Electrical conductivity of Nd and Ce co-doped Gd2Zr2O7 ceramics

In this study, (Gd_{1? x} Nd _x )₂(Zr_{1? x} Ce _x )₂O₇ (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.5) ceramics have been prepared by pressureless sintering at 1973 K to investigate the influence of Nd and Ce co-doping on their electrical conductivity. The electrical conductivity of the ceramics was investigated by impedance spectroscopy measurements from 723 to 1173 K over the frequency range of 20 Hz to 2 MHz in air. The measured values obey the Arrhenius relation. For each composition, the grain conductivity gradually increases with increasing temperature from 723 to 1173 K. At a given temperature, it gradually decreases with increasing neodymium and cerium contents from x = 0 to 0.3; thereafter, the grain conductivity exhibits a slight increase with further increasing neodymium and cerium contents up to x = 0.5.     

《战国策·齐策》蕴涵的东夷文化

由战国时期各国史官或策士辑录而成的《战国策》,折射出各国传统文化的特征并显现出一定的地域文化特色。《齐策》中体现的地域文化也鲜明地异于它策,然而这种有其深厚的文化渊源的地域文化蕴含着多种文化元素。齐国乃东夷族世代居住之地,在意识形态领域保留了东夷文化的基础,东夷文化是它的源头。在《齐策》中东夷文化主要体现为：尚武的风习;古老的婚恋习俗以及占卜的遗风等。     

Studies of interaction between He and elements with mass number 140 in Fe by time-differential perturbed-angular-correlation measurements

Room-temperature time-differential perturbed-angular-correlation (TDPAC) spectra of ¹⁴⁰Ce arising through ¹⁴⁰Ba-¹⁴⁰La from ¹⁴⁰Cs in He-doped Fe, unannealed and annealed in vacuum at various temperatures, were obtained in order to examine whether Ce (or rather, La and Ba) and He form complexes having a definite geometrical structure in Fe, as suggested by first-principles density-functional theory calculations. No clear signal of such complexes was observed in the TDPAC spectra. However, the TDPAC spectra indicate that Ce and He form complexes having a variety of geometrical structures. Comparison with reported TDPAC results on ¹¹¹Cd arising from ¹¹¹In in He-doped stainless steel shows that the parent atoms (La and Ba) of ¹⁴⁰Ce trap He atoms more efficiently than In atoms do, indicating stronger bonding of He to the former atoms, while different from the present case, ¹¹¹Cd (In)–He complexes form a unique geometrical structure.
