Item Chlorination and Solvothermal Treatment of Zr(C5H5)2Cl2: a Synthetic Combination to Produce Nanometric Tetragonal ZrO2.(Inorganic Chemistry, 2011) Ávila Brande, D.; Perezzan, Ramiro; Urones Garrote, E.; Otero Díaz, L.C.A novel synthetic strategy based on the combination of the chlorination of an organometallic precursor followed by solvothermal treatment is found to be successful in the synthesis of tetragonal nano-ZrO2 or nano-ZrO2, embedded in an amorphous carbon matrix, depending on the solvent employed in the solvothermal step. The chemical and structural features (chemical composition, size and surface defects) of the intermediate and final materials have been determined experimentally mainly by high resolution transmission electron microscopy, electron energy loss spectroscopy, and Z-contrast images. These local techniques reveal that the nanoparticles consist of tetragonal ZrO2 with an average size of 1.7 ± 0.4 and 6.2 ± 0.9 nm for the embedded in carbon and the free nano-ZrO2, respectively.Item Electron Microscopy Characterization of Nanometric ZrO2 and Er2O2S Synthetized from Organometallic Precursors.(Microscopy and Microanalysis, 2012) Ávila Brande, D.; González Rubio, G.; Otero Díaz, L.; Perezzan, Ramiro; Urones Garrote, E.
