Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book some 50 papers published by K A Mller as author or co-author over several decades, amplified by more recent work mainly by T W Kool with collaborators, are reproduced. The main subject is Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) applied to the study of perovskites and other oxides with related subjects. This wealth of papers is organized into eleven chapters, each with an introductory text written in the light of current understanding. The contributions of the first editor on structural phase transitions have been immense, and because K A Mller and J C Fayet have published a review paper on the subject, the latter is reproduced in chapter VII. Not related to EPR is a part of chapter VIII on the dipolar and quantum paraelectric behavior with dielectric studies. in chapter X two papers proving the existence of Fermi glasses are reproduced. The year 1986 bears some significance: early in this year the paper by Bednorz and Mller on the possible observation of superconductivity was published. This resulted in a substantial shift in the paradigm of condensed matter physics, to which the present first editor has contributed scientifically with others and which will be reviewed in a second volume.

Download or read book Thermal and Elastic Properties of Perovskite Oxides from First Principles written by Ethan Tyler Ritz and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ABO3 perovskite oxide system is known to exhibit many technologically relevant materials properties, including ferroelectricity, ferromagnetism and antiferromagnitism, ferroelasticity, colossal magnetoresistance, and ultra-low thermal conductivity. Additionally, the wide choice of candidates for A and B, and extensive development of successful strain-engineering methods through epitaxial growth, provides a large design space through which these properties can be enhanced, suppressed, or controlled. In this dissertation, I explore the thermal and elastic properties of perovskite oxides, primarily ferroelectric PbTiO3, using theory and first-principles computation.In Chapter 1, I outline many the basic theoretical definitions techniques used throughout the text, covering thermal expansion, the theory of phonons, and density functional theory.In Chapter 2, I use first-principles theory to show that the ingredients assumed to be essential to the occurrence of negative thermal expansion (NTE) - rigid unit phonon modes with negative Gruneisen parameters- are neither sufficient nor necessary for a material to undergo volumetric NTE. Instead, I find that NTE in PbTiO3 involves a delicate interplay between the phonon properties of a material (Gruneisen parameters) and its anisotropic elasticity. These unique insights open new avenues in our fundamental understanding of the thermal properties of materials, and in the search for NTE in new materials classes.In Chapter 3, I explore thermal expansion behavior further. While it has certainly been recognized that mismatch in the thermal expansion coefficients of the bulk and substrate material will contribute to the misfit strain, the significance of this contribution for ferroelectric perovskite thin-films has not been systematically explored. I use first-principles density functional theory and the example of ferroelectric PbTiO3 thin-films on various substrates to show that ignoring the thermal expansion of the substrate (that is, assuming that the in-plane lattice parameter of the film remains roughly constant as a function of temperature) results in ferroelectric transition temperatures and structural trends that are completely qualitatively different from calculations in which thermal expansion mismatch is properly taken into account. This work suggests that the concept of a misfit strain defined as a single number is particularly ill-defined for PbTiO3 and invites further study of the interplay between thermal expansion mismatch and structural and functional properties in other thin-filmmaterials.In Chapter 4, I build off this work by using the Gruneisen theory of thermal expansion in combination with density functional calculations and the quasiharmonic approximation to uncover mechanisms of thermal expansion in PbTiO3 thin-films in terms of elastic and vibrational contributions to the free energy. Surprisingly, I find that although the structural parameters of PbTiO3 thin-films evolve with temperature as if they are dominated by linear elasticity, PbTiO3 thin-films are strongly anharmonic, with large changes in the elastic constants and Gruneisen parameters with both misfit strain and temperature. I show that a fortuitous near-cancellation between different types of anharmonicity gives rise to the behavior. My results illustrate the importance of high-order phonon-strain anharmonicity in determining the temperature-dependent structural parameters of PbTiO3 thin-films, and highlight the complex manner in which thermal expansion, misfit strain and elastic and vibrational properties are intertwined.In Chapter 5, I attempt to explore the chemical origins of the materials properties that play a role in the previous chapters. While DFT can be used to calculate what values these properties take in a given material, it does not tell us the origins of those properties in terms of chemistry and bonding, the language we use to both explain the driving physics behind existing materials properties, as well as to synthesize new materials with desired properties. Even for "routine" calculations of, for example, elastic properties or vibrational phonon frequencies, translating the quantitative results of a simulation into physical insights or design rules for enhancing or adjusting those properties remains challenging. Here, I discuss a new computational technique I have developed to rigorously relate the elastic, vibrational, and phase behavior of materials to specific chemical bonds in the crystal. The goal of this project is to gain chemical intuition with respect to controlling macroscale material properties. For example, if each bond in a crystal could be rigorously and sensibly assigned a portion of the total bulk modulus, such that the total stiffness of the system could be expressed as a sum over bonds, then we can understand how each bond is contributing to the macroscale behavior under hydrostatic stress, as well as develop an under- standing as to why that compressibility would evolve given changes in structure, pressure, or through chemical substitution. I have implemented a proof- of-concept of this method in software, building off of the open-source Quantum Espresso and Wannier90 projects.Finally, in Chapter 6, I discuss current directions and future work based to further explore and build off of the the concepts I have established in this dissertation.

This book was released on 1998 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Metal oxides constitute one of the most amazing classes of materials with a wide range of properties. They exhibit a variety of phenomena, such as ferroelectricity, ferromagnetism and superconductivity. A new aspect of metal oxides -- colossal magnetoresistance exhibited by certain manganese oxides, in particular rare earth manganates of perovskite structure -- has received much attention in the last four years. Some of these oxides show 100% magnetoresistance and have much potential for technological applications. Previously this phenomenon was found only in layered and granular metallic materials. Studies of colossal magnetoresistance have led to the discovery of many other new phenomena and properties such as charge ordering and orbital ordering. In view of the importance of colossal magnetoresistance, charge ordering and related phenomena exhibited by oxides to the physics and chemistry of solid materials, it is necessary and timely to have a book dealing with these topics. This book begins with a review of the subject followed by contributions from a number of experts which cover the present status of the subject.

This book was released on 2009-06-12 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fuel cell technology is quite promising for conversion of chemical energy of hydrocarbon fuels into electricity without forming air pollutants. There are several types of fuel cells: polymer electrolyte fuel cell (PEFC), phosphoric acid fuel cell (PAFC), molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC), solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC), and alkaline fuel cell (AFC). Among these, SOFCs are the most efficient and have various advantages such as flexibility in fuel, high reliability, simple balance of plant (BOP), and a long history. Therefore, SOFC technology is attracting much attention as a power plant and is now close to marketing as a combined heat and power generation system. From the beginning of SOFC development, many perovskite oxides have been used for SOFC components; for example, LaMnO -based oxide for the cathode and 3 LaCrO for the interconnect are the most well known materials for SOFCs. The 3 current SOFCs operate at temperatures higher than 1073 K. However, lowering the operating temperature of SOFCs is an important goal for further SOFC development. Reliability, durability, and stability of the SOFCs could be greatly improved by decreasing their operating temperature. In addition, a lower operating temperature is also beneficial for shortening the startup time and decreasing energy loss from heat radiation. For this purpose, faster oxide ion conductors are required to replace the conventional Y O -stabilized ZrO 2 3 2 electrolyte. A new class of electrolytes such as LaGaO is considered to be 3 highly useful for intermediate-temperature SOFCs.
