Abstract
The mixing of constituent ions on an atomic scale accomplished in single phase metal-organic precursors facilitates the occurrence and completion of the reactions such as decomposition, oxidation and reduction at reduced temperatures and in shorter times. This has been particularly shown for the first series of transition metals and for the lanthanide elements for which simple, and mixed oxides or their oxide solid-solutions have been prepared via decomposition and treatment of their respective organic salt precursors. The method gives compounds with increased homogeneity, purity and reactivity and allows isolation of submicronic solids and sometimes of new metastable phases, which could not have been obtained by high-temperature reactions. The morphological and other application properties of these submicronic solids and of new metastable phases can be widely modified and regulated by varying the composition and treatment given to the metal-organic precursors.
