NdSr 2 RuCu 2 O x material has been prepared as polycrystalline powder by solid state reaction. The compound has been investigated by synchrotron x-ray powder diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The experimental results show that the average crystal structure is a disordered cubic perovskite with Nd and Sr cations occupying the same site and the same substitution is found for Cu and Ru atoms. A comparison between the crystal structure and morphology of this compound and the superconducting tetragonal GdSr 2 RuCu 2 O 8 is also discussed.

Layered potassium titanate is an important intermediate in preparing titania nanosheets. Three methods including method of potassium stearate, method of stearic acid and method of high-temperature solid-state reaction were used to produce layered potassium titanate in this paper. XRD and SEM were used to characterize the crystal structure and shape. The result of experiments showed that method of potassium stearate was the most effective way to prepare the layered potassium titanate.

GdVO4 was synthesized by solid state reaction at high temperature and characterized by XRD, UVvisible DRS, BET and SEM. XRD analysis of GdVO4 showed its structure was of tetragonal type. When GdVO4 was loaded with 0.3 wt% Pt, it showed the better photocatalytic activity for water splitting under simulated solar irradiation, and the amounts of the produced hydrogen in pure water were about 9.33 μmol under the irradiation of simulated solar for 6 h. Furthermore, photodegradation of Rhodamine B (Rh B ) on the samples were investigated under simulated solar irradiation.

During the last decades, layered structures have attracted particular and increasing interest due to the multitude of outstanding properties exhibited by their representatives. Particularly common among their archetypes, with a significant number of mineral and synthetic species structural derivatives, is that of litharge. In the current paper, we report the structural studies of two later rare-earth oxysulfates, [Ln2O2]SO4 (Ln = Dy, Ho), which belong indeed to the grandreefite family, and a novel compound [Bi2CuO3]SO4, which belongs to a new structure type and demonstrates the second example of Cu2+ incorporation into litharge-type slabs. Crystals of [Bi2CuO3]SO4 were obtained under high-pressure/high-temperature (HP/HT) conditions, whereas polycrystalline samples of [Ln2O2]SO4 (Ln = Dy, Ho) compounds were prepared via an exchange solid-state reaction. The crystal structure of [Bi2CuO3]SO4 is based on alternation of continuous [Bi2CuO3]2+ layers of edge-sharing OBi2Cu2 and OBi3Cu tetrahedra and sheets of sulfate groups. Cu2+ cations are in cis position in O5Bi2Cu2 and O6Bi2Cu2 oxocentered tetrahedra in litharge slab. The crystal structure of [Ln2O2]SO4 (Ln = Dy, Ho) is completely analogous to those of grandreefite and oxysulfates of La, Sm, Eu, and Bi.

A new barium copper niobate, Ba4CuNb3O12, was successfully prepared by high-temperature solid-state reaction in an inert atmosphere. Rietveld-refinement analysis of the XRD data of the compound showed that it has the 8H-type hexagonal perovskite structure with space group P63/mmc (#194), a = 5.830(1) Å, c = 19.123(1) Å, and chemical composition of Ba4Cu1.84Nb2.16O12-δ.

In order to investigate the fabrication of pyrochlore Gd2Zr2O7, Gd2O3 and ZrO2 were used as raw materials in the process. Pyrochlore Gd2Zr2O7 were fabricated by high temperature solid state reaction at 1100 – 1600 °C under atmospheric pressure for 72 h. XRD and SEM studies were exploited to characterize the crystal structure and microstructure of the synthetic samples. The results revealed that Gd2Zr2O7 with a single pyrochlore structure was fabricated successfully at 1500 °C. The microstructure of the sample was uniform and dense, and the grain size was in the range of 1 - 3 μm.
