EFFECT OF LOW-TEMPERATURE ANNEALING IN AIR ON THE DEFECT STRUCTURE OF OXIDE NANOPARTICLES

DOI: 10.17804/2410-9908.2023.6.026-034

It has been found that low-temperature annealing in air changes the defect structure of YSZ10 oxide nanoparticles synthesized by means of the laser evaporation of a ceramic target. The study is carried out with the use of deuterium probes. At a temperature of 350 ℃, with increasing annealing time, a monotonic decrease in the concentration of oxygen vacancies near the surface of nanoparticles is observed. This dependence is extreme at 200 ℃; at its first stage, the concentration of vacancies in the surface atomic layer of nanoparticles increases with time. An approach is proposed for the synthesis of nanoparticles with severe oxygen deficiency near the surface of oxide nanoparticles.

ВЛИЯНИЕ НИЗКОТЕМПЕРАТУРНЫХ ОТЖИГОВ НА ВОЗДУХЕ НА ДЕФЕКТНУЮ СТРУКТУРУ ОКСИДНЫХ НАНОЧАСТИЦ

Установлено, что низкотемпературные отжиги на воздухе приводят к изменению дефектной структуры наночастиц оксида YSZ10, синтезированных по технологии лазерного испарения керамической мишени. Исследование выполнено с помощью методики дейтериевых зондов. При температуре 350 ℃ при увеличении времени отжига наблюдалось монотонное уменьшение концентрации кислородных вакансий вблизи поверхности наночастиц. При 200 ℃ эта зависимость была экстремальной, на ее первом этапе концентрация вакансий в поверхностном атомном слое наночастиц возрастала со временем. Предложен подход для синтеза наночастиц с сильным дефицитом кислорода вблизи поверхности оксидных наночастиц.
