For transmission
electron microscopy
(TEM) and high-resolution TEM (HRTEM) images, the samples were recorded
on a field-emission transmission electron microscope (JoelJEM-2001F)
to measure the size and size distribution of particles by depositing
them on carbon-coated copper grids (holey carbon, 200 mesh Cu) and
leaving them to dry at room temperature. Powder X-ray diffraction
(XRD) patterns were acquired on a D/MaxIIIA (Rigaku) diffractometer
using Cu Kα radiation (λ = 1.54 Å) in a 2θ
range from 5 to 80° at a scan rate of 0.02° per step. Thermogravimetric
analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were performed
using a simultaneous thermal analyzer (STA 499C, Netzsch) at a heating
rate of 10 °C·min–1 in a flowing nitrogen
atmosphere from room temperature to 800 °C. Fourier transform
infrared (FT-IR) spectra were obtained on an FT-IR spectrometer (Nicolet
iS50) using KBr pellets. The electrical conductance (EC) was recorded

Comprehensive Characterization of Doped Microcrystalline Powders

Powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) patterns were tested on a Rigaku D/max-IIIA diffractometer with Cu Kα (1.54 Å) radiation at 293 K. Steady-state PL spectrums were recorded by Edinburgh Instruments FLS 980 at room temperature (25 °C) for all samples. Diffuse reflectance spectrums of the microcrystalline powders were recorded on a UV/Vis spectrophotometer (SHIMADZU, UV3600Plus), calibrated by simultaneous measurement of the substance (BaSO4 powder), and then converted to absorbance using the KubelkaMunk theory. The thickness and roughness of the samples remained consistent during the study with different doping levels. Thermogravimetric Analysis spectrums were measured on NETZSCH TG209F3 with the heating rate of 10 K per minute in N2 atmosphere. Raman spectrums were obtained on RENISHAW inVia Reflex. The XPS measurements were performed on Thermal Scientific Escalab 250 Xi-UPS. An Al Kα (1486.6 eV) X-ray was used as the excitation source for XPS.

The morphology of the samples was examined using the thermal field-emission environmental scanning electron microscope (Quanta 400F, FEI/OXFORD/HKL, Dutch). The crystal structure analysis was conducted by XRD instruments (D/Max-IIIA, Rigaku, Japan) using Cu-Kα radiation (λ = 1.5418 Å). The TEM, high-resolution TEM images, and SAED were obtained with a JEOL JEM- 2010HR transmission electron microscope operating at 200 kV. Chemical composition of QNHMs was analysed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (ESCALAB 250, Thermo-VG Scientific). The pore characteristics and specific surface area were measured by a nitrogen adsorption–desorption apparatus (ASAP 2020M, Micromeritics).

The chemical compositions of the formed brush-coated LaYSrO films were investigated by XPS (K-alpha, Thermo Scientific, Waltham, MA, USA) using a 12 kV/3 mA power source and monochromatic Al X-ray source (Al Ka line: 1486.6 eV). The surface morphologies of the brush-coated LaYSrO films were then investigated using AFM (NX-10, Park Systems, Suwon, Korea).

Sample crystallinity was determined by plotting the peak baseline on the diffractogram. The areas above and under the curve corresponded to crystalline domains and amorphous regions, respectively. The ratio of upper area to total area was taken as relative crystallinity.

Powder X-ray Diffraction Analysis of HAP

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Powder X-ray Diffraction (XRD, D/Max-IIIA, RIGAKU, Japan) was utilized to identify the crystalline phase. The crystallite size was calculated by Scherrer's formula as follows: Xhkl = kλ/β1/2cosθ, where Xhkl is the crystallite size (nm); λ the wavelength of monochromatic X-ray beam (nm); β1/2 the full width at half maximum of diffraction peak; θ the diffraction angle (°); and k is a constant varying with crystal habit and chosen to be 0.9. The diffraction peaks of (002) and (310) Miller's plane families were used to calculate the crystallite sizes of HAP, showing the crystal growth along the c-axis and along a direction perpendicular to c-axis of HAP crystalline structure. The crystallinity degree (Xc) of HAP powders was evaluated by the equation: Xc ≈ 1–V112/300/I300, where I300 is the intensity of (300) diffraction peak and V112/300 is the intensity of the hollow between (112) and (300) diffraction peaks.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
