This study employs two steps to determine the optimal composition for CaxMg2-xSi2O6:yEu2+ phosphors. First, CaMgSi2O6:yEu2+ (y = 0.015, 0.020, 0.025, 0.030, 0.035) was used as the primary composition of specimens synthesised in a reducing atmosphere of 95% N2 + 5% H2 to investigate the effect of Eu2+ ions on the photoluminescence properties of each variant. The emission intensities of the entire photoluminescence excitation (PLE) and photoluminescence (PL) emission spectra of the CaMgSi2O6:yEu2+ phosphors initially increased as the concentration of the Eu2+ ions increased, peaking at y = 0.025. The cause of the variations across the entire PLE and PL spectra of all five CaMgSi2O6:yEu2+ phosphors was investigated. Because the CaMgSi2O6:0.025Eu2+ phosphor had the highest PLE and PL emission intensities, in the next step, CaxMg2-xSi2O6:...

An important goal for the design is to achieve wideband under a low supply voltage. The presented LNA design is a three-stage amplifier, which is based on a common gate stage and two common source stages. The common gate stage provides a wideband input matching. The two common source stages provide a flat gain. A forward body bias technique is used to reduce the supply voltage of the wideband LNA. The forward body bias, that is, the body-source voltage (VBS) is greater than 0 V, decreases the threshold voltage of the NMOS transistor, achieving the low voltage LNA. The supply voltage that is applied to the wideband LNA is only 0.6 V and the Power Consumption (PDC) is 9.24 mW. Simulation results indicate that the gain exceeds 10 dB and the Noise Figure (NF) is below 6.5 dB from 1.62 GHz to 7.02 GHz. The main advantage of the LNA is it's wideband with a low supply vol...

RF powers of 80 W and 70 W were used for GZO and pure In<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>, room temperature (RT) was used as deposition temperature, and the deposition time was changed from 15 min to 60 min. Structural, surface, electrical, and optical properties of IGZO thin films were investigated as a function of deposition time.

As the amounts of CuO equal 1 mol%, the sintering temperature is 975 °C and the piezoelectric parameters are d33 = 200 pC/N, g33 = 38 (10−3 Vm/N), d33 × g33 = 7600 (10−15 m2/N), kp = 0.38, Qm = 240, Pr = 18.93 μC/cm2 and EC = 8.75 kV/cm. The piezoelectric properties are changed to hard type and suitable for energy harvester with multilayer technology. The physical response mechanisms are suggested that the diffused phase transitions are enhanced, the Cu2+ ions substitute for the B-site ions with forming the Oxygen vacancies and the domain walls are pinning.

In liquid environment, Rayleigh surface waves have a displacement component perpendicular to the substrate where exist a compressional waves leading to a strong radiation loss [3]. For this reason, shear horizontal (SH) polarized waves are preferred because they do not couple elastically with ideal liquids and make no radiation loss [3-5]. SH modes can be converted into Love

In this paper, ZnO thin films doped with lithium (Li) and magnesium (Mg) were deposited on the 42-45V ST-cut quartz and 36-YX-LiTaO 3 substrates by RF magnetron sputtering technique. XRD, SEM, and AFM measurements investigated characteristics of the films. Under different conditions such as doping content, layer thickness, and substrate temperature, the phase velocity, temperature coefficient of frequency, electromechanical coupling coefficient and sensitivity of Love wave devices in ZnO/Quartz and ZnO/LiTaO 3 structures are presented. The maximum sensitivities of ZnO/Quartz and ZnO/LiTaO 3 are much higher than the SiO 2 /Quartz and SiO 2 /LiTaO 3 structures reported.

The diffracted angles in XRD profiles decreased because the Nb-sites were replaced by Cu and Ta ions, causing the expansion of lattice volume. SEM images showed smaller grain sizes at a low concentration of CuTa2O6, and grain sizes increased as the concentration of CuTa2O6 doping increased because of a liquid phase formed. When CuTa2O6 dopants were doped into NKN ceramics, the TO–T and Tc phase transitions decreased because the replacement of Ta5+ ions in the B-site. A high bulk density (4.595 g/cm3) and electromechanical coupling factor (kp, kt) were enhanced when CT dopants were doped into NKN ceramics. Moreover, the mechanical quality factor (Qm) also increased from 67 to 1550. NKN ceramics with sintering aid CuTa2O6 doping showed excellent piezoelectric properties: kp: 42.5%; kt: 49.1%; Qm: 1550; and d33: 96 pC/N.

Their structure evolutions and electrical properties were systematically investigated. A dc and ac conductivity analysis was conducted. It demonstrated that the probability of ZnO dopants entered the A and/or B-site of the perovskite structure, which affected the dielectric relaxation, activation energy, and piezoelectric properties. Experimental results showed that the tetragonality of the perovskite structure and electro-mechanical energy transformation ratio (k 2 value) were increased with increasing the ZnO contents for 0.1 x 0.5. As ZnO contents increased for 0.1 x 2, the diffused phase transition (DPT) characteristic was gradually disappeared. And, the ac activation energy calculated was also decreased due to the conduction mechanism. In addition, the frequency dependence of the ac conductivity was complied with the Jonscher power law, for x = 0.5, 1, and 1.5 at measured temperature.

The microstructure of NKNCx ceramics prepared using the MO method exhibited obviously inhomogeneous microstructure. In contrast, the BO method improved the compositional homogeneity as well as the electrical properties. A high Qm value of 2100 was obtained for NKNCx ceramics prepared using the BO method. The ceramics prepared using the BO method exhibited the formation of more oxygen vacancies, resulting in an increase in the internal bias field. The value for the activation energy of the samples supports the presence of oxygen vacancies. The bulk density, dielectric loss, kp, Qm, d33 and ɛ33T/ɛ0 of the NKNCx ceramics prepared using the BO method were 4.488 g/cm3, 0.15%, 41.5%, 2100, 95 pC/N and 280, respectively.

These laws, presented by Burfoot et al. and Eiras et al., have been proven to provide a better explanation, especially the dielectric diffusion phenomenon, of the incomplete DPT materials if compared with the models presented by Smolensky, and Isupov. However, the differences in fitting adaptability and the physical and mathematical meanings between these two laws have never been discussed. In this paper, we analyze these two laws in the (1−x)Pb(Fe2∕3W1∕3)-xPbTiO3 [(1−x)PFW-xPT] relaxor system using the statistical regression theory. We find that the laws of both Burfoot and Eiras demonstrate the same adaptability and provide smaller estimation bias on the samples than the models of Smolensky and Isupov, despite the complete or incomplete DPT characteristics.

The dielectric diffusion properties were investigated with the empirical law. The lattice structure was found to transfer from tetragonal to pseudocubic and the diffusion phase characteristic is more notable as decreasing PbTiO3 compositions or adding MnO additives. Moreover, the dielectric loss is improved and the space charge polarization effect is vanished as adding MnO additives in 0.7PFW-0.3PT compounds. We suggested it was probably due to the lead vacancy which is substituted by the manganese ions or the interstitial manganese ions intervene into the interstice between the positive and negative ions.

The low-field dielectric responses are investigated by using the empirical law, the Curie–Weiss law, the modified-Landau theory and the spin-glass model. Due to the IS method, the lattice structure and the grain structure of the samples are changed. Furthermore, the dielectric properties are evidently modified. It is suggested that the ordering degree of B-site cations is enhanced by using the IS synthesized method.

The X-ray diffraction detector, the diffusion phase transition model and the spin glass model are used to analyze the dielectric characteristics. According to our experimental results and the theoretical analysis, it is found that the structure is changed from cubic to tetragonal and the diffusion phase transition characteristics and the spin glass behavior is weakened as the sintering temperature increases. In conclusion, the normal ferroelectric characteristics are more obvious as the sintering temperature increases in this system.

It is also shown that the parameters in Eiras et al.'s model have better physical and mathematical meanings.

Based on our experimental results in (l-x)PFW-xPT relaxor system and the theoretically modelling results, it is shown that the parameter values in Burfoot et al.'s model and Eiras et al.'s model have not any variations after normalizing the maximum dielectric constant and shifting the temperature of the maximum dielectric constant Tm. It is also shown that the parameters in Eiras et al.'s model have better physical and mathematical meanings.

These laws, presented by Burfoot et al. and Eiras et al., have been proven to provide a better explanation, especially the dielectric diffusion phenomenon, of the incomplete DPT materials if compared with the models presented by Smolensky, and Isupov. However, the differences in fitting adaptability and the physical and mathematical meanings between these two laws have never been discussed. In this paper, we analyze these two laws in the ͑1−x͒Pb͑Fe 2/3 W 1/3 ͒-xPbTiO 3 ͓͑1−x͒PFW-xPT͔ relaxor system using the statistical regression theory. We find that the laws of both Burfoot and Eiras demonstrate the same adaptability and provide smaller estimation bias on the samples than the models of Smolensky and Isupov, despite the complete or incomplete DPT characteristics. When x is smaller, the samples tend to be complete DPT phenomenon and the estimation bias of Smolensky and IsupovЈs models is relatively smaller. However, when the samples show ferroelectric characteristics, the estimation bias will be increased.
