Article Citation Count: 5Electrical behavior of Pb1.83Mg0.29Nb1.71O6.39 pyrochlore ceramics(Elsevier Science Bv, 2004) Kayed, Tarek Said; Kayed, TS; Department of Electrical & Electronics EngineeringPb1.83Mg0.29Nb1.71O6.39 pyrochlore was produced via a simple partial oxalate method. It was examined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Single phase, belonging to the cubic pyrochlore structure, with a lattice parameter of a = 10.60125 +/- 0.001 Angstrom and grain size that varies from 5 to 10 mum was obtained. The electrical properties were measured at different temperatures in the range 15-320 K without and with applied magnetic field of 1.4 T. Current-voltage characteristics data were fitted to a power law expression V=I-beta(T) in which the exponential parameter beta takes values around 1 at all temperatures except at 300 K. Resistance starts from 3.3 x 10(10) Omega at 15 K and increases gradually to 4.8 x 10(10) Omega at 240 K. It drops to approximately 1.2 x 10(10) Omega at 300 K, after which it increases again to around 1.6 x 10(10) Omega at 320 K. (C) 2004 Elsevier B.V.

They were examined by x-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. Single phase, belongs to the cubic pyrochlore structure, with a lattice parameter of 10.442 Angstrom and grain size that varies from 16 to 20 mum was obtained. The electrical properties were measured at different temperatures in the range 15-330 K under different applied magnetic fields up 1.4 T. In our measurements for Hall coefficient, Hall resistivity, and mobility; we noticed an anomalous behavior at two temperatures (around 250 and 310 K) which was supported by the I-V measurements (double transition of the slope of I-V characteristics (beta) at the same temperatures). This was discussed in terms of polarization phenomenon and mixed ionic-electronic conduction. (C) 2003 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Inexpensive starting materials of kaolinite, calcium carbonate and silica were used for anorthite ceramic production. Colemanite (2CaO.3B(2)O(3).5H(2)O) was added into the mixtures and the effects of colemanite upon the transformation towards anorthite and on the densification were investigated between 900-1400 degreesC. Single phase anorthite ceramic formed at lower temperatures in boron containing mixtures. Boron containing powder compacts were sintered above 90% theoretical density at 1350 degreesC.Article Citation Count: 42Synthesis and characterization of Mg2B2O5(Pergamon-elsevier Science Ltd, 2005) Qasrawı, Atef Fayez Hasan; Kayed, TS; Kayed, Tarek Said; Gürü, M; Department of Electrical & Electronics EngineeringMagnesium borate of the form Mg2B2O5 has been prepared and its structural and thermal properties were studied using X-ray diffraction and differential thermal analysis. An investigation of the electrical and optical properties of Mg2B2O5 system has been carried out. The electrical resistivity of the sample was measured in the temperature range of 170-400 K. The data analysis revealed an extrinsic nature of the conductivity with two impurity levels located at 0.13 and 0.71 eV in the temperature ranges of 170-230 K and 240-400 K, respectively. The optical transmission and reflection was recorded at 300 K in the incident photon energy range of 3.0-6.0 eV. The absorption coefficient data analysis revealed an indirect optical energy band gap of 4.73 eV. In addition, two impurity levels located at 3.43, and 4.49 eV were observed in the absorption spectra. (c) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
