Dielectric Properties and Microstructure of BaTiO3 Ceramics
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 February 2011
Abstract
Dielectric properties and microstructure were investigated in BaTiO3 ceramics with various additives, Ho2O3, MgO, Ho2O3/MgO, and La2O3. The dielectric constants were increased up to ∼4000 and ∼3000 at 25°C in the 1 mol% Ho-doped and 0.5 mol% Mg-doped BaTiO3 materials, respectively. The BaTiO3 material codoped with 3 mol% Ho + 1.5 mol% Mg led to increase dielectric constant up to ∼6000 at 25°C and the dielectric constant peak around Curie temperature was suppressed at temperature range of from 25°C to 125°C. The size of BaTiO3 grains depended on the content and kind of an additive. Core-shell grains and secondary phase were also dependent on an additive. Core-shell grains were formed completely in Ho-doped BaTiO3 except for 0.5 mol%, but the structure was little observed in Mg- and La-doped BaTiO3 material. Codoped BaTiO3 also formed the core-shell grains.
