Ti-Ca-Al-doped YCrO3 pigments: XRD and UV-vis investigation

Ardit M, Dondi M, Cruciani G, Matteucci F

Compounds based on the YCrO3 perovskite structure, doped with Al, Ti and Ca, were studied by XRD and DRS, aiming at assessing their potential as green ceramic pigments. Nine samples were synthesized by the ceramic route according to the Y1-yCayCr1-x-yAlxTiyO3 stoichiometry, where 0
