Abstract:
A series of vanadium substituted potassium hexagonal tungsten bronzes KxVyW1-yO3 (K-HTB) were prepared by conventional solid state method at 800 °C with compositions of x = 0.30 and 0.00 ? y ? 0.15. A mixture of K-HTB and non bronze phases with y ? 0.20 was observed. The proportion of this non bronze phase increases with increasing vanadium content. The non bronze phases in the mixture could not be indexed yet. In contrast, a very small amount of vanadium can be substituted in potassium tetragonal tungsten bronzes (K-TTB) at 800 °C with x = 0.50 and 0.00 ? y ? 0.02, however at 700 °C vanadium substituted K-TTB can be prepared with 0.00 ? y ? 0.05. Further substitution of vanadium in K-TTB decomposes to K-HTB and non-bronze phases. Keywords: Tungsten bronzes; Vanadium substituted bronze; Bronzoids. © 2012 JSR Publications.

Abstract:
Possibilities for `simple' octahedral tilting in the hexagonal and tetragonal tungsten bronzes (HTB and TTB) have been examined, making use of group theory as implemented in the computer programISOTROPY. For HTB, there is one obvious tilting pattern, leading to a structure in space groupP63/mmc. This differs from the space groupP63/mcmfrequently quoted from X-ray studies – these studies have in effect detected only displacements of the W cations from the centres of the WO6octahedra. The correct space group, taking account of both W ion displacement and the octahedral tilting, isP6322 – structures in this space group and matching this description have been reported. A second acceptable tilting pattern has been found, leading to a structure inP6/mmmbut on a larger `2 × 2 × 2' unit cell – however, no observations of this structure have been reported. For TTB, a search at the special points of the Brillouin zones revealed only one comparable tilting pattern, in a structure with space-group symmetryI4/mon a `21/2 × 21/2by 2' unit cell. Given several literature reports of larger unit cells for TTB, we conducted a limited search along the lines of symmetry and found structures with acceptable tilt patterns inBbmmon a `21/22 × 21/2 × 2' unit cell. A non-centrosymmetric version has been reported in niobates, inBbm2 on the same unit cell.

Abstract:
Tetragonal tungsten bronze (TTB) oxides are one of the most important classes of ferroelectrics. Many of these framework structures undergo ferroelastic transformations related to octahedron tilting deformations. Such tilting deformations are closely related to the rigid unit modes (RUMs). This paper discusses the whole set of RUMs in an ideal TTB lattice and possible crystal structures which can emerge owing to the condensation of some of them. Analysis of available experimental data for the TTB-like niobates lends credence to the obtained theoretical predictions.

Abstract:
A series of compounds KxTayW1-yO3 with x = 0.30, 0.00 ? y ? 0.30 and x = 0.55, 0.00 ? y ? 0.10 were synthesized by conventional solid-state method. The samples were characterized using XRD and FTIR spectroscopy. X-ray powder patterns reveal that the samples with compositions x = 0.30, y ? 0.30 show hexagonal tungsten bronze (HTB) type phase and the samples with x = 0.55, 0.02 ? y ? 0.10 show a mixture of two phases (K-HTB and tetragonal potassium tungsten bronze, K-TTB). The samples of the system, K0.30TayW1-yO3 with 0.00 ? y ? 0.15 shows no significant change in the cell parameters. However, for the composition y > 0.15, the cell parameter a decreases and c increases with increasing Ta content, which may be explained by the ordering of Ta for y > 0.15 suggesting the transformation to another space group. The appearance of absorption peak in the infrared absorption spectra of K0.3TayW1-yO3, y > 0.10 samples indicate the transition to non-metallic phase.

Orange-red lead titanate thin films are examined by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and diffraction. It is remarkable that the structure is based on that of tetragonal-tungsten-bronze (TTB) rather than perovskite-type. The chemical basis for this result is examined, it is deduced that the TTB structure is stabilized by inclusion of hydroxyl ions during synthesis by a sol–gel route involving hydrolysis of n-Butyl titanate.

Abstract:
The evaluation of HAADF-STEM images of a sample with the composition Nb18W16O93 provided new insights into its real structure. The basic structure comprises an intact octahedral framework of the tetragonal tungsten bronze (TTB) type. The partial occupation of the pentagonal tunnels (PT) by metal–oxygen strings determines the oxygen-to-metal ratio (O/ΣM with M = Nb,W). For a large area, the O/ΣM was determined to be 2.755, which is bigger than the value of Nb18W16O93, which is O/ΣM = 2.735. To a large extent, the three-fold TTB superstructure of Nb8W9O47 with a high oxygen content is present (O/ΣM = 2.765). In addition, a new four-fold TTB superstructure was found in small domains. Nb12W11O63 with an O/ΣM = 2.739 obviously accommodates part of the sample’s metal excess compared to the stable phase Nb8W9O47.

Abstract:
Two superstructures of the TTB type (tetragonal tungsten bronze) exist in the system Nb2O5/WO3. They are caused by an ordered arrangement of pentagonal tunnels filled with metal–oxygen strings. Besides the well known 4:9 phase (Nb8W9O47), which has a tripled b axis, evidence for a new orthorhombic structure, Nb6W8O39 (a = b = 27.3 Å), has been found. The oxidation products of Nb7W10O47 and Nb4W13O47 frequently comprise less-ordered arrangements of filled tunnels, causing diffuse scattering. In Nb7W10O47.5 the electron diffraction patterns (along [001]) of many crystal fragments show circular diffuse scattering, which appears around the main reflections of the TTB substructure with two distinct radii (r*). r* \simeq 0.33a* indicates the predominance of 4:9-type domains, whereas r* \simeq 0.41a* corresponds to Nb6W8O39. In Nb4W13O49 the diffuse scattering pattern is cross-shaped; this is due to the presence of long slabs of diamond-linked pentagonal columns. Structure models for these particular states of order have been derived from high-resolution transmission electron microscopy images. Some general principles for the formation of the different arrangements are deduced. Apparently, two distinct types of link between the filled pentagonal tunnels are important features which lead to the stability of these structures.

Abstract:
Niobates with tetragonal tungsten bronze TTB-type structure have presented great technological potential due to their dielectric, ferroelectric, pyroelectric properties. The preparation by the modified polyol method and structural characterization of K2Nd(1-x)EuxNb5O15 nanopowders, where x = 0; 0.0025; 0.025; 0.05 e 0.1, were investigated. The structural parameters were analyzed as a function of concentration of europium ions in the K2NdNb5O15 host structure using the Rietveld method. From structural parameters was determined the TTB-type structure with tetragonal symmetry, where the pentagonal sites is occupied by K+ and Eu3+ ions and tetragonal sites is occupied only by Nd3+ ions. The addition of europium in the host structure led to a decrease in the lattice parameters, compatible with the increasing degree of distortion of NbO6 polyhedra. The average crystallite size showed values between 18.25 and 26nm.

Abstract:
CBN crystals show a one- and a two-dimensionally modulated modification. The former is isotypic with orthorhombic Ba4Na2Nb10O30and the latter with the tetragonal tungsten bronze type of crystal structure. The orthorhombic form irreversibly transforms to the tetragonal polymorph at the ferroelectric phase transition near 603 K. Orthorhombic and tetragonal CBN24 slightly differ in the distribution of the Ba and Ca atoms over the incompletely filled Me1 and Me2 sites. The tetragonal symmetry is further broken in orthorhombic CBN24 by different amplitudes of the positional modulations of O atoms which are symmetrically equivalent in the TTB structure. A similar orthorhombic phase of CBN31 could be obtained by quenching from 1473 K.

Abstract:
Multiferroic materials showing coupling of the different order parameters (ferroelectric, ferromagnetic, ferroelastic) are interesting not only from a fundamental perspective, but also from a technological point of view, e.g. for to the development of new storage technologies. However, the coexistence of (ferro)magnetism and ferroelectricity is considered a rare phenomenon. Whilst this may be true for perovskite oxides, where emptyd-shells favor the off-centering of ions but counteract magnetism, this intrinsic limitation can be avoided by moving to different structure types, and/or away from oxides. An example of non-perovskite, non-oxide multiferroic systems are the tetragonal tungsten bronze (TTB) fluorides KxM2+xM3+1+xF3(x= 0.4 – 0.6), which show coexistence of electric and magnetic ordering 1. Here we present a detailed structural study on a series of TTB fluorides, KxMnxFe1+xF3(x = 0.4 – 0.55). KMnFeF6has been previously described as tetragonalP42bcand orders ferrimagnetically belowT = 148 K 2. Additional satellite reflections were found in transmission electron microscopy experiments and attributed to ferroelastic domains arising from tilting ofMF6octahedra, but the reported bulk powder XRD measurements indicated only tetragonal symmetry 3. We used high-resolution powder diffraction techniques to reinvestigate the crystal structure as a function of temperature in comparison with DSC data. Our results reveal a structural distortion to orthorhombic symmetry (Ccc2) at room temperature, which diminished when moving to the end members of the series (x → 0.4 andx → 0.6). Although structurally subtle, this distortion may indicate a ferroelectric state, similar to KxFeF3, where ferroelectricity is observed only in the orthorhombic phase. On heating, an anomaly in thec-axis lattice parameter accompanies a phase transition to centrosymmetricP42/mbcaround 320 – 350 K, marking the transition from ferroelectric – paraelectric state.

Abstract:
AbstractSince the 1970s, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) is well established as the most appropriate method to explore the structural complexity of niobium tungsten oxides. Today, scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) represents an important alternative for performing the structural characterization of such oxides. STEM images recorded with a high-angle annular dark field (HAADF) detector provide not only information about the cation positions but also about the distribution of niobium and tungsten as the intensity is directly correlated to the local scattering potential. The applicability of this method is demonstrated here for the characterization of the real structure of Nb7W10O47.5. This sample contains well-ordered domains of Nb8W9O47 and Nb4W7O31 besides little ordered areas according to HRTEM results. Structural models for Nb4W7O31 and twinning occurring in this phase have been derived from the interpretation of HAADF-STEM images. A remarkable grain boundary between well-ordered domains of Nb4W7O31 and Nb8W9O47 has been found that contains one-dimensionally periodic features. Furthermore, short-range order observed in less ordered areas could be attributed to an intimate intergrowth of small sections of different tetragonal tungsten bronze (TTB) based structures.

Tetragonal Tungsten Bronze structure TTB-type structure has attracted interest by the high anisotropy of the crystal structure. The dielectric characterization of iron-doped niobate of TTB-type structure, with stoichiometry KSr2(Fe0.25Nb4.75)O15-δ, prepared by Modified Polyol Method was investigated. Nanocrystalline single phase powders were obtained after calcination of the precursor powder at 1150 °C for 10 hours in an oxygen atmosphere. The dielectric characterization was performed by impedance spectroscopy, from room temperature to 600 °C, in the frequency range of 5 Hz to 13 MHz. The permittivity values obtained for KSr2(Fe0.25Nb4.75)O15-δshowed superior to the permittivity values of the KSr2Nb5O15host structure in all temperature range investigated. At room temperature, the permittivity values (2100) of KSr2(Fe0.25Nb4.75)O15-δis two times the permittivity values of KSr2Nb5O15. The substitution of niobium cation by iron cation in the KSr2Nb5O15host structure showed a suppression of the ferroelectric (P4bm)→paraelectric (P4/mbm) phase transition.

Single phase and crystalline powders of tetragonal symmetry with non-centrosymmetric space group P4bm were obtained. The diffuse reflectance spectra were similar to the profile of a semiconductor material with the presence of thin transitions of Eu3+ in europium-doped K2NdNb5O15, as well as the transitions of Nd3+. The method of Kubelka-Munk was used for the estimation of bandgap energy. The values around 3.7 eV showed small variation with the concentration of Eu3+ ions in the K2NdNb5O15 host structure.

Abstract:
The local structure of the filled tetragonal tungsten bronze (TTB) niobate Ba3Nb5−xTixO15 (x = 0, 0.1, 0.7, 1.0), showing a metal-insulator transition with Ti substitution, has been studied by Nb K-edge extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) measurements as a function of temperature. The Ti substitution has been found to have a substantial effect on the local structure, that remains largely temperature independent in the studied temperature range of 80–400 K. The Nb-O bonds distribution shows an increased octahedral distortion induced by Ti substitution, while Nb-Ba distances are marginally affected. The Nb-O bonds are stiffer in the Ti substituted samples, which is revealed by the temperature dependent mean square relative displacements (MSRDs). Furthermore, there is an overall increase in the configurational disorder while the system with Nb 4d electrons turns insulating. The results underline a clear relationship between the local structure and the electronic transport properties suggesting that the metal-insulator transition and possible thermoelectric properties of TTB structured niobates can be tuned by disorder.

Abstract:
Using the solid-state process, the new compound Ba0.54Na0.46Nb1.29W0.37O5 was effectively produced in a single crystalline phase. The material’s characteristics were determined by X-ray diffraction and Raman techniques. The Rietveld method was applied to refine the structural properties of this sample using X-ray diffraction data and derive the diffraction line profile. The cell parameters a = b = 12.37843 ± 0.02 and c = 3.93526 ± 0.02 were accustomed to crystallizing this compound in the tetragonal tungsten bronze (TTB) structure of the space group P4bm. Thanks to Raman measurements, we were able to detect numerous vibration modes in this crystalline phase. The adsorption of methylene blue (MB) on crystalline phase was studied by UV–visible spectroscopy. On account of methylene blue adsorption on Ba0.54Na0.46Nb1.29W0.37O5, it was discovered that this material can be used to remove organic pollutants and thus be used for water treatment.

Abstract:
Ceramics of strontium barium niobate (Sr0.6Ba0.4Nb2O6, SBN40), having the tetragonal tungsten bronze (TTB) structure, were prepared by a conventional processing route; sintering at temperatures in the range 1573–1723 K yielded products with three types of microstructure. Incommensurate superstructures were investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Modulation of the incommensurate superstructure (ICS) depended on microstructural development. The lowest-order ICS modulation was a common feature in all the SBN40 ceramics, regardless of microstructure. (h+1/2,h+1/2,l) reflections and unusually low δ (incommensurability parameter) were observed in SBN40 specimens having abnormally large grains and thus a certain degree ofA-site ordering was expected. Transparent SBN40 ceramics which exhibited large homogeneous grains were characterized by a shortenedcaxis, intense [001] X-ray diffraction reflections, a multiplication of (110) and (001) cell spacings and the appearance of higher-order ICS reflections. Planar defects, having the thickness of one d_{110} spacing, were observed aligned along \{110\}. The development of a higher-order structural modulation and of ICS reflections is believed to reduce the structural energy; the development of planar defects appears to stabilize the incommensurate phase.

K0.5Na0.5NbO3 (KNN) is one of the leading lead free piezoelectric materials being considered as an alternativeto Pb(Zrx,Ti1-x)O3 (PZT), which is currently the most widely used material for electromechanical applications. Although pure KNN has inferior electromechanical properties compared to PZT,efforts are on going to tailor and improve its piezoelectric coefficients by doping and texturing.Although the piezoelectric constant (d33) of undoped KNN is unsuitable for practical electromechanical applications, properties comparable to PZT at room temperature (d33>400 pC/N) have been reported for modified KNN ceramics. Electromechanical properties are however, very much dependent on the crystalline phase content, crystallographic orientation, microstructure, interfaces and domain configuration.Mn is an indispensable dopant for both PbO-based as well as PbO-free ceramics like BaTiO3, SrTiO3, KNbO3 and KTaO3. It has been reported to improve the density, mechanical quality factor, electromechanical properties and to reduce dielectric loss. Mn has been successfully used to reduce the leakage current and lower the orthorhombic to tetragonal phase transition temperature (TO-T) in KNN single crystals. It has also been shown to improve the density and properties of KNN–LiTaO3–LiSbO3. However, the effect of Mn on the KNN domain structure and phase assemblage has not yet been reported. In this work, KNN ceramics doped with Mn on the B-site (Mn content was 0.5, 1.0. 1.5 and 2 mole%) were synthesized by a conventional mixed oxide method. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM)(Hitachi 9000) studies were carried out to analyse the effect of B-site Mn doping on the ferroelectric domain structure and phase assemblage.Undoped KNN ceramics had large grains (>30 >m) which contained large (>1 >m wide) wedge shaped ferroelectric domains. KNN doped with 0.5 mole % Mn exhibited a smaller grain size (~2 mm) in which a well defined domain structure was observed with widths approximately an order of magnitude smaller than those in undoped KNN. For KNN doped with 2 mole % Mn, the presence of a second phase, Figure 1c, was often observed. Electron diffraction patterns from the second phase were consistent with a tetragonal tungsten bronze (TTB) structured compound although more work is required to definitively determine the phase assemblage. The domain structure became increasing complex as Mn concentration increased, suggesting that the presence of Mn on the B-site disrupts polar order.In conclusion, TEM analysis demonstrated that Mn doping changes the domain structure of KNN ceramics: for low Mn content, well defined ferroelectric domains and for high Mn content, tangled domains and second phase were the main features.These microstructure details elucidate reasons that may account for the inferior piezoelectric properties of KNN at higher Mn concentration.

Abstract:
We discuss the strategy for development of novel functional materials with the tetragonal tungsten bronze structure. From the starting composition Ba 6 GaNb 9 O 30 , the effect of A- and B-site substitutions on the dielectric properties is used to develop an understanding of the origin and stability of the dipolar response in these compounds. Both tetragonal strain induced by large B-site cations and local strain variations created by isovalent A-site substitutions enhance dipole stability but result in a dilute, weakly correlated dipolar response and canonical relaxor behaviour. Decreasing cation size at the perovskite A2-site increases the dipolar displacements in the surrounding octahedra, but insufficiently to result in dipole ordering. Mechanisms introducing small A-site lanthanide cations and incorporation of A-site vacancies to induce ferroelectricity and magnetism are presented.

Abstract:
The versatile crystal structure of tetragonal tungsten bronzes (A12A24C4B10O30) can accommodate complex stoichiometries including cations in different valence states and vacant cation sites. Here, we report on the effect of thermally induced cation-vacancy disorder in the tetragonal tungsten bronze SrxBa1−xNb2O6 (SBNX). SBNX (x = 0.25, 0.33, 0.50, 0.61) ceramics, prepared by conventional solid-state synthesis, were annealed at varying temperatures and subsequently quenched to room temperature. The Curie temperature of all the SBNX materials increased with higher quenching temperatures, accompanied with ferroelectric hardening. The variation in thermal history also caused structural changes, specifically a contraction of the a lattice parameter and a minor elongation of the c parameter. These effects are discussed in relation to recent first principles calculations of the energy landscape of the cation-vacancy configurations and experimental evidence of thermally induced cation-vacancy disordering.

Abstract:
В работе измерены спектральные зависимости оптической плотности аморфных тонких пленок оксидной натрий-вольфрамовой бронзы тетрагональной структуры состава NaWO, конденсированной на стеклянные подложки, термостатированные при температурах 373,473 и 573 K, а так же отожженные на воздухе и в вакууме, и электрохромно окрашенных. В качестве исследуемой оптической характеристики была выбрана оптическая плотность D, пропорциональная, как известно, коэффициенту поглощения. Спектральные измерения пленок, осажденных на подложки в диапазоне температур 373,473 и 573 K показали однотипность спектральных характеристик, с пиком экситонного поглощения в ближнем ультрафиолете. Полоса минимального поглощения лежит в диапазоне длин волн 400÷460 нм, а примесного поглощения - широкой полосой в области 650 ÷1000 нм с максимумом в диапазоне 900÷1000 нм. Подобная спектральная характеристика и определяет сине-голубой цвет тонкой пленки на просвет. Изучение оптических свойств тонких пленок натрий-вольфрамовых бронз представляет собой актуальную задачу. The spectral dependences were measured of the optical density of amorphous thin films of sodium-tungsten oxide bronze of the tetragonal structure and the composition NaWO, condensed on glass substrates, thermostated at temperatures of 373, 473 and 573 K, as well as annealed in air vacuum, and electrochromically colored. The optical density D, which is proportional, as is known, to the absorption coefficient, was chosen as the studied optical characteristic. Spectral measurements of films deposited on substrates in the temperature range of 373, 473 and 573 K showed the same type of spectral characteristics, with a peak of the exciton absorption in the near ultraviolet. The band of minimum absorption lies in the wavelength range of 400÷460 nm, while that of the impurity absorption is a wide band in the region of 650÷1000 nm with a maximum in the range of 900÷1000 nm. This spectral characteristic determines the blue-blue color of a thin film in transmission. The study of the optical properties of thin films of sodium-tungsten bronzes is an urgent problem.

It has been established that similar existence areas and similar correlations between the interatomic bond strains in their structures, on the one hand, and the temperatures of their ferroelectric or antiferroelectric phase transitions, on the other hand, are observed for all of them, despite the differences in the compositions and structures of these oxides, but taking into account their similar parameters.
