Domestic microwave oven adapted for fast heat treatment of Ba0.5Sr0.5(Ti0.8Sn0.2)O3 powders

Electrical Characterizations of Lead Free Sr and Sn Doped BaTiO3 Ferroelectric Films Deposited by Sol-Gel

“…We have made an annealing in a microwave oven (Keyson et al, 2007) at 750 °C during 5 min for a BTS film, 400 nm thick deposited on a Si/Pt substrate. The XRD pattern is presented figure 5.a.…”

Structural refinement and photoluminescence properties of irregular cube-like (Ca1−xCux)TiO3 microcrystals synthesized by the microwave–hydrothermal method

“…In order to prevent the formation of calcium carbonate as a second phase, nitrogen gas was constantly bubbled to the system. In the sequence, this mixture was transferred to a Teflon autoclave, which was finally sealed and placed in the MH system using 2.45 GHz microwave radiation with maximum power of 800 W [20] The MH conditions were kept at 140 C for 30 min, using a heating rate fixed at 10 C min À1 . Finalized the MH processing, the autoclave was naturally cooled at room temperature.…”

Photoluminescent behavior of BaWO4 powders processed in microwave-hydrothermal

“…The main advantages of the microwave-hydrothermal (MH) process in relation to the CH are: (a) the kinetics of the reaction is enhanced by one to two orders of magnitude, (b) materials with different morphologies can be obtained, (c) rapid heating to treatment temperature saves time and energy and (d) reduced processing time [16,17]. BaWO 4 is an important luminescent material with a high application potential for the development of scintillating devices [18].…”
