Local Defect Arrays in Oxides.

Abstract

The goals of this grant were three-fold: (1) To develop quantitative techniques for the analysis of the diffuse x-ray scattering from oxides. The diffuse scattering is a function of many (often overlapping) interionic pair probabilities. (2) The monoxides of the first transition series of elements have a unique variation in properties. They are metallic conductors for the low atomic number end of the series, but semiconductors for the high atomic numbers. Is there a link between the defect arrangement and this behavior? (3) To clarify the defect arrays in stabilized zirconia. The studies have concentrated on VO2, VOx, TiOx, Zr(Ca)O2-x and Zr(Y)O(2-x).
