AB  - In the present paper, the effects of metal ion implantation on the structural and optical properties of TiN thin films have been investigated. TiN films of 170 nm thickness were grown by d.c. reactive sputtering on Si (100) wafers and then irradiated at 5 × 1016 ions/cm2 with either Au, Ag, or Cu ions by using two different energies per each implanted metal. The results showed that as deposited TiN crystallizes in the form of a fcc cubic structure, with the crystallites preferentially oriented along the (111) plane. For all implanted layers, the cubic structure was preserved, but compared to as deposited TiN the crystallites were smaller and the lattice was contracted. These changes were correlated with the depth distribution of Au, Ag and Cu ions and assigned to implantation-induced damage that was larger when higher ion energies were used. High-resolution XPS spectra of the surface of as deposited sample showed the coexistence of TiN, TiO2 and TiOxNy phases and this was related to the surface oxidation of the films due to the exposure to air. After implantation, the results were almost similar for all metals, showing an increase in TiO2 contribution and the formation of pure metallic Au and Ag phases, while copper is in the Cu2+ state, which is attributed to Cu(II)-oxide and Cu(OH)2. The microstructural characteristics including defect formation, changes in crystallite size and lattice contraction, and also growth of different metallic phases during implantations were correlated with the findings of the optical characterization of the implanted films. For the as deposited film we found an energy gap of 2.91 eV, which was lower than the value typical for TiN. After implantation the gap was shifted to higher energies, while at the visible part of the region, the existence of additional energy levels, at photon energies below 2.9 eV was observed. Besides, all implanted films showed degraded photocatalytic activity compared to as deposited TiN, among which Cu-implanted samples exhibited the best photocatalytic performances. The lower photocatalytic activity of Au and Ag implanted films compared to Cu implantations was ascribed to larger structural defects and the formation of less favorable electronic states.

AB  - Primary seawater magnesium-based cell with AgCl or PbCl2 cathodes is widely used as power sources. In this paper, we consider the cyclic galvanostatic formation of silver and lead chlorides and their electrochemical behavior for potential applications in the new concept of the seawater quasi-rechargeable magnesium cell. For potential cells, the voltage for Mg alloy AZ63 and AgCl is ~ 1.5 V, and for the PbCl2, ~ 1 V. High discharge specific capacity, energy, and power are obtained under the very high discharge rate. It is also presented that systems could be potentially used in emergency situations for a few days up to a few weeks as a power source in the life-saving boat for sporadic emitting GPS-SOS tacking signals and night signal lights.

AB  - Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are the most promising energy storage devices on the market today. Their importance is reflected in the fact that LIBs power numerous portable devices and that they are being developed for electric and hybrid electric vehicles [1]. Most commercial LIBs are composed of a graphite anode, which cannot meet high performace requirements [2]. Several transition metal-oxide based hosts have been considered as potential alternatives to the graphite anode, including TiO2. Low cost, high Li-ion insertion potential, low volume expansion and good cycling life make TiO2 a promising anode material. Different polymorphs of TiO2 have been investigated, and preference is given to the anatase phase. Herein, anatase TiO2 nanotube arrays (NTAs) electrode was preapred by anodic oxidation of Ti-foil and subesquent annealing at 400 oC. SEM micrographs show that the nanotubes (NTs) are cylindrical in shape, with an average inner diameter of about 95 nm and wall thickness ~15 nm. In the Raman spectrum, five active modes which correspond to the anatase phase are present. XRD pattern of as-prepared Ti/TiO2 NTAs electrode was recorded, and the strongest diffraction maximum of anatase phase was used for the claculation of the mean crystallite size. The obtained value is 19 ± 1 nm. Electrochemical experiments, which included cyclic voltammery (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and galvanostatic (GS) cycling, were carried out using a termostat in the temperature range from 25 – 55 oC. The 1 M solution of LiClO4 in propylene carbonate was used as an electrolyte in all cases. CV experiments demonstrated an increase in the redox peak intensity and a decrease in peak-to-peak separation at higher temperatures, indicating improvement in Li-ion storage capability and better reversibilty of Li-ion intercalation/deintercalation process. GS cycling showed a large Li-ion insertion capacity of Ti/TiO2 NTAs electrode, high Coulombic efficiency (CE) and good capcity retention. Lithiation capacity at 55 oC attains 357 mAh·g-1 at current rate 5.3 C, with CE of 97.5% and capacity retention of 98.5% after 50 cycles. EIS showed with increasing temperature a multifold decrease in solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer resistance and charge transfer resistance. EDS and FTIR spectra of Ti/TiO2 NTAs electrode were recorded to better underastand the nature of the formed SEI film.

AB  - Titanium nitride (TiN) is an attractive alternative for modern and future photonic applications, as its optical properties can be engineered over a wide spectral range. In this study, we have used sequential implantation of gold and silver ions with varying ion fluence, as well as subsequent annealing, in order to modify the optical and plasmonic properties of TiN thin films and correlated this to their structural properties. Our investigations show that the columnar structure of the TiN films is partially destroyed upon implantation, but metallic Au and Ag nanoparticles are formed. The irradiation further induces a reduction of the lattice constant as well as changes the TiN stoichiometry and grain size. From the optical point of view, the implanted films possess less metallicity with increasing Ag fluence and losses several times lower than the as-deposited film, which can be correlated with the deficiency of nitrogen and additional defects. Subsequent annealing partially recovered the destroyed columnar structure, and the films become more metallic where the optical losses are much smaller in comparison to the as-implanted situation, being comparable to those of pure Au and Ag. In this way, by varying the implantation fluence of silver ions properly while keeping the gold fluence constant, we were able to optimize experimental parameters in such a way to ensure the formation of TiN with desirable optical performances.

AB  - Praseodymium doped calcium hydroxyapatite (PrHAP) nanopowder was synthesized by the co-precipitation method and characterized by X-Ray Diffraction, Fourier Transform Infrared, and Fluorescence Spectroscopy. Characterization studies from XRD and FTIR spectra showed that obtained crystals are monophase hydroxyapatites and that the sample particles are of nano size. A fluorescence study has shown that PrHAP particles have fluorescent emission under UV‐ Visible excitation. These results may open new avenues for developing bioactive materials for bone regeneration and fluorescent probes for bio-imaging applications.

AB  - Layered VOPO4·2H2O is synthesized by the sonochemical method. An X-ray powder diffraction is used to examine the crystal structure, while scanning electron microscopy is used to reveal the morphology of the powder. The crystal structure refinement is performed in the P4/nmmZ space group. The electrochemical intercalation of several cations (Na+, Mg2+, Ca2+, and Al3+) in saturated nitrate aqueous solutions is investigated. The most notable reversible activity is found for the cycling in aluminium nitrate aqueous solution in the voltage range from −0.1 to 0.8 V vs. SCE. During the preparation of the electrode, it is observed that the structure is prone to changes that have not been recorded in the literature so far. Namely, the use of conventional binder PVDF in NMP solution deteriorates the structure and lowers the powder’s crystallinity, while the use of Nafion solution causes the rearrangement of the atoms in a new crystal form that can be described in the monoclinic P21/c space group. Consequently, these structural changes affect electrochemical performances. The observed differences in electrochemical performances are a result of structural rearrangements.

AB  - Electrochemical energy storage systems, primarily lithium-ion batteries, have experienced a huge expansion in the last couple of decades, but as they are very expensive to manufacture a lot of effort is being put into finding a more affordable replacement. For this purpose, multivalent cation compounds whose crystal structure is similar to the crystal structures of lithium compounds used in lithium-ion batteries are often studied. Magnesium cation is particularly interesting due to its high availability, significantly lower cost and high theoretical capacity. [1] In this work, the glycine-nitrate method (GNM) was applied for the synthesis of cathode material MgMn2O4 after which its electrochemical properties were studied. As it is known that the addition of chromium ions to the lithium form of this compound increases the stability of capacity during cycling [2,3], the glycine-nitrate method was also used to synthesize MgCr0.15Mn1.85O4. One part of the synthesized MgCr0.15Mn1.85O4 was annealed at 700 oC, and the other part at 800 oC, and all three of the obtained materials were tested in parallel. Structural analysis of the materials was performed by X-ray diffraction and morphology was determined by scanning electron microscopy (FESEM). To study the electrochemical behavior of the materials the following methods were used: cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic cycling.

AB  - The development of safe, durable, cheap, and environmentally friendly batteries is one of the most important challenges of modern electrochemistry. Hence, there is an interest in the investigation of aqueous batteries with multivalent ions such as calcium, magnesium, or aluminium. Furthermore, the use of polyanionic compounds as cathode material can provide multi-electron transport. VOPO4·2H2O with its layered structure is a particularly interesting and promising material.
The current study is focused on the investigation of VOPO4·2H2O as cathode material in aluminium aqueous rechargeable cells. According to the literature data, the conventional reflux method is mostly used for the material’s synthesis [1]. Here is presented a sonochemical synthesis as a less time- and energy-consuming method, that starts from the mixture of vanadium(V)-oxide, phosphoric acid and water as a reaction media. The synthesis is done within 20 min.
The characterization of the synthesized material includes X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and cyclovoltammetry (CV).
XRD data were used for both the powders’ phase identification and crystal structure refinement. The structure of the powder was refined in the tetragonal space group P4/nmmZ (No. 129). Crystal structure refinement was based on the Rietveld full profile method [2]. The structure is characterized by infinite layers of PO4 tetrahedra linked to VO6 octahedra by shared oxygen atoms that form 2D sheets in the ab-planes; water molecules are located in the interlayer space. The refined cell parameters, a = b = 6.2136 Å, c = 7.4141 Å, are in good agreement with the literature data. Lattice parameter c is a measure of the interlayer distance, thus varies with water content. The value of the refined c parameter implies that the structure consists two water molecules per formula unit.
The working electrode is prepared from a slurry of sonochemically derived VOPO4·2H2O as an active material, carbon black, and a binder dispersed in a solvent. Two different binders are used: polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF), 2.4 wt% solution in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone or Nafion, 5 wt% solution in a mixture of lower aliphatic alcohols and water. Cyclic voltammetry measurements are done in several electrolytes to probe the intercalation of various cations such as magnesium, calcium, and aluminium. The best results are obtained when the electrode is cycled in 1M Al(NO3)3 aqueous solution.
This probably originates in different ionic radii.
During the process of electrode preparation, structural changes in the powder are noticed. The structural changes were followed step by step through the combined XRD and FTIR analysis. It turns out that the structure is prone to release water molecules even when the powder is mixed with carbon black and also with the addition of a solvent, which could lead to the formation of a bilayered vanadyl phosphate. It was shown that using different solvents has a diverse impact on the structure, and consequently on powders’ cyclic performances.

AB  - The polyanion cathodes for Li-ion batteries, namely LiFePO4, Li2FeP2O7 and Li2FeSiO4, were synthesized by very short high-temperature treatment (approximately several minutes) and subsequent quenching. Methylcellulose—a polymer with thermally driven water solubility—was used as the medium in which the precursor solutions were dispersed prior to high temperature treatment. The methylcellulose pyrolytically decomposes to carbon, thus producing the polyanion material/carbon composites of LiFePO4/C, Li2FeP2O7/C and Li2FeSiO4/C. The obtained powders have reduced crystallinity and significant microstructural characteristics: low crystallite size and notable microstrain. They exhibit stable electrochemical performances in both aqueous and organic electrolyte. The broadening of existing peaks in cyclic voltammetry and/or the emergence of new broad peaks was attributed to the presence of the amorphous phase in the samples. In galvanostatic charge–discharge tests, the materials provided high capacities at low current densities, while the highest rate performance was demonstrated by olivine-phosphate when compared to the other two materials.

AB  - Cathodic material for sodium-ion rechargeable batteries based on NaxMnO2 were synthesized by glycine nitrate method and subsequent annealing at high temperatures. Different crystal structures with different morphologies were obtained depending on the annealing temperature: hexagonal layeredα-Na0.7MnO2.05 nanoplates were obtained at 850 °C, while 3-D tunnel structured Na0·4MnO2 and Na0·44MnO2, both with rod-like morphology, were obtained at 800 °C and 900 °C, respectively. The investigations of the electrochemical behavior of obtained cathodic materials in aqueous NaNO3 solution have shown that Na0·44MnO2 obtained at 900 °C has shown the best battery performance. Its initial discharge capacities are 123.5 mA h/g, 113.2 mA h/g, and 102.0 mA h/g at the high current densities of 1000, 2000 and 5000 mA/g, respectively.

AB  - The oxide mixtures xCuO-(1-x) MoO3 were synthesized by gel-combustion procedure. The existence of phase mixture CuO + Cu3Mo2O9 and MoO3 + CuMoO4 in CuO-rich and MoO3 -rich composition region, respectively, were evidenced. The constant heating rate thermogravimetry in hydrogen atmosphere revealed that the reduction reactions proceed within the two clearly separated temperature regions. On the basis of mass changes, the mechanism of reduction processes was discussed. The measurements revealed considerable inhibition of CuO reduction by MoO3, and huge acceleration of MoO3 → MoO2 reduction step by copper. The particularities found in this system were commented in relation to our similar studies in NiO-MoO3 and CuO-WO3 systems. For particular composition, x = 0.5, existing preferably in form of a-CuMoO4, kinetic parameters of reduction were determined. The composition of oxide mixture influenced the particle size and morphology of resulting metallic Cu-Mo composites.

AB  - Electrochemical and structural properties of LiV2O5 cathode were investigated. Obtained by solid state reaction at high temperature the material crystallized as gamma polymorph phase, γ-LiV2O5. The gamma structure provides two crystallographic sites to accommodate lithium ions, Li1 and Li2 position. Lithium insertion at these two sites occurs at two respective voltages versus lithium metal: ~3.6 V (Li1) and ~2.4 V (Li2). Intercalation at Li1 position is reversible in both organic and aqueous electrolyte and provides stable cycling performance at the high voltage. On the contrary, sluggish insertion/removal of Li+ at Li2 sites causes unstable performance and significant storage capacity fade at lower voltages. Lithium diffusion 3d landscape was determined by bond valence calculations applied on the γ-LiV2O5 phase, as well as on the metastable phases of γ′-V2O5 and ζ-Li2V2O5 that exist at high and low voltages respectively. The model was proposed based on inactivity of Li2 position of the metastable ζ-Li2V2O5 phase which provides explanation for the observed storage capacity loss at low voltages.

AB  - Fayalite Fe2SiO4 is synthesized by the solid-state reaction without ball milling. The obtained powder is further structurally and electrochemically examined. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) showed that microsized powder is obtained. X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) pattern is used for both phase identification and crystal structure Rietveld refinement. The structure is refined in the orthorhombic Pbnm space group. Mössbauer spectroscopy revealed traces of Fe3+ impurity. The bond valence mapping method is applied for the first time on Fe2SiO4 framework. It shows isolated, non-connected isosurfaces of constant E(Li), which further supports the assumptions of the conversion reactions. Electrochemical performances are investigated through galvanostatic cycling, cyclic voltammetry, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Ex-situ XRD and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analyses are combined to monitor phase change after galvanostatic cycling and to reveal the working mechanism during electrochemical lithiation.

AB  - For its capability to reversibly remove and insert lithium ions in the range of 0 ≤ x ≤ 1.4, gamma polymorph phase of LixV2O5 makes a solid candidate for cathode application in rechargeable batteries. Accommodation of lithium in concentrations higher than x ≈1.4 brings stability issues related to the transformation towards the metastable ζ phase, which significantly limits utilization of higher capacities the material could achieve. The presented investigation has been conducted on γ-LiV2O5 powder obtained via solid state reaction at high temperatures. Structural refinement of the prepared γ phase has been carried out. Based on bond valence analysis of γ as well as of metastable γ’ and ζ phase, which occur at low and high lithium concentrations, respectively, mechanism is proposed for the observed capacity decrease. Electrochemical characteristics of γ-LiV2O5 were investigated in both aqueous and organic electrolyte in the voltage range 4-2.3 V vs. Li+/Li in order to record performances of all three occurring phases, γ and both lithium poor γ’ (high voltage region) and lithium rich ζ (low voltage region). Ionic exchange of Li+ with Mg2+, Ca2+ and Al3+ in their respective aqueous electrolytes has been conducted to examine potential use of the material in the postlithium rechargeable batteries.

AB  - The electrochemical insertion of lithium ions in V2O5 produces various crystal structures depending on lithium concentration. Compositions with lithium content in the range of 1 ≤ x ≤ 1.8 take orthorhombic γ-LixV2O5 form. γ-LixV2O5 is capable to accommodate more than one lithium ion per formula unit and therefore interesting to be used as a cathode of lithium-ion battery. Here are
presented electrochemical performances of γ-LiV2O5 obtained through solid-state reaction. Before galvanostatic cycling the as-synthesized powder is characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscopy, and FTIR spectroscopy. The crystal structure of the powder is refined in the orthorhombic Pbnm space group. During galvanostatic cycling in a large potential window capacity decrease is observed. In order to reveal the origin of capacity decay the bond valence analysis was performed. It provided a model of lithium diffusion network for the γ-LixV2O5 phase, as well as for the end members obtained at low and high voltages.

AB  - Lithium-ion batteries are under intense scrutiny as alternative energy/power sources. Their electrochemistry is based on intercalation/deintercalation reactions of lithium ions within a crystal structure of an electrode material. Therefore, the structure itself determines both the electrode operating voltage and the transport pathways for lithium ions. Some oxide- and polyanion-based materials are synthesized by using ultrasonic spray pyrolysis method. The crystal structure refinement was based on the Rietveld full profile method. All relevant structural and microstructural crystal parameters that could be significant for electrochemical intercalation/deintercalation processes were determined. It was also shown that the structural and microstructural properties are significantly dependent on the synthesis condition. Electrochemical performances as cathode materials for lithium-ion batteries were examined through galvanostatic charge/discharge cycling. Galvanostatic cycling revealed variation in discharge curve profiles. It comes from different mechanism of lithium intercalation and also from the degree of structural order. Structural analyses revealed difference in the dimensionality of lithium-ion motion.

AB  - Functional nanomaterials have held a steady position at the frontier of materials science and engineering in the 21st century. “Molecular Designing of Nanoparticles with Controlled Morphological and Physicochemical Characteristics and Functional Materials Based on Them” was the title of the research project funded by the Ministry of Education, Science and Technological Development of the Republic of Serbia and performed between 2011 and 2019 in the interdisciplinary area of nanoscience and nanotechnologies. Research activities within this program were divided into five interrelated topics: 1) from molecules to nanoparticles; 2) advanced ceramics with improved functional properties; 3) electrode materials for lithium–ion batteries; 4) nano-calcium phosphate in preventive and regenerative medicine; 5) biodegradable microand nano-particles for the controlled delivery of medicaments. This report gives an insight into this bibliographically most impactful Serbian national project on nanotechnologies executed within the aforementioned nine-year cycle, 2011–2019, focusing here only on the results achieved in the past three years. The project provided an outstanding and internationally recognized contribution to synthesis, characterization and functional design of a number of materials systems, including pure and lanthanide–doped hydroxyapatite, zinc oxides, sodium cobaltates, lithium iron pyrophosphates, lithium iron silicates and a number of polymeric systems.

AB  - In this investigation, we have synthesized YbxY1-xF3 solid solutions by fluorination of yttrium and ytterbium sesquioxides with ammonium hydrogen difluoride. According to the XRD analysis, all synthesized YbxY1-xF3 samples have an orthorhombic crystal structure belonging to the β-YF3 structural type. The refinement of crystal structure was done by the Rietveld method within the Pnma space group using the TCH pseudo-Voigt function. The anisotropic peak broadening was analyzed, and the average apparent crystallite size is about 50 nm with a small anisotropy of shape, while the significant microstrain that is highly anisotropic is present in all samples. The temperature-dependent magnetic susceptibility was analyzed by applying the model of a free ion perturbed by the crystal field. We have obtained the effective magnetic quantum numbers Mieff of four Kramer's doublets of Yb3+ ion along with the entire crystal field splitting of the 2F7/2 manifold of Yb3+ in YF3. The acquired maximum energy splitting of the ground level is about 150 K in our most diluted samples. The field-dependent isothermal magnetization measurements were carried out at various temperatures and analyzed by classical Langevin function. Results obtained from magnetic measurements show that all YbxY1-xF3 (x ≠ 0) solid solutions exhibit pure paramagnetic behavior in the whole temperature range from 2 to 300 K, with a predominant antiferromagnetic exchange interactions.
