Liu, Qiang 21 March 2013 (has links)
Les diverses perovskites de strontium-fer présentent de très fortes corrélations entre la structurecristalline et les phénomènes d’ordre de lacunes d’oxygènes, de charge, de spin et d’orbitales. Danscette thèse, nous avons réalisé une étude systématique des relations entre les ordres de charges etles ordres de spins selon les différents environnements cristallographiques rencontrés pour lescations Fe3+ et Fe4+ dans la phase Sr4Fe4O11, pour le cation Fe3+ dans les phases Sr3Fe2O6 et Sr2Fe2O10et pour le cation Fe2+ dans la phase SrFeO2. Les synthèses des phases polycristallines furent réaliséesvia des voies « solide » ou « sol-gel » en complément de la synthèse de cristaux préparés à l’aide d’unfour à image à fusion de zone verticale pour les phases Sr4Fe4O11 et Sr2Fe2O10. La qualité cristalline etchimique des oxydes fut contrôlée par diffraction de rayons X sur poudre et spectroscopieMössbauer alors que l’étude de la structure électronique de chaque phase a été réalisée à l’aide despectroscopie d’absorption de rayons X. Finalement, les structures magnétiques des phases Sr3Fe2O6et Sr4Fe4O11 sont aussi présentées. / The relationship of the crystallographic, magnetic, and electronic structure have long been of highinterest in research. Strontium iron oxides have structural, charge, spin, and orbital degrees offreedom, and thus give rich information to study for the condensed matter scientists. In this thesis,we have systematically studied the strontium iron oxides based on the freedom of the iron charge:Fe3+ and Fe4+ mixed valence compound SrFeO2,75 , Fe3+ compound Sr3Fe2O6 and SrFeO2,5 with differentcoordination around Fe3+ and Fe2+ compound SrFeO2. The synthesis of the polycrystalline compoundsare through either solid state reaction or sol-gel method. Single crystals of SrFeO2,75 and SrFeO2,5have been prepared by floating zone furnace. The purity of all the compounds is checked by lab x-raydiffraction and Mössbauer spectroscopy. Electronic structures have been studied by x-ray absorptionspectroscopy for all these compounds.

Síntese de PbTiO3, PbZrO3 e Pb(Ti,Zr)O3 via sol-gel polimérico e produção de filmes finos por spin-coating e sua caracterização microestrutural e de propriedades fotofísicas

Gruginskie, Natasha January 2015 (has links)
Este trabalho apresenta a síntese dos plumbatos de estrutura tipo perovskita (ABO3) PbTiO3, PbZrO3 e Pb(Ti,Zr)O3 por rota sol-gel não aquosa, bem como da produção de filmes finos dos precursores desses compostos sobre substratos de polimetilmetacrilato. Os compostos PbTiO3, PbZrO3 e Pb(Ti,Zr)O3 foram preparados e em seguida caracterizados pela técnica de difração de raios X (DRX) e por análise termogravimétrica (ATG). A molhabilidade entre a solução precursora e o substrato foi avaliada pela medida do ângulo de contato. A deposição dos filmes sobre substratos de PMMA foi feita pelo método de spin-coating, e os filmes produzidos foram caracterizados por espectrofotometria UV-Visível, elipsometria espectral e microscopia eletrônica de varredura (MEV). Os compostos preparados apresentaram a fase perovskita quando tratados a 750°C, no entanto, com tratamentos térmicos a temperaturas abaixo do ponto de fusão do PMMA (120ºC) ainda há alta quantidade de matéria orgânica, o que impossibilita a verificação clara das fases cristalinas. A solução não aquosa do sol-gel apresentou-se molhante ao substrato, o que valida a utilização do método de spin-coating para deposição dos filmes. Os filmes obtidos apresentam transparência na faixa de luz visível, elevada uniformidade na espessura e presença de trincas cuja quantidade aumentou com o número de camadas de deposição. Os valores de índice de refração variaram de 1,7 e 2,0, sendo crescente na ordem PbZrO3, Pb(Ti,Zr)O3 e PbTiO3. Os valores de energia de band gap óptico determinados com base nos valores de transmitância e espessura dos filmes foram entre 3,3 e 3,4 eV para todos os plumbatos investigados. / This work describes the synthesis of plumbates of perovskite-type structure (ABO3) PbTiO3, PbZrO3 and Pb(Ti,Zr)O3 by non-aqueous sol-gel route as well as the production of thin films of these compounds precursors on polymethyl methacrylate substrates. The compounds PbTiO3, PbZrO3 and Pb(Ti,Zr)O3 were prepared and then characterized by of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The wettability between the precursor solution and the substrate was evaluated by measuring the contact angle. The deposition of the films on PMMA substrates were made by spin-coating method, and the produced films were characterized by UV-Visible, spectral ellipsometry and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The compounds had the perovskite phase when treated at 750 °C, however, with thermal treatments at temperatures below the melting point of PMMA (120 ° C) there is still high amount of organic matter, making it impossible to clear verification of crystalline phases. The non-aqueous sol-gel showed up wetting to the substrate, which validates the use of the spin-coating method for films deposition. The obtained films exhibit transparency in the visible light range, high uniformity in thickness and presence of cracks whose amount increased with the number of deposited layers. The refractive index values ranged from 1.7 to 2.0, and increasing in the order PbZrO3, Pb(Ti,Zr)O3 and PbTiO3. The optical band gap energy values based on the transmittance values and thickness of the films were between 3.3 and 3.4 eV for all investigated plumbates.

No. of bitstreams: 1 6698.pdf: 13275782 bytes, checksum: 2c4bbd5a5c838552f7cbf82ce709e116 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2015-03-09 / Financiadora de Estudos e Projetos / In this work, the lead-free ceramic powders of xBi0,5Na0,5TiO3 - (0,7186 - 0,7143x) Bi0,5K0,5TiO3 - (2814 - 2857x) BaTiO with x = 0,8200; 0,8625; 0,8792, 0,9126 and 0,9300 (BNBK1000x) were prepared by the solid state reaction method, followed by conventional densification. The ceramic bodies showed high density, which was higher than 95% in obtained samples. For the all ceramics were performed structural, micro structural, electric and anelastic characterizations. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis indicated the formation of the complex perovskite type crystaline structure for all compositions analyzed without the presence of spurious phases. By the structural refinement by the Rietveld method of XRD data and by Raman spectroscopy were observed that for BNBK912 and BNBK930 compositions, at room temperature, the predominant symmetry is rhombohedral (R3c), while the BNBK820 composition exhibits a tetragonal crystalline symmetry (P4mm). For the BNBK879 and BNBK826 compositions presented a mixture of phases, possibly with rhombohedral and tetragonal symmetry, reaveling the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) of this system. The microstructure of BNBK1000x ceramics was investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), where the morphology grains with irregular sizes and shapes, where the increased levels of K+ and Ba2+ ions suppressed the growth of the grains. The characterizations by Raman spectroscopy at room temperature showed broad Raman modes, due to the chemical and/or structural disorder related to the substitution of elements Bi and Na for Ba and K. The ferroelectric characterizations at room temperature of the BNBK1000x ceramics showed that all compositions studied are ferroelectric. Through the comparison among the measurements of electrical impedance and mechanical spectroscopy, was possible to identify the different structural and electric phase transitions that were employed in the construction of a pseudodiagram of phases for the BNBK1000x compositions. / Neste trabalho, os pós-cerâmicos livres de chumbo xBi0,5Na0,5TiO3 - (0,7186 - 0,7143x) Bi0,5K0,5TiO3 - (2814 - 2857x) BaTiO com x = 0,8200; 0,8625; 0,8792, 0,9126 e 0,9300 (BNBK1000x) foram obtidos através do método de reação de estado sólido, seguido por densificação convencional. Os corpos cerâmicos obtidos apresentaram elevada densificação, sendo maior que 95% nas amostras produzidas. Para todas as cerâmicas foram realizadas caracterizações estruturais, microestruturais, elétricas e anelásticas. As análises por difração de raios-X (DRX) indicaram a formação da estrutura cristalina tipo perovkista complexa para todas as composições analisadas, sem a presença de fases espúrias. O refinamento estrutural, pelo método de Rietveld, dos resultados de DRX e os resultados de espectroscopia Raman apontam que para as composições BNBK930 e BNBK912 a simetria predominante em temperatura ambiente é romboédrica (R3c), enquanto que a composição BNBK820 apresenta a simetria cristalina tetragonal (P4mm). Já as composições BNBK879 e BNBK862 apresentaram uma mistura de fases, possivelmente com simetrias romboédrica e tetragonal, evidenciando o contorno de fase morfotrópico (CFM) deste sistema. A microestrutura das cerâmicas de BNBK1000x foi investigada por microscopia eletrônica de varredura (MEV), onde a morfologia apresentada pelas diferentes composições estudadas possuíam grãos com tamanhos e formatos irregulares, sendo que o aumento dos teores dos íons de K+ e Ba2+ inibiram o crescimento dos grãos. A caracterização por espectroscopia Raman, em temperatura ambiente, apresentou modos Raman amplos, mostrando um elevado grau de desordem química e/ou estrutural devido à substituição dos elementos Bi e Na por Ba e K. As caracterizações ferroelétricas, também em temperatura ambiente das cerâmicas de BNBK1000x mostraram que todas as composições estudadas possuem propriedades ferroelétricas. Através da comparação entre as medidas de impedância elétrica e anelástica, levando em consideração as caracterizações estruturais e ferroelétricas com temperatura, foi possível identificar diferentes transições de fase estruturais e elétricas, que foram empregadas na construção de um pseudo-diagrama de fases para as composições de BNBKx.

Développement de membranes céramiques à architecture optimisée pour l'oxycombustion / Development of ceramic membrane with optimised design for oxycombustion process

Reichmann, Mickaël 05 December 2014 (has links)
L’étude de matériaux conducteur mixtes (ionique et électronique) connait un intérêt croissant depuis plusieurs années dans le domaine de l’énergie, principalement lié au développement des électrodes pour les piles à combustible de type SOFC (Solid Oxide Fuel Cell) ou des réacteurs catalytiques membranaires (CMR) pour le réformage du méthane de synthèse ou pour le procédé d’oxycombustion. Dans ce dernier cas, la réalisation de membranes conductrices mixtes de structure pérovskite du type La1-xAxFe1-yByO3- permet la séparation de l’oxygène de l’air à haute température (900°C) avec une sélectivité quasiment infinie sans circuit électrique extérieur. Les mécanismes limitant le transport de l’oxygène à travers la membrane ont été étudiés à l’aide d’un dispositif de caractérisation original composé d’électrodes, permettant la mesure du potentiel électrochimique de l’oxygène à la surface de la membrane. L’influence de la substitution du cation en site A puis en site B sur les propriétés de semi-perméabilité à l’oxygène a été étudiée au sein des matériaux pérovskites La0,5A0,5Fe0,7B0,3O3-(A = Ca, Sr, Ba et B = Al, Co, Cu, Ga, Mg, Mn, Ni, Sn, Ti, Zn). Les résultats obtenus avec cette technique originale nous ont permis de mieux cerner les mécanismes limitant le transport d’oxygène à travers la membrane. L’influence de la microstructure de la membrane sur les propriétés de semi-perméabilité à l’oxygène a également été étudiée et un modèle d’évolution des propriétés de semi-perméabilité en fonction de la microstructure a été proposé. Cette compréhension des mécanismes de transport nous a permis d’orienter les recherches vers l’élaboration de nouvelles architectures de membranes. / Since few years, the study of mixed conducting materials (ionic and electronic) knows an increasing interest in the energy area, especially with the development of electrodes for Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) or Catalytic Membrane Reactors (CMR) for the methane reforming in synthesis gas or for oxyfuel process. In this latter case, the mixed conductor membrane with La1-xAxFe1-yByO3- perovskite structure allows the separation of oxygen from air at high temperature (900°C) with a quasi-infinite selectivity without outside electric circuit, with an interesting economical cost. The oxygen transport mechanisms through the membrane are studied thanks to an original electrodes system composed of a zirconia point micro-electrode and a metallic reference electrode. This system allows the measurement of the oxygen electrochemical potential at the membrane surface. The influence of cation substitution in A-site then B-site in La0.5A0.5Fe0.7B0.3O3-(A = Ca, Sr, Ba and B = Al, Co, Cu, Ga, Mg, Mn, Ni, Sn, Ti, Zn) perovskite materials has been studied. The results obtained by this original system led us to a better understanding and a identification of the rate determining step of oxygen transport mechanism through the membrane. The influence of the microstructure on oxygen semi-permeation has been studied and an evolution model of semi-permeation properties with microstructure has been shown. The understanding of oxygen transport mechanisms led to the development and the elaboration of news architectures of membranes.

L'étude de l'environnement local par rapport à la structure moyenne idéale est essentiel et peut être fourni par l'utilisation de techniques modernes de résonance magnétique nucléaire (RMN). Le travail présenté dans cette thèse suit et développe ces approches combinées pour l'enquête de trois classes différentes d'oxydes fonctionnels qui trouvent des applications dans des domaines d'intérêt technologique pertinente, comme l'optique et de l'énergétique : système perovskite LaSrAlO4, mélilite LaSr(Ga/Al)3O7 et la famille de orthosilicates Li2(Fe/Mn)SiO4. / The functional oxides are performing materials showing interestant properties. The study of the local environment respect to the average struvture is essential for the deep understanding of the correlations between structure and properties ; this investigation of short and medium range can be performed with the use of solid state NMR techniques. In particular in this thesis three different classes of materials for applications in fields of optic and energy are considered : perovskite structure LaSrAlO4, the melilite system LaSr(Ga/Al)3O7 and the family of orthosylicates Li2(Fe/Mn)SiO4.

Synthèse, caractérisations structurales et propriétés d'oxydes multifonctionnels A2B2O7 (A = lanthanide; B = Ti, Zr) sous forme massive et en couches minces / Synthesis, structural characterizations and properties of multifunctional oxides A2B2O7 (A = lanthanide ; B = Ti, Zr) in bulk and in thin films

Bayart, Alexandre 21 November 2014 (has links)
Cette thèse porte sur la synthèse et la caractérisation de nouvelles phases d’oxydes multifonctionnels de la famille Ln2B2O7 avec Ln = lanthanide, B = Ti ; Zr. Ces oxydes présentent de nombreuses propriétés : photocatalytiques, ferroélectriques, piézoélectriques, de luminescence... Sous forme massive, des solutions solides (La1-xLnx)2Ti2O7 avec Ln = Pr à Lu et La2(Ti1-xZrx)2O7 ont été synthétisées par réaction solide-solide. L’étude portant sur la substitution du site Ln a permis de déterminer les limites de stabilité de la phase pérovskite en feuillets en fonction de la nature du lanthanide. Des analyses menées par spectrométrie Raman, ainsi que par spectrofluorimétrie ont mis en évidence des propriétés de luminescence dans les solutions solides (La1-xEux)2Ti2O7 et (La1-xTbx)2Ti2O7, suggérant ainsi la possibilité d’utiliser ces composés pour la fabrication de nouveaux systèmes luminophores. Des couches minces de Ln2Ti2O7 ont été élaborées par ablation laser pulsé, puis caractérisées par diffraction de rayons X haute résolution et par microscopie électronique à transmission haute résolution. Les nouvelles limites de stabilité des films minces à structure pérovskite en feuillets ont pu être déterminées dans le cas de dépôts réalisés sur des substrats de SrTiO3 et LaAlO3 orientés (100) et (110). Le caractère piézoélectrique/ferroélectrique des films de Ln2Ti2O7 cristallisés dans la phase α monoclinique a été confirmé à l’échelle locale par la microscopie à force piézoélectrique. Enfin, nous avons montré que la croissance épitaxiale d’un film de La2Zr2O7 déposé sur SrTiO3-(110) pouvait conduire à l'existence de la ferroélectricité en raison d'une structure pyrochlore géométriquement frustrée et la perte de la symétrie cubique. Ces résultats prometteurs font de ces composés Ln2B2O7 des candidats de premier choix en vue du développement de nouvelles phases oxydes multifonctionnelles. De plus, l’absence de plomb au sein de ces structures, ainsi que leur formidable résistance à la température et à l’irradiation ouvrent des perspectives intéressantes quant à l’utilisation de ces matériaux dans les équipements électroniques et en milieux extrêmes. / This thesis focuses on the synthesis and characterization of new multifunctional Ln2B2O7 oxides phases with Ln = lanthanide, B = Ti, Zr. These oxides possess many properties, including photocatalysis, ferroelectricity, piezoelectricity and luminescence. In bulk form, solid solutions of (La1-xLnx)2Ti2O7 with Ln = Pr to Lu and La2(Ti1-xZrx)2O7 were synthesis by solid-solid reaction. Study on the Ln site substitution highlighted the limits of stability of the layered perovskite depending on the nature of the lanthanide. Analysis carried out by Raman spectroscopy and spectrofluorimetry also permit the detection of luminescence in (La1-xEux)2Ti2O7 and (La1-xTbx)2Ti2O7 solid solutions, suggesting the possibility to use such compounds for fabrication of new phosphor systemes. Ln2Ti2O7 thin films were grown by pulsed laser deposition, and characterized by high resolution X-rays diffraction and high resolution transmission electron microscopy. The new limits of stability of films with layeredperovskite structure have been determined in the case of samples grown on (100)- and (110)-oriented SrTiO3 and LaAlO3 substrates. The piezoelectric/ferroelectrique properties of Ln2Ti2O7 thin films crystallized in the monoclinic α phase were confirmed at the local level by piezoelectric force microscopy measurements. Finally, we have shown the the epitaxial growth of La2Zr2O7 films deposited on (110)-oriented SrTiO3 substrate can induce ferroelectricity for geometrically frustrated pyrochlore structure with the loss of cubic symmetry. These interesting results make Ln2B2O7 compounds promising candidates for the development of new multifunctional oxides. Moreover, the absence of lead in these structures and their resistance to the temperature and irradiation open interesting perspectives for the use of such materials in electronic equipments and in extreme environments.
