Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 4Structural, Optical and Electrical Properties of Bi1.5zn0.92< Pyrochlore Ceramics(Univ Fed Sao Carlos, dept Engenharia Materials, 2021) Qasrawi, A. F.; Abdalghafour, Mays A.; Mergen, A.Herein, the structural, morphological, compositional, optical, electrical and dielectric properties of Bi1.5Zn0.92Nb1.5-6x/5WxO6.92 (BZN) solid solutions are reported. Tungsten substituted BZN ceramics which are fabricated by the solid state reaction technique exhibited solubility limits at substitution level below x=0.18. Remarkable engineering in the structural, optical, electrical and dielectric properties of the pyrochlore ceramics is achieved via W substitution. Namely, shrinkage in both of the lattice parameters and in the energy band gap accompanied with decrease in the microstrain, in the dielectric constant and in the electrical resistivity is observed upon increasing the W content below the solubility limit. The increase in the W content in the BZN ceramics enhances the densification of the pyrochlore and leads to higher light absorbability and larger crystallites growth. The temperature dependent electrical resistivity measurements has also shown that the pyrochlore exhibit thermal stability below 380 K.Article Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 14The Effect of Strain Rate on the Hydrogen Embrittlement Susceptibility of Aluminum 7075(Asme, 2023) Baltacioglu, Mehmet Furkan; Cetin, Baris; Bal, BurakThe effects of changing the strain rate regime from quasi-static to medium on hydrogen susceptibility of aluminum (Al) 7075 were investigated using tensile tests. Strain rates were selected as 1 s(-1) and 10(-3) s(-1) and tensile tests were conducted on both hydrogen uncharged and hydrogen charged specimens at room temperature. Electrochemical hydrogen charging method was utilized and the diffusion length of hydrogen inside Al 7075 was modeled. Material characterizations were carried out by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and microstructural observations of hydrogen uncharged and hydrogen charged specimens were performed by scanning electron microscope (SEM). As opposed to earlier studies, hydrogen embrittlement (HE) was more pronounced at high strain rate cases. Moreover, hydrogen enhanced localized plasticity (HELP) was the more dominant hydrogen embrittlement mechanism at slower strain rate but coexistence of hydrogen enhanced localized plasticity and hydrogen enhanced decohesion was observed at a medium strain rate. Overall, the current findings shed light on the complicated hydrogen embrittlement behavior of Al 7075 and constitute an efficient guideline for the usage of Al 7075 that can be subject to different strain rate loadings in service.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5Electrical Behavior of Pb1.83mg0.29< Pyrochlore Ceramics(Elsevier Science Bv, 2004) Mergen, A; Kayed, TSPb1.83Mg0.29Nb1.71O6.39 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.

The W-BZN band filters are prepared by the solid state reaction technique and subjected to X-ray diffraction (XRD) and impedance spectroscopy analyses. It was shown that the W-BZN filters can display negative capacitance effects accompanied with resonance-antiresonance oscillations. The calculations of the reflection coefficient parameter (S-11), the return loss (L-r) and the voltage standing wave ratios (VSWR) in the frequency domain of 0.01 to 1.80 GHz, has shown that the W-BZN device can perform as microwave cavities at two notch frequency values of 0.44 and 1.53 GHz. W-BZN devices can also be nominated as noise reducers and radiowave/microwave signal receivers suitable for telecommunication technology.
