Physical properties of fluorides barium and calcium nanopowders produced by the pulsed electron beam evaporation method

摘要

The mesoporous nanocrystal powders BaFSUB2/SUB and CaFSUB2/SUB with a specific surface up to 34.8 and 88.7 sq.m/g, respectively, are produced by the pulsed electron beam evaporation method in vacuum. The influence of thermal annealing of nanoparticles on air in the range of temperature from 200 to 900°C on the size, morphology of particles and change of their magnetic and luminescent properties investigated have been investigared. The essential stoichiometric impurity (overage of metals) and significant growth in a specific surface of nanopowders (NP) BaFSUB2/SUB and CaFSUB2/SUB after annealing at the temperature of 200°C have been detected. It is established that the synthesized NP BaFSUB2/SUB is a paramagnetic while initial material in the bulk state is diamagnetic. After annealing at 900°C appears the small ferromagnetic contribution at NP BaFSUB2/SUB. Produced NP CaFSUB2/SUB showed ferromagnetic behavior. In literature there is no information about the ferromagnetism of CaFSUB2/SUB. Appearance of the ferromagnetic response can be explained with formation of structural and radiation defects (F-centers, etc.). The analysis of PCL and magnetization curves of samples BaFSUB2/SUB and CaFSUB2/SUB allows drawing conclusions about their connection.
