    Structural investigation of high-Tc superconductor EuBa2Cu3Oy by microRaman spectroscopy

    No full text
    Polycrystalline EuBa2Cu3Oy (EuBCO) samples with various oxygen contents (y 6.25, 6.38 and 6.8) have been analysed by means of microRaman spectroscopy. The usual Raman features of REBa2Cu3Oy high temperature superconductors (RE Y, Eu, Sm, Er1⁄4) have been con®rmed also for EuBCO. A correlation between the crystal structure and the conductivity properties as a function of the oxygen content has been established by studying in detail the features of the different Raman spectra. In particular, the analysis of the peak pro®les of lattice vibrations involving oxygen atoms provides important information to understand the anomalous superconducting properties found in the sample with y 6.38. In addition, the appearance in the superconducting samples of a new mode centred at 223 cm21 may be correlated to ordering phenomena which have been called to justify the conductivity results

    Indexed powder patterns of the ferric molybdate in its monoclinic and orthorhombic forms are given

    Kinetics of BaBr2·2H2O Dehydration: Comparison Between Isothermal and non-Isothermal Methods

    No full text
    For the reaction of dehydration of BaBr2 with a different content of water molecules, a comparison was made between the experimental non-isothermal alpha vs time curves and those calculated on the basis of a isothermal study. For low heating rates, the two data sets are in good agreement

    β-Aluminas and Water: A Comparison of Mixed Li - Na and Pure Li and Na β - Aluminas

    No full text
    TG, DSC and X-Ray measurements were made to characterize the water absorption process by Li (50%) - Na (50%) beta alumina. The equilibrium water content, dehydration enthalpies and lattice parameter values have been determined and compared with those previously obtained for pure Li and Na beta-aluminas
