Heat treatment and characterization of Yb doped barium cerate prepared via sol-Gel technique

The BaCe0.95Yb0.05O2.975 compound was successfully prepared by the sol-gel method using metal acetate salts as starting materials. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) results showed that the carbonate ions residue almost disappeared at calcination temperature of 1300ºC. Particles size of the final c...
