Light Sensitive Lattice Defects In BaTiO 3 Containing Fe
Electron spin resonance spectra, which can consistently be explained by the models Fe4+ - Vo and Fe5+ - vBa, have been observed with BaTiO3 containing Fe. Also Fe3+ and - Fe3+ - Vo have been identified. All these centers as well as several unidentified ones are observed to change their charge states under illumination. They thus are possibly in involved in photorefractive processes in BaTiO3 containing Fe.
Influence of oxygen vacancies on the photorefractive effect in barium titanate single crystals
Abstract In this work the influence of the vacancies concentration in pure BaTiO3 single crystals is studied. It is shown that the oxidation and the reduction do not change the electrooptic coefficients. The reduction modifies the nature of the majority carriers. An evaluation of the trap density N is done.
Algebraic value of the electrooptic coefficients and nature of charge carriers in batio3single crystals
Abstract Some monodomain pure and Fe doped barium titanate monocrystals are studied. The algebraic values of the electrooptic coefficients r 13 and r 33 are evaluated using an interferometric method. Then, from energy transfer results it is possible to conclude that majority carriers are positive charges in all the samples.
