example

[0074] The following examples are provided to further illustrate certain embodiments of the invention. These are not intended to limit the invention to the components, compositions, systems, techniques or methods described in these examples. Unless indicated otherwise, parts are parts by weight, temperature is in °C or is at ambient temperature, and pressure is at or near atmospheric.

example 1

[0075] Example 1: Synthesis of TNO

[0076] TNO is prepared by sol-gel technique. Use Nb 2 o 5 (Alfa, 99.9%), hydrofluoric acid (40 / 70HF / H 2 O), Ti(OC 3 h 7 ) 4 , ammonia and citric acid monohydrate as starting materials. First, the Nb 2 o 5 Dissolve in hydrofluoric acid to form a clear solution. To remove F- ions from solution, ammonia is added to obtain white Nb(OH) 5 precipitation. After the precipitate was washed and dried, the Nb(OH) 5 Dissolve in citric acid to form a citrate Nb(V) solution. To this solution was added Ti(OC 3 h 7 ) 4 water-ethanol solution, while using ammonia to adjust the pH of the solution. This final mixture containing Nb(V) and Ti(IV) ions was stirred at 90°C to form a citrate gel. This gel was heated to 140°C to obtain the precursor. The precursor was then annealed at 900°C and at 1350°C to obtain the TNO product.

example 2

[0077] Example 2: Synthesis of DTNO

[0078] DTNO is prepared by conventional solid-state reactions. The stoichiometric amount of starting material Nb 2 o 5 (Alfa, 99.9%), Nb (Alfa, 99.9%) and TiO 2 (Alfa, 99.9%) is thoroughly ground and pressed into pellets. The pellet was wrapped in Ta foil, sealed in a vacuum quartz tube and annealed at 1100 °C for 24 hours.
