We succeeded in synthesizing the powder samples of bilayer-hydrate sodium cobalt oxide superconductors NaxCoO2-yH2O with Tc = 0 ~ 4.6 K by systematically changing the keeping duration in a 75 % relative humidity atmosphere after…

The structural properties of NaxCoO2 and NaxCoO2yH2O have been investigated. The NaxCoO2yH2O samples in general show up the superconducting transitions at around 3.5K. EDAX analyses suggest our samples have the average composition of…

We have investigated the structure of Co$_2$CO$_3$(OH)$_2$ using Density Functional Theory (DFT) simulations as well as Powder X-Ray Diffraction (PXRD) measurements on samples synthesized via deposition from aqueous solution. We consider…

Measurements of polarization and temperature dependent soft x-ray absorption have been performed on Na_xCoO_2 single crystals with x=0.4 and x=0.6. They show a deviation of the local trigonal symmetry of the CoO_6 octahedra, which is…

The solid-state reaction was used to synthesize CoO2 nanostructured material. Cobalt nitrate tetrahydrate and sodium oxide (NaOH) were combined to produce CoO2 nanostructured material. The three synthesized working electrodes were each…

This paper aims to study Na doping in Bi-2212 superconducting ceramics. Na-doped Bi-2212 samples powders with a Bi2-uSr2-vCa1-wCu2-xNayOz stoichiometry are prepared by means of thermal treatments. The intended Na substitution level, y, is…

Crystallographic, magnetic and NMR properties of a NaxCoO2 single crystal with x~1 are presented. We identify the stoichiometric Na1CoO2 phase, which is shown to be a non-magnetic insulator, as expected for homogeneous planes of Co3+ ions…

We report here the synthesis of single-phase bulk samples of CoO2, the x = 0 end member of the AxCoO2 systems (A = Li, Na), from a pristine LiCoO2 sample using an electrochemical technique to completely de-intercalate lithium. Thus,…

We performed neutron powder diffraction measurements on (Bi$_{0.5}$Na$_{0.5+x}$)TiO$_3$ and (Bi$_{0.5+y}$Na$_{0.5}$)TiO$_3$ to study structural evolution induced by the non-stoichiometry. Despite the non-stoichiometry, the local structure…

The magnetic properties and structure of LixCoO2 for x between 0.5 and 1.0 are reported. Co4+ is found to be high-spin in LixCoO2 for x between 0.94 and 1.0 and low-spin for x between 0.50 and 0.78. Weak antiferromagnetic coupling is…

Neutron and x-ray diffraction measurements are presented for powders and single crystals of CaCo{1.86}As2. The crystal structure is a collapsed-tetragonal ThCr2Si2-type structure as previously reported, but with 7(1)% vacancies on the Co…

We have synthesized and characterized different stable phases of sodium cobaltates Na$_{x}$CoO$_{2}$ with sodium content $0.65<x<0.80$. We demonstrate that $^{23}$Na NMR allows to determine the difference in the susceptibility of the phases…

Compounds harboring active valence electrons, such as unconventional stoichiometric compounds of main group elements including sodium, chlorine, and carbon, have conventionally been perceived as unstable under ambient conditions, requiring…

Synchrotron X-ray diffraction investigations of two single crystals of Na_xCoO_2 from different batches with composition x = 0.525-0.530 reveal homogeneous incommensurate sodium ordering with propagation vector (0.53 0.53 0) at…

Effect of oxygen off-stoichiometry on the structural and magnetic properties of La0.15Sr0.85MnO3-d (d = 0.02,0.14) has been studied employing low-temperature x-ray diffraction, calorimetry, electrical-transport and magnetization. The nearly…

Phase diagram of Na$_x$CoO$_2$ (x $\gtrsim$ 0.71) has been reinvestigated using electrochemically fine tuned single crystals. Both phase separation and staging phenomena as a result of sodium multi-vacancy cluster ordering have been found.…

Neutron scattering has been used to investigate the crystal structure and lattice dynamics of superconducting Na0.3CoO2 1.4(H/D)2O, and the parent Na0.3CoO2 material. The structure of Na0.3CoO2 consists of alternate layers of CoO2 and Na…

Sodium layered oxides often undergo phase transformations involving ordering or disordering of Na+ upon desodiation, i.e., when cycled as a battery electrode. Accurately characterizing these phases is crucial for understanding functional…

The hydration phase diagram for sodium cobalt oxyhydrate, Na0.3CoO2*yH2O (y=0, 0.6, 1.3), was determined as a function of relative humidity at 298K. It is found that greater than 75% relative humidity is needed for complete hydration of…

In this work, we investigated the behaviour of Sb dopants in $Na_{x}CoO_{2}$ for Na concentrations of $x = 0.75, 0.875$ and $1.00$ by density functional theory. We chose $Na_{x}CoO_{2}$ with higher Na concentration of $x > 0.75$ because it…
