Nanocrystalline BaTiO3 from the Gas-Condensation Process
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 10 February 2011
Abstract
Nanocrystalline BaTiO3 can be prepared by the gas condensation method at a temperature as low as 700°C, with an average particle size as small as 18nm. The stoichiometry of nanocrystalline BaTiO3 particles can be controlled precisely and reproducibly. Nanocrystalline BaTiO3 powders, fabricated by a novel e-beam evaporation method, show good sintering behavior with a high density at a temperature as low as 1200°C. These samples exhibit a relatively larger dielectric constant than that of coarse-grained BaTiO3. In addition, a thermal analysis has been also carried out to determinethe lowest temperature for forming nanostructured BaTiO3 from Ba/Ti oxidized clusters at ambient pressure.
