Preparation and Characterization of Bi-Doped LaAlO3 via Sol-Gel Process

Article Preview

Abstract:

A series of Bi-doped BixLa1-xAlO3 (x=0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4) powders have been prepared by sol-gel method at 800°C. The influences of Bi doping content on phase, morphology, particle size, surface area, infrared absorption spectrum are discussed. XRD results show that there is no second phase in powders when x≤0.3, however, there exist impure phases when x≥0.4. The SEM analysis indicates the particle size of powder is 50-150nm. The specific surface area is 5-13 m2/g.
