Tailoring the defects of sub-100 nm multipodal titanium nitride/oxynitride nanotubes for efficient water splitting performance by Eid, Kamel

“…XPS, XPS imaging, Auger electron spectra, and positron annihilation spectroscopy disclosed that the high nitridation rate induced the generation of a mixture of Ti-nitride and oxynitride with various vacancy-type defects, including monovacancies, vacancy clusters, and a few voids inside TiOxNTs. These defects decreased the bandgap energy to 2.4 eV, increased visible-light response, and enhanced the incident photon-to-current collection efficiency (IPCE) and the photocurrent density of TiONxNTs by nearly 8 times compared with TiO2NTs, besides a quick carrier diffusion at the nanotube/electrolyte interface. …”

Effect of sintering temperature of NBT–6BT lead-free ceramics on the structural, ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties by Slimani, Ahmed

“…It is found that the optimal ferroelectric and piezoelectric values were obtained at 1150 °C (P r = 27 µC/cm 2 , E c = 3.89 kV/mm and d 33 = 110 pC/N). According to these results, we suggest that 850 °C and 1150 °C can be considered as optimal calcination and sintering temperature in NBT-6BT ceramic, respectively.…”
