In this work, RENbO 4 (RE = Y, La, Nd, Sm, Gd, Dy, Yb) ceramics with low density, low Young's modulus, low thermal conductivity, and high thermal expansion have been systematically investigated, the excellent thermo-mechanical properties indicate that RENbO 4 ceramics possess the potential as the new generation of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) materials. X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy phase structure identification reveal that all dense bulk specimens obtained by high-temperature solid-state reaction belonged to the monoclinic (m) phase with C12/c1 space group. The ferroelastic domains are detected in the specimens, revealing the ferroelastic transformation between tetragonal (t) and monoclinic (m) phases of RENbO 4 ceramics. The Young's modulus and hardness of the RENbO 4 ceramics measured by the NanoBlitz 3D nanoindentation method are discussed in details, and the lower Young's modulus (60-170 GPa) and higher hardness (the maximum value reaches 11.48 GPa) indicating that higher resistance of RENbO 4 ceramics to failure and damage. Lower thermal conductivity (1.42-2.21 W [m k] −1 at 500°C-900°C) and lower density (5.330-7.400 g/cm 3 ) than other typical TBCs materials give RENbO 4 ceramics the unique advantage of being new TBCs materials. Meanwhile, the thermal expansion coefficients of RENbO 4 ceramics reach 9.8-11.6 × 10 −6 k −1 and are comparable or higher than other typical TBCs materials. According to the first-order derivative of the thermal expansion rate, the temperature of the ferroelastic transformation of RENbO 4 ceramics can be observed.

The present study focused on the preparation, characterization, and application of cerium (Ce) and neodymium (Nd) co-doped lead (PbO 2 ) electrode, i.e., Ti/SnO 2 -Sb 2 O 3 /α-PbO 2 /Ce-Nd-β-PbO 2 . The electrochemical activities of the modified electrode were investigated and compared with those of Ce-PbO 2 , Nd-PbO 2 , and pure PbO 2 electrodes. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) were used to characterize the surface morphology, crystal structure, and elemental states of the modified electrode. The Ce and Nd co-doped PbO 2 electrode had smaller crystal particles, more compact structure, and higher activity of electrocatalysis compared with the single-doped and undoped PbO 2 electrodes. Linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were also utilized to study the electrochemical response of the modified electrodes. The results show that the prepared Ce-Nd-PbO 2 electrode has the highest O 2 evolution potential (OEP) and lowest charge transfer resistance, suggesting that it has the lower energy consumption than the other three kinds of electrodes. Electrochemical oxidation methyl orange (MO) as a model dye wastewater was studied to evaluate the potential applications of this modified electrode in environmental science. It was found that the Ce-Nd-PbO 2 electrode exhibited higher MO and chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal efficiency than single-doped and pure PbO 2 electrodes.

Layered Nd-doped LiNi 0.5 Co 0.2 Mn 0.3 O 2 (NCM523) compounds were successfully synthesized via a coprecipitation-assisted solid-phase method in this work. The effects of Nd doping on the crystal structure, morphology, and electrochemical properties were characterized thoroughly using XRD, SEM, TEM, EDX, and electrochemical tests. Rietveld refinement of the X-ray diffraction data indicated that the Nd-doped samples had lower cation mixing than the raw NCM523. The SEM and EDX mapping characterization results demonstrated that Nd atoms were uniformly distributed in NCM523. At 1C and 10C, the Li(Ni 0.5 Co 0.2 Mn 0.3 ) 0.992 Nd 0.008 O 2 materials exhibited initial discharge capacities of 189.7 and 101.5 mAh g −1 , respectively, with capacity retentions of 83.3% and 88%, respectively, compared to those of NCM523 (68.1% and 52.5%, respectively) with a cutoff voltage of 4.8 V after 100 cycles. It was found that NCM523 doped with Nd 3+ ions can expand lithium ion diffusion channels in the layered structure and stabilize the structure of the material.

Thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) are one of the most important materials in gas turbine to protect the high temperature components. RETa 3 O 9 compounds have a defect-perovskite structure, indicating that they have low thermal conductivity, which is the critical property of TBCs. Herein, dense RETa 3 O 9 bulk ceramics were fabricated via solid-state reaction. The crystal structure was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman Spectroscope. Scanning electron microscope (SEM) was used to observe the microstructure. The thermophysical properties of RETa 3 O 9 were studied systematically, including specific heat, thermal diffusivity, thermal conductivity, thermal expansion coefficients, and high-temperature phase stability. The thermal conductivities of RETa 3 O 9 are very low (1.33-2.37 W/m·K, 373-1073 K), which are much lower than YSZ and La 2 Zr 2 O 7 ; and the thermal expansion coefficients range from 4.0 × 10 −6 K −1 to 10.2×10 −6 K −1 (1273 K), which is close to La 2 Zr 2 O 7 and YSZ. According to the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) curve there is not phase transition at the test temperature. Due to the high melting point and excellent high-temperature phase stability with these oxides, RETa 3 O 9 ceramics were promising candidate materials for TBCs.

It is necessary to broaden absorption bandwidth, regulate applied frequency, reduce the weight and maintain strong absorption for magnetic microwave absorbing materials by constructing suitable material structures to satisfy the requirements for wide applications in various electromagnetic devices. In this work, well-structured amorphous-Co@Nd(BO 2 ) 3 /rGO nanocomposites have been fabricated using a selective chemical reduction in a mixed aqueous solution containing Co 2+ and Nd 3+ ions along with GO sheets reduced by NaBH 4 as the reductant, in which only Co 2+ and GO but no Nd 3+ ions were reduced. Very low coercivity of 0.4 Oe is achieved in amorphous-Co@Nd(BO 2 ) 3 /rGO nanocomposites due to amorphous Co@Nd(BO 2 ) 3 core-shell nanoparticles uniformly anchored on rGO sheets. These soft magnetic rGO-based nanocomposites exhibit high-frequency microwave absorption performance including a minimum reflection loss ( RL min ) value of −84.09 dB at 15.38 GHz for a 2.1 mm thickness at an applied frequency range (12.31–18 GHz) covering almost the entire Ku band. Moreover, a much wider absorption band of 7.24 GHz (10.67–17.89 GHz, RL ≤ −10 dB) with a 2.3 mm thickness along with a RL min value of −35.92 dB is also achieved. These rGO-based magnetic composites also show good structural stability , low density and easily controlled material compositions along with facile chemical fabrication suitable for mass production, which promises their latent use in high-performance microwave absorbing devices. Crystallization behavior of a new amorphous Nd(BO 2 ) 3 phase was also investigated.

Molten salt provides a fast mass transfer and nucleation process, so the ceramic solid solution for immobilization of high-level nuclear waste (HLW) can be synthesized at lower temperatures. The chemical stability in the process of interaction with groundwater determines the ability of the matrix phase to prevent radionuclides from entering the biosphere. Nd-doped Y 3 Fe 5 O 12 ceramics were prepared by the molten salt method at different sintering temperatures (1000℃, 1100℃, 1200℃) and different m (eutectic salt): m (oxide) ratios (2:1, 3:1, 4:1). The sintered ceramic is Y 3-x Nd x Fe 5 O 12 , where x is the solubility of Nd in YIG. The results show that the optimum mass ratio of molten salt to oxide is 3:1. The solubility of Nd in garnet is 33.3 mol% ( x = 1.1) and 56.7 mol% ( x = 1.6) at 1100℃ and 1200℃, respectively. In the neutral medium, Nd does not transfer to the liquid phase. Acid leaching promotes the strong dissolution of the garnet matrix. In this case, the leaching rate of Nd from ceramics to the liquid phase is two to three orders of magnitude higher than that in a neutral medium. The experimental results suggest that garnet matrices can reliably immobilize actinides in subsurface repositories.

With the linewidth of integrated circuits has progressively narrowed, imposing higher demands on the chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) process. Cerium oxide nanoparticles are widely used as abrasives in CMP, with their physical structure and the surface content of Ce 3+ ions and oxygen vacancies directly affecting their CMP performance. Here in, we synthesized La/Pr/Nd doped CeO 2 with the porous self-assembled spherical structures. Doping with La/Pr/Nd reduced the grain size of cerium oxide, increased its specific surface area, decreased the pore size, and increased the pore volume. HR-TEM analysis shows that the porous self-assembled spherical CeO 2 primarily exposes the (111) crystal facet. Additionally, the density functional theory (DFT) calculation, XPS, H 2 -TPR and XANES analyses shown that doping of La/Pr/Nd facilitated the formation of oxygen vacancies and increased the Ce 3+ content on the (111) crystal facet of the CeO 2 . La atoms are more likely to stabilize on the CeO 2 (111) surface compared to Pr and Nd atoms. The CMP results indicated that, The La-CeO 2 exhibited a higher MRR of 338 ± 7.54 nm/min, which is a 35 % increase compared to p-CeO 2 , and achieved superior surface roughness ( Ra = 0.201 ± 0.010 nm).

Trivalent lanthanides (Ln3+) doped bismuth-based inorganic compounds have attracted considerable interest as promising candidates for next-generation inorganic luminescent materials. Here, a series of K0.3Bi0.7F2.4(KBF) nanocrystalline particles with controlled morphology have been synthesized through a low-temperature aqueous-phase precipitation method. Using KBF as the host matrix, Eu3+, Tb3+, Pr3+, Nd3+, Sm3+,and Dy3+ions are introduced to obtain K0.3Bi0.7F2.4:Ln3+(KBF:Ln) nanophosphors. The as-prepared KBF:Ln nanophosphors exhibit commendable photoluminescence properties, in which multicolor emissions in a single host lattice can be obtained by doping different Ln3+ions when excited by ultraviolet light. Moreover, the morphology and photoluminescence performance of these nanophosphors remain unchanged under different soaking times in water, showing good stability in a humid environment. The proposed simple and rapid synthesis route, low-cost and nontoxic bismuth-based host matrix, and tunable luminescent colors will lead the way to access these KBF:Ln nanophosphors for appealing applications such as white LEDs and optical thermometry.

A 2 BB’ X 6 double perovskite has recently been considered as a potential substitute for lead-based halide perovskite . In particular, the lead-free Cs 2 AgInCl 6 material possesses excellent moisture and thermal stability. However, the wide bandgap of the Cs 2 AgInCl 6 host limits its optical properties . Doping with active elements is a unique avenue to endow Cs 2 AgInCl 6 with excellent optical properties . Here, a strategy is proposed to explore the efficiency of near-infrared (NIR) emissions in Ln 3+ (Ln Nd, Yb) ions doped Cs 2 AgInCl 6 microcrystal by the codoping of Sb 3+ ion for the first time. The incorporation of Sb 3+ ion emerges a new optical absorption channel at a longer wavelength (>350 nm) and reduces the electron bandgap. Under the excitation at 365 nm, Sb 3+ and Ln 3+ (Ln Nd, Yb) co-doped Cs 2 AgInCl 6 show the efficient NIR emission peaking at around 1000 nm, attributing to the effective energy transfer from Sb 3+ to Yb 3+ or Nd 3+ f-electrons. Accordingly, the photoluminescence mechanism and environmental stability of Sb 3+ and Ln 3+ (Ln Nd, Yb) co-doped Cs 2 AgInCl 6 microcrystal were also discussed in detail. This work demonstrates the availability of the Sb 3+ doping tactics to realize efficient NIR emission in Ln 3+ (Ln Nd, Yb) doped Cs 2 AgInCl 6 microcrystal.

In this study, a lead dioxide electrode co-modified with carbon microspheres and neodymium (CMS-Nd-PbO2) was prepared. The structural morphology and electrochemical properties of the four electrodes, PbO2, CMS-PbO2, Nd-PbO2, and CMS-Nd-PbO2, were compared by field emission scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffractometer, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and electrochemical impedance, respectively. The results showed that the prepared CMS-Nd-PbO2 electrode had higher surface denseness and higher electrode activity. Based on the accelerated lifetime experiment, the actual working life of four electrodes was studied, and the CMS-Nd-PbO2 electrode had a relatively long lifetime, increased 24.60% compared with the PbO2 electrode. The influencing parameters of electrochemical degradation of bisphenol S (BPS) by CMS-Nd-PbO2 electrode, the ability of different electrodes to generate hydroxyl radicals, reaction mechanism, and the possible BPS degradation pathways were also discussed. Further, the safety of the prepared electrode was evaluated. Under the optimal parameters, the removal rate of BPS and chemical oxygen demand (COD) were 96.49% and 51.84%, respectively. The dissolved lead ion concentration in the solution after electrochemical oxidation was lower than the WHO standard. The CMS-Nd-PbO2 electrode showed promising applications in the degradation of emerging contaminants wastewater.

Nd-Fe-B nanoparticles have been successfully prepared by using an optimized low-energy chemical method. The effects of reduction-diffusion time on the microstructure and properties of Nd-Fe-B nanoparticles were investigated by using TEM, XRD, SEM, VSM and Rietveld calculations. The results showed that when the reduction-diffusion time was short, the reaction was not sufficient, which resulted in a residual H5Nd2 phase. When the reduction-diffusion time was prolonged, the H5Nd2 phase gradually decreased and the relative crystallinity of Nd2Fe14B phase gradually increased. Moreover, the grain size grew and the rich Nd phase appeared gradually around the grains. Furthermore, as the reduction-diffusion time was prolonged, the coercive force of Nd-Fe-B nanoparticles increased first and then decreased. When the holding time was extended to 180 min, the coercive force reached a maximum of about 4.85 kOe and the magnetic energy product was about 2.5 MGOe.

Flexible wearable pressure sensors exhibit great potential in human activity tracking. Designing visual sensors that integrate active luminescence and motion monitoring is a current research focus. This study proposed a novel five-layer mechanoluminescent piezoelectric sensor (MPS) that synergistically combined the piezoelectricity of Nd-ZnO NRs loaded carbonized silk fabric (CSF) with the luminescent capability of ZnS:Cu/PDMS. A low-temperature hydrothermal method was utilized to incorporate Nd 3 + into the ZnO lattice, while loading the ZnO NRs onto CSF. Nd 3+ was used as a p-type dopant to regulate the piezoelectricity of ZnO, yielding a highly sensitive piezoelectric layer. The resulting MPS exhibited high pressure sensitivity ( S = 27.48 mV/kPa, 0–100 kPa), excellent pressure response (Response time = 150 ms), and outstanding stability (>2400 cycles). Experiments demonstrated that MPS can effectively monitor human joint movement. Due to the introduction of ZnS:Cu, MPS emitted pulsed light which intensity was linearly correlated with the applied stress (R 2 = 0.98). During the nighttime running test, MPS emitted electrical and optical signals corresponding to the bending angles and frequencies of human joints. MPS features visual and electrical dual-mode sensing capabilities, enabling simultaneous monitoring of pressure and strain stimuli to achieve stress visualization. This study provides a feasible approach to developing intelligent sensing systems with active luminescence.
