Abstract
- Abstract: Barium titanate is one of the most studied ferroelectric materials which has been used in various forms, e.g. bulk, thin and thick films, powder, in a number of applications. In order to achieve a material with desired properties, it is modified with suitable substituents. Most common substituents have been strontium, calcium and zirconium. Here, we report studies on lead and zirconium substituted barium titanate. The material series with compositional formula Ba0.80Pb0.20Ti1−x Zr x O3, with x varying from 0 to 0.1, was chosen for investigations. The material was synthesized by solid-state reaction method. Reacted powders compacted in the form of circular discs were sintered at 1300°C. All the samples were subjected to X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and found to have single phase perovskite structure. Dielectric behavior was studied as a function of frequency and temperature. Curie temperature (T c) was found to decrease with increasing x. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
