Zirconate pyrochlores have been envisaged as promising candidates for inert matrix fuel applications and immobilization of nuclear waste. Therefore, Ce 4+-substituted Nd 2 Zr 2 O 7 …
In this work, we have studied the structural behavior of Fluortie-type (F-type) Ce-based oxides of compositions Ln _ 2 Ce _ 2 O _ 7 Ln 2 Ce 2 O 7 (Ln= Pr Ln= Pr, Nd and Eu). F-type …
A novel automated high-throughput screening approach, ClusterFinder, is reported for finding candidate structures for atomic pair distribution function (PDF) structural refinements …
Solid solutions of NdxCe1− xO2− δ (0.05≤ x≤ 0.55) are prepared via solid-state reactions and the grain ionic conductivity is measured using a two-probe ac impedance spectroscopy …
Abstract European Space Agency (ESA) radioisotope power systems will use 241 Am as their heat source. The chemical form of the americium oxide has yet to be decided but an …
Oxides with the general formula A2B2O7 and the pyrochlore structure have drawn much attention in the field of radionuclides immobilization. The Gd2Zr2O7 composition, in …
The European Space Agency's (ESA's) 241Am radioisotope power systems (RPSs) research and development programme is ongoing. The chemical form of the americium …
In this master thesis, defects and transport properties in fluorite related materials Ln2Ce2O7 (Ln= Nd, Gd) were investigated by electrical measurements and thermogravimetry. Nd2 …
High-entropy oxides, as a novel research field in ceramics, have been found to present state- of-the-art improvement in various properties. These contributions could be achieved by …
