    2021 - BURIMOVA, ANASTASIA; LEITE NETO, OSMAR F.; BOSCH-SANTOS, BRIANNA; CORREA, EDUARDO L.; PEREIRA, LUCIANO F.D.; SALES, TATIANE S.N.; RIBEIRO JUNIOR, IBERE S.; COSTA, MESSIAS S.; COSTA, CLEIDILANE; DANG, THANH T.; ZYABKIN, DMITRY; VAN STIPHOUT, KOEN K.F.; GERAMI, ADELEH M.; CORREIA, JOAO M.; SCHELL, JULIANA; CARBONARI, ARTUR W.
    The number of metastable phases, the capriciousness at changing external conditions, and lack of accurate description of local behavior already resulted in severe misinterpretation of experimental outcomes for vanadium oxides[1–3]. The scope of already implemented and potential applications of vanadium oxides is, indeed, impressive, particularly as a battery cathode for energy storage[ 4]. Doping is widely exploited as a means of application-oriented tuning of the material properties. The properties of each particular phase may be tuned by doping to satisfy specific requirements and/or improve the functional performance. In the work here reported, electric quadrupole interaction on 111mCd nuclei implanted in vanadium pentaoxide doped with different concentrations of Cd were measured with time-differential perturbed angular correlations (TDPAC). Pure V2O5 as well as doped with 1%, 5%, and 10% of Cd were measured at different temperatures. To correlate the results with the possible formation of different phases and compounds, samples of VO2, CdV2O6, and Cd2V2O7 were also measured. The intention is to provide a comprehensive description, at an atomic level, of the doping effects on the local crystal structure and the electronic structure around the impurity and the consequences on the properties of the host oxides. Preliminary results show that the probability of formation of cadmium vanadates is low but the temperature and atmosphere of measurements have an important effect on the local scale.

    Magnetic field at Ce impurities in La sites of LaBaMn2O6 double perovskites
    2019 - BOSCH-SANTOS, B.; NASCIMENTO, N.; SAIKI, M.; CORREA, E.L.; SALES, T.S.; PEREIRA, L.F.; CABRERA-PASCA, G.A.; CARBONARI, A.W.
    Magnetic behavior in LaBaMn2O6 double perovskite compounds has been investigated with various techniques, due to the rich variety of electromagnetic properties, such as a colossal magnetoresistance, charge and orbital ordering, and metal-insulator transition. In this paper, we have used a nuclear and short-range technique, the Perturbed Angular Correlation (PAC) spectroscopy, to investigate the magnetic hyperfine field at the 140Ce nucleus of Ce impurities occupying La sites. The radioactive 140La nuclei with a half-life of 40.8 h were produced by direct activation of natural La present in the samples through the irradiation with neutrons in the IEA-R1 nuclear research reactor of IPEN. The PAC measurements were carried out with a six BaF2 detector spectrometer at several temperatures between 10 K and 400 K. This double perovskite samples were synthesized by sol-gel route. The crystal structure was determined by X-ray diffraction and the analyses showed that this method produced perovskite oxides with cubic structure in Pm-3m space group. This phase occurs due to an oxygen deficiency. The local properties investigated by PAC spectroscopy revealed a ferromagnetic transition temperature above 300 K and an anomalous behavior of the temperature dependence of magnetic hyperfine field at La sites, which can be ascribed to the contribution of 4f band of Ce to Bhf at low temperatures due to the increase in its localized character.

    Magnetic field at Ce impurities in La sites of La0.5Ba0.5MnO3 double perovskites
    2019 - BOSCH-SANTOS, B.; NASCIMENTO, N.M.; SAIKI, M.; CORREA, E.L.; SALES, T.S.N.; PEREIRA, L.F.D.; CABRERA-PASCA, G.A.; SAXENA, R.N.; SCHELL, J.; CARBONARI, A.W.
    Due to its rich variety of electromagnetic properties, such as a colossal magnetoresistance, charge and orbital ordering, and metal-insulator transition, the magnetic behavior in La0.5Ba0.5MnO3 double perovskite compounds has been investigated by several techniques, however more experimental data, especially from atomic resolution techniques, are still necessary to understand such complex behavior. In this paper, we have used a nuclear and short-range technique, the Perturbed Angular Correlation (PAC) spectroscopy, to investigate the magnetic hyperfine interaction at the 140Ce and 111Cd probe nuclei as impurities occupying La sites. This double perovskite samples were synthesized by Sol- Gel route. The crystal structure was determined by X-ray diffraction and the analyses showed that this method produced perovskite oxides with cubic structure in Pm-3m space group and the homogeneity was determined by Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM). The local properties investigated by PAC spectroscopy revealed a ferromagnetic transition temperature above 300 K and a pure antiferromagnetic interaction below 100 K. Moreover, it also indicates an anomalous behavior of the temperature dependence of magnetic hyperfine field at La sites measured with 140Ce probe nuclei, which can be ascribed to the contribution of 4f band of Ce to Magnetic Hyperfine Field (Bhf) at low temperatures due to the increase in its localized character.
