Synthesis, Structure and Microstructure of Bi1.5CuV1.5O7

Math Shivalingayya | R L Raibagkar

Abstract: Copper doped bismuth vanadate with nominal composition Bi1.5CuV1.5O7 was synthesized using classical solid state reaction method. X-ray analysis conform the formation of monoclinic phase in the as-prepared compound. Different grain size after primary investigation reveals the influence of dopant ions on the domain structure and its microstructure. The phase compositions behaviour was found to be strongly correlated with the partial substitution of heterovalent cation dopant. Energy dispersive spectra confirm the occurrence of stoichiometric elements within the synthesized compounds.
