Abstract:
Materials capable for use in energy generation have been actively investigated recently. Thermoelectrics, photovoltaics and electronic/ionic conductors are considered as a part of the modern energy system. Layered perovskites have many attractions, as materials with high conductivity. Gadolinium-doped layered perovskite BaLaInO4 was obtained and investigated for the first time. The high values of conductivity were proved. The composition BaLa0.9Gd0.1InO4 demonstrates predominantly protonic transport under wet air and low temperatures (<400 °C). The doping by rare earth metals of layered perovskite is a prospective method for significantly improving conductivity.

Colors and Magnetism
When atoms or molecules absorb light at the proper frequency, their electrons are excited to higher-energy orbitals. For many main group atoms and molecules, the absorbed photons are in the ultraviolet range of the electromagnetic spectrum, which cannot be detected by the human eye. For coordination compounds, the energy difference between the d orbitals often allows photons in the visible range to be absorbed and emitted, which is seen as colors by the human...
