[Abstract] We report a magnetoelectric effect in the double perovskite CaMn7O12, that shows a complex magnetic behavior below 90 K with two magnetic phases coexisting (one ferrimagnetic and the other modulated). A second ...

[Abstract] We present the structural (XRD and Raman) and electrochemical properties of various oxides of the cobaltate family (with the α-NaFeO2-type structure) grown by solid-state reaction, wet chemistry and film deposition ...

[Abstract] We have recorded the FTIR spectra of powder samples of Ln2−xSrxCoO4 (Ln=La, Nd) at room temperature. We have identified the infrared active modes (3A2u+4Eu), and analyzed how they change as a function of Ln and ...

[Abstract] The lithiated nickel–cobalt oxide LiNi0.5Co0.5O2 used as cathode material was grown at low-temperature using different aqueous solution methods. The wet chemistry involved the mixture of metal salts (acetates ...

[Abstract] In this work we further the structural characterization of the recently discovered (C3N2H5)[Mn(HCOO)3] metal–organic framework with perovskite-like structure, and we present its magnetic and dielectric properties ...

We have prepared LiCo1−yAlyO2 and LiNi0.5−yAlyCo0.5O2 (0≤y≤0.3) powder samples by a low temperature sol–gel method using succinic acid as chelating agent. We have studied the details of their crystallographic and local ...

[Abstract] The Pr0.79Na0.21MnO3 perovskite has been prepared in polycrystalline form by a ceramic method. We have carried out its structural characterization by synchrotron X-ray powder diffraction (SXRPD) at room temperature ...

[Abstract] In this work, we show that the hybrid material Co2(1,4-bdc)2(dabco)•[4DMF•1H2O], shows an apparent colossal dielectric constant at room temperature (r5000 at 300 K for =100 Hz). Nevertheless, such response ...

[Abstract] The layered LiCo1−yNiyO2 microcrystalline powders were synthesized by a sol–gel method using citric acid as a chelating agent in the range 0.2 ≤ y ≤ 0.8. Submicron-sized particles of the precursor were obtained ...

[Abstract] Nanoparticles of MFe2O4 (M=Mn, Co and Ni), with diameters ranging from 5 to 10 nm, have been obtained through a solvothermal method. In this synthesis, an alcohol (benzyl alcohol or hexanol) is used as both a ...
