The partial replacement of Ca2+ ions with Eu3+ in the Ca3Co3.95Ga0.05O9+delta system to give polycrystalline samples of Ca3-xEuxCo4O9+delta (x = 0.00, 0.05, and 0.10) was performed in order to assess the effect that the dopant had on thermoelectric properties of this system. ...
The thermoelectric and magnetic properties of the Ca3Co4-xCuxO9+delta system where x = 0, 0.05, 0.07, 0.10, and 0.15 were investigated as materials of this type have potential for use in thermoelectric generators. The goal of this work was to identify the sample in this system having the highest ...
Two series of co-doped mifit-layered cobaltites were prepared with compositions of Ca3-xYbxCo4-yAgyO9+delta and Ca3-xEuxCo4-yAgyO9+delta. All of the samples exhibited an increasing thermopower as temperature was increased up to a temperature of 700 K. The sample with the highest power factor ...
A Portland cement-based composite was made using a copolymer as one of the ingredients, and the potential of the composite for the production of non-structural masonry systems was evaluated. It was found that the composite had a similar performance to that of commercial cellular concretes. ...
