Bulk In-doped Cu 2 SnSe 3 samples were prepared by a fast and one-step method of high-gravity combustion synthesis . All the synthesized samples were dense with relative densities of >98%. The influence of Indium-doping on the phase composition of the samples was investigated. SEM and EDS measurements confirm the existence of SnSe and Cu 2 Se as secondary phase in the Cu 2 Sn 1−x In x Se 3 samples. In addition, the experimental results show that there is a solubility limit of indium in the Cu 2 SnSe 3 matrix. The thermoelectric properties of the samples were measured in a temperature range from 323 K to 773 K, and the Cu 2 Sn 0.8 In 0.2 Se 3 sample achieved a maximum ZT of 0.65 at 773 K, which was comparable with the best-reported result for Cu 2 SnSe 3 materials prepared by conventional sintering approaches. With much reduced time and energy consumption, high-gravity combustion synthesis may offer a more efficient and economical way for producing thermoelectric materials .

Ultraviolet (UV) photodetectors play an important role in numerous commercial and scientific applications. The UV photodetectors based on binary-cation indium zinc oxide (InZnO) thin films exhibit great performance enhancement, compared with their single-cation counterparts. However, UV photodetectors based on 1D InZnO nanowires could potentially exhibit more superior optoelectrical performance, due to the large surface-to-volume ratio and favorable carrier transport characteristics of nanowires. This work has combined combustion synthesis with electrospinning technique to efficiently fabricate InZnO nanowire-based UV photodetectors. At the annealing temperature of 375 °C, the newly designed InZnO nanowire photodetectors exhibit excellent photoelectric performance under the irradiation of 310 nm UV light, including a photo-to-dark current ratio of 1.2 × 10 4 , a photo responsivity of 2.8 × 10 3 A W –1 , and a high detectivity of 2.4 × 10 16 Jones. This study not only demonstrates the opportunity to construct new-generation transparent electronics based on 1D metal oxide nanowires but also sheds new light on how to further decrease the annealing temperature of metal oxide nanowire devices for low-temperature fabrication processes.

Magnetically separable Zn 1− x Cd x S/γ-Fe 2 O 3 ( x =0–1) photocatalysts were synthesized by a one-step combustion method. The structures, morphologies, absorbance, optical and photocatalytic properties of the samples were studied by X-ray powder diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy , ultraviolet–visible spectrophotometry and photoluminescence . The experimental results show that the formation of hexagonal Zn 1− x Cd x S and γ-Fe 2 O 3 and the combination of them were one-pot achieved. The Cd 2+ content has a significant influence on the absorbance of visible light and fluorescence properties. The magnetic properties of samples ensure the magnetic separation by using a magnet. CdS/γ-Fe 2 O 3 shows the best photocatalytic performance compared with other samples, ascribed to its small energy band gap and matching energy band structure between CdS and γ-Fe 2 O 3 . Moreover, no obvious deterioration was observed in the stability tests.

Copper-doped lithium manganese spinel LiCu x Mn 2-x O 4 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.10) as lithium ion cathode material were synthesized by a fameless combustion synthesis at 500 °C for 3 h, two-stage calcination at 600 °C for 3 h. The phase composition was determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), which indicated that all samples exhibited a single spinel structure except that LiCu 0.08 Mn 1.92 O 4 had a little impurity of Mn 3 O 4 . Micro-morphology of the materials were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), suggesting particle size of samples was nearly uniform when copper-doped amount x ranged from 0 to 0.06, the particle of LiCu 0.08 Mn 1.92 O 4 and LiCu 0.10 Mn 1.90 O 4 more seriously agglomerated together than that of other samples. The cycle performance tests indicated that the sample LiCu 0.06 Mn 1.94 O 4 had the highest initial discharge specific capacity of 128.1 mA h . g -1 and the 150 th capacity retention was 70.1% at 0.2 C rate. Cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy of the sample LiCu 0.06 Mn 1.94 O 4 illustrated that appropriate copper-doped modification can improve electrochemical reversibility as well as suppress electrochemical impedance.

Nanostructured tungsten carbide with high surface area and containing amorphous carbon is prepared by a low temperature combustion synthesis method. The nanostructured tungsten carbide is used as the catalyst in a gas diffusion electrode. The obtained WC with different carbon content was investigated by XRD, FESEM, TG-DTA, BET and XPS. When the molar ratio of C/W is 19/3, the WC particles with different carbon content are obtained after a carbonizing process between 900 and 1400 °C, and the content of free carbon in WC also increases gradually with temperature. The carbon content is tested by the high frequency combustion-infrared absorption method in a carbon sulfur analyzer. The electrochemical properties of the tungsten carbide for the oxygen reduction reaction are characterized by its polarization curves and electrochemical impedance. The results show that the presence of the appropriate amorphous carbon is beneficial for improving the conductivity and dispersibility of the tungsten carbide catalyst, and more active centers can be provided by the catalyst.

A series of K-doped Bi 1− x

CuSeO (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.10) compounds were prepared by combustion synthesis combined with spark plasma sintering method. Phase composition and microstructure analysis indicate almost single BiCuSeO phase in low doping level, while phase separation appears in heavy doping level. The thermoelectric properties of the Bi 1− x

CuSeO compounds have been measured in the temperature range of 323–823 K. The electrical conductivity is greatly enhanced by almost three times from 8.70 to 26.2 S/cm at 323 K by the substitution of Bi with K due to the large decrease of the activation energy. The overall thermal conductivity decreases significantly due to the strong point defect scattering by K doping and possibly enhanced interface scattering on the secondary phase. The maximum ZT reaches 0.6 at 823 K for the sample of x = 0.02, which is about 50% higher than that of the pristine sample. Our work offers a fast and more efficient approach for the fabrication of BiCuSeO-based materials.
