnetic tuning of the nanoparticles. X-ray diffraction and electron...
The crystallization behavior of amorphous Ni-P nanoparticles produced by liquid pulsed-discharge was studied by using in situ high temperature XRD at beamline 4B9A of Beijing Synchrotron Radiation Facility. Transmission electron microscope (TEM) was used to observe the morphology and Inductively Coupled Plasma-Atomic Emission Spectrometry (ICP-AES) was used to analyze the chemical composition of the...
It has been found that metal nanopowders produced by wire electrical explosion have stored energy, which is higher than the standard heat of melting. Continuing studies on stored energy the influence of electrons flow (accelerator ELU-4) on iron and nickel nanopowders has been investigated in the paper. It was found that the thermal effect of oxidation for iron nanopowders after exposure increased...
Possibilities of the method of obtaining metal powders by means of thermal decomposition (or reduction) of their compounds during heating in a medium of a high-boiling organic liquid were investigated. A distinguishing feature of the approach proposed is the use of benzyl alcohol as the liquid medium, while the initial metal carboxylates with different lengths of the methylene chain were formates,...
We report thermoelectric characterization of Bi2-xSbxTe3 (x = 0.5, 1.0, and 1.5) synthesized by a solvothermal method using DMF as solvent. For Bi2Te3, the size of the edge and thickness of the hexagonal nanoplatelets are 200-250 nm and 20-25 nm, respectively. Bi2Te3 nanosheets appear to grow epitaxially from the surface of the Te tubes, which forms in the first step and acts as the template for the...
Bulk nanostructured (Bi,Sb)2Te3 compounds and GeTe based amorphous/nanocrystal composites have been successfully fabricated by the combined hydrothermal/hot-pressing and quenching/annealing methods, respectively. The (Bi,Sb)2Te3 nanopowders synthesized by hydrothermal method exhibit a hollow-like structure. After hot-pressing, the nanoscale grains varying from tens to hundreds of nanometers were found...
Nanostructuring is one of the effective approaches to lower the thermal conductivity of materials. Nanostructured skutterudite-related compounds CoSb3, Fe0.5Ni0.5Sb3, Fe0.25Ni0.25Co0.5Sb3 and Te-doped CoSb3 were synthesized by a solvothermal route. The bulk materials were prepared by hot pressing or spark plasma sintering from the solvothermally synthesized nanopowders. The thermal conductivity values...
