It has been generally accepted that doping of dielectric materials could significantly contribute to compositional and microstructural evolution, which consequently lead to alteration in dielectric properties. In this study, the effects of adding magnesium (Mg) at 5,10 and 20at% on the chemical composition, microstructure and dielectric constant of calcium titanate (CaTiO3) synthesized by solid state reaction was assessed. Chemical composition analysis using an X-ray diffraction technique CaTiO3 doped with 5 at% Mg has been found to contain a single phase whereas samples doped with 10 and 20 at% Mg both exhibited apparent secondary phase (MgO). Microstructural examination however, revealed that no significant variation in particle size, grain size and density were evident among the samples of different Mg contents. Average dielectric constants obtained from the entire samples ranged from 245.9 to 387.6 (at 1 MHz) and the sample with the highest dielectric constant was that doped with 5 at% Mg. Enhancement of dielectric constant in the samples with the lowest level of Mg doping has been attributed largely to the homogeneity of its chemical composition.

Ferromagnetic Ordering

ABSTRACTPolycrystalline β-Ga2O3 doped with Fe3+, (Ga1−x Fex)2O3 (x=0.02, 0.05, 0.08 and 0.1), has been prepared by a solid-state reaction. Ferromagnetic ordering is observed at room temperature for samples prepared by β-Ga2O3 and Fe(NO3)3·9H2O and sintered at low temperatures below 900 °C, while the sintering at temperatures above 900 °C leads to the paramagnetic behavior. X-ray diffraction analysis for the samples sintered at 500 °C reveals that the single phase of β-Ga2O3 can be obtained up to x=0.08 without traces of secondary phase or other impurity. Magnetization as a function of temperature shows superparamagnetic or cluster spin-glass behavior, indicating that long-range ferromagnetic ordering does not exist in the present systems. It is suggested that the inhomogeneous distribution of Fe3+ is responsible for the ferromagnetic behavior.

Bi4-xLaxTi3O12 (where x = 0, 0.25, 0.50, 0.75 and 1) powders and ceramics were prepared using conventional solid state reaction and sintering procedures. The calcination was carried out at 750 °C for 4 h and sintering was done at 1150 °C for 4 h. The density of all ceramics was found to be comparable regardless of La concentration. X-ray diffraction analysis showed that preferred orientation of ceramic grains was reduced with addition of La ions. This reduced preferred orientation was accompanied by a decrease in grain size. The temperature dependence of dielectric constant showed a decrease in Tc with increasing La concentration.

Ba1−xSrxTiO3 (x = 0.9) ferroelectric ceramics were prepared successfully using a new wet technique and their structure and dielectric properties compared with those synthesized by the solid-state reaction method. The voltage dependence of the dielectric constant in the paraelectric phase was examined. It was found that the dielectric constants of these materials, prepared by both methods, exhibit large changes with applied voltage in the paraelectric phase. Tunability (the percentage change of the dielectric constant from its zero-bias value in the presence of a de-biasing electric field) was observed to exceed 30% at only 1.7 kV/cm at 77 K in the samples prepared by the solid-state reaction method. The tunability was found to decrease dramatically as the operating temperatures increased above the Curie point. These observations are interpreted in light of an existing phenomenological theory. The dependence of the dielectric constant in the paraelectric state upon a de-biasing electric field is also demonstrated as a potential method for the characterization of dielectric nonuniformities in ferroelectric ceramics.

Owing to its high dielectric constant, barium titanate is a material commonly employed in fabrication of high energy density capacitors. Dielectric properties required for practical applications can be attained in barium titanate with desired chemical composition and microstructure. This study, therefore, aims at examining effects of additive contents on formation of secondary phases, microstructure and dielectric properties of BaTiO3 and BaTiO3 with 20-40 at% Ca. Chemical composition analysis revealed that single-phase BaTiO3 powder could be attained by the solution combustion technique. However, the powder with high Ca content exhibited large quantities of secondary phases. Dielectric property measurements of the uniaxially pressed powders indicated that dielectric constants could be enhanced with low Ca content. On the contrary, dielectric constant significantly degraded with high Ca content. This was attributed to formation of large quantities of secondary phases, coarse grain size and low density. Values of dielectric loss of all materials were lower than 1%.

Synthesis Of Barium Titanate

Barium titanate has been a common material for fabrication of capacitors. Synthesis of barium titanate can be achieved by various techniques. These techniques are believed to affect dielectric properties. This research was aimed at synthesizing BaTiO3 and Ba0.9 A0.1TiO3 (A = Al and Mg) powders by solid state reaction technique. Dielectric constant of barium titanate and the ones doped with 10 at% Al and Mg prepared by the solid state reaction technique had dielectric constant ranging from 109 to 280 at 1 MHz. Results from density examination revealed that barium titanate samples prepared by the solid state reaction had low density. This may leads to the decrease of dielectric constant. Results from this study suggested that the decline of the dielectric properties was attributed to chemical composition and density of samples.

Optical Applications

Transmission-electron microscopy (TEM), scanning-electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDS) were used to investigate the solid-state reaction between a thin yttria film and a (0001) α-alumina substrate. Systems containing Y2O3 (yttria) and Al2O3 (alumina) are seen in many technologically relevant applications. For example, yttria is being explored as a coating material for alumina fibers for metal-ceramic composites. The coating serves as a diffusion barrier and protects the alumina fiber from reacting with the metal matrix. With sufficient time and temperature, yttria in contact with alumina will react to form one or a combination of phases shown by the phase diagram in Figure l. Of the reaction phases, yttrium aluminum garnet (YAG) is used as a material for lasers and other optical applications. In a different application, YAG is formed as a secondary phase in the sintering of AIN. Yttria is added to AIN as a sintering aid and acts as an oxygen getter by reacting with the alumina in AIN to form YAG.

In the present work, strontium iron niobate SrFe0.5Nb0.5O3 ceramics doped with aluminum were synthesized by a solid-state reaction technique. Phase formation investigation by X-ray diffraction technique (XRD) revealed that all ceramics exhibited pure perovskite phase with orthorhombic symmetry. Grain size observed by electron microscopy (SEM) was found to increase with increasing sintering temperature. The electrical properties and related parameters of the ceramics were also measured. The ceramics exhibit very good dielectric behavior and have a significant potential for dielectric applications.

As a new candidate material for the ceramic layer in thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) system, La3NbO7 was synthesized with La2O3 powder and Nb2O5 powder by solid state reaction. The stating powders with a mole ratio of La to Nb of 3:1 were mixed and then the mixture was calcined under the different temperatures(800°C, 1000°C, 1200°C) and dwell times(2h, 6h, 10h). The phase structure of the powder was observed by X–ray diffraction(XRD), and the microstructure of the sample was observed by scanning electron microscope(SEM). The effect of calcination temperature and dwell Time on the phase formation were examined. The results indicate that the La3NbO7 powder with single phase can be synthesized successfully at 1200°C for 10h in air, and the La3NbOsub>7 powders synthesized have an ultra-fine particle size of 0.5˜1µm with a granular particle shape. With the temperature increasing, LaNbO4/sub> was synthesized firstly and then La3NbO7 was synthesized with a mole ratio of La2O3 to LaNbO4 of 1:1.

SrBi1.8Ce0.2Nb2O9 (SBCN) and SrBi1.8Ce0.2Ta2O9 (SBCT) powders were prepared via solid-state reaction method. X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that the SBCN and SBCT powders have the single phase orthorhom-bic Aurivillius structure at room temperature. The contribution of Raman scattering and FTIR spectroscopy of these samples were relatively smooth and resemble each other. The calcined powders were uniaxially pressed and sintered at 1250?C for 8 h to obtaine dense ceramics. Dielectric constant, loss tangent and AC conductivity of the sintered Ce-doped SrBi2Nb2O9 and SrBi2Ta2O9 ceramics were measured by LCR meter. The Ce-doped SBN (SBCN) ceramics have a higher Curie temperature (TC) and dielectric constant at TC (380?C and ?? ~3510) compared to the Ce-doped SBT (SBCT) ceramics (330?C and ?? ~115) when measured at 100Hz. However, the Ce-doped SBT (SBCT) ceramics have lower conductivity and dielectric loss.
