Direct synthesis of pure brannerite UTi2O6
2019
International audience; A new method based on the precipitation of uranium(IV) and titanium(IV) hydroxide precursors was developed to prepare pure brannerite UTi2O6 samples. In fact, U(IV) dissolved in HCl (6 mol L−1) was mixed to Ti (IV) alkoxyde before a basification step with an excess of NH4OH to obtain a highly reactive nanometric (U,Ti)(OH)4 powder. The obtained powder was then dried under vacuum, pressed into pellets and finally fired at 1300 °C. This method led to the formation of pure brannerite in contrast to previous reported protocols, which showed the formation of impurities such us UO2 and TiO2. The refined unit cell parameters of UTi2O6 led to a = 9.8113(2) Å, b = 3.7681(1) Å…
Dielectric properties of barium strontium titanate / non ferroelectric oxide ceramic composites

International audience; Barium strontium titanate ceramics present high dielectric permittivity and tunability. In order to reduce their permettivity and loss tangent while keeping tunability, various composites of barium strontium titanate oxide...
Non-linear dielectric behaviour and glass phase in Sr1-xCaxTiO3(x= 0.002 andx= 0.003)
1999
This work reports a study of the temperature and electric field dependence of the dielectric constant of strontium calcium titanate. The first part of the paper is focused on the analysis of a mean-field model for the polar clusters generated by the random impurities of calcium. It is shown that the dipolar moments within each cluster can be represented by an equivalent quantum two-level system. General expressions for the temperature and field dependence of the Edward-Anderson order parameter and of the electrical polarization are given. Analytical solutions are also obtained in the limit of high temperatures and in the limit of high tunnelling frequencies. The second part of the work repo…
Mean field behaviour of Sr1−xCaxTiO3
1996
A systematic analysis of the dielectric constant as a function of temperature in SrTiO 3 : Ca crystals with Ca content of 0.0020, 0.0032, 0.0055. 0.0058, and 0.0110 shows that the Barrett parameters are clearly modified by the Ca content. We have found for each Ca concentration the temperature below which the contribution of the Ca induced clusters becomes sizeable. The values obtained for the fitted parameters in the Barrett formula allow us to trace a boundary between the low-temperature quantum paraelectric and ferroelectric regimes.
Germanium modified BaTiO3as a promising electroceramics
2016
ABSTRACTThe polycrystalline sample of BaTi0.95Ge0.05O3 was prepared by solid-phase reaction using a conventional method. The morphology of investigated sample was characterised by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The results allowed to determining the stoichiometry of the material and evaluate their microstructure. High quality samples were investigated, the grains are well shaped without of a glassy phase. The dielectric properties of the BaTi0.95Ge0.05O3 ceramics were determined. The results were compared with these ones obtained for pure BaTiO3. The obtained data indicated that the substitution of Ge+4 ions had an influence on the values of the real (ϵ′) and imaginary (ϵ″) parts of el…
Semi-empirical indo and shell-model calculations for perovskites
1999
Abstract Structural, phonon and some elastic and dielectric properties have been calculated for various paraelectric or ferroelectric phases of the perovskites KNbO3 and SrTiO3, using either the semi-empirical INDO (Intermediate Neglect of Differential Overlap) method or a temperature-dependent shell model. The INDO method was used to calculate the energy changes resulting from [100], [110] or [111] displacements of Nb atoms in the cubic perovskite cell of KNbO3, at 0K. The conventional shell model gives a good account of the elastic, dielectric and phonon properties of the cubic phase of strontium titanate at room temperature, but difficulties remain in modelling the permittivity and elast…
Structural and Dielectric Properties of (Na0.5Bi0.5)0.70Ba0.30TiO3 Ceramics.
2003
Abstract A (Na0.5Bi0.5)0.70Ba0.30TiO3 ceramic has been studied by X-ray diffraction and by measurements of dielectric and ferroelectric properties between room temperature and 450 °C. A sharp increase in the electric permittivity and dielectric loss near 200 °C has been observed. This sharp increase in dielectric responses indicates a transformation between normal and relaxor ferroelectric states. It is found that polar regions can exist at higher temperatures. The X-ray diffraction study shows that the transformation corresponds to the first order phase transition from tetragonal to cubic. The use of the (Na0.5Bi0.5)0.70Ba0.30TiO3 ceramic for device application has also been indicated.
Bias Field Effect on Dielectric Response in the Region of Phase Transitions in (Pb,La)(Zr,Sn,Ti)O3Ceramics
2007
The dielectric response of (Pb 0.97 La 0.02 ) (Zr 0.53 Ti 0.12 Sn 0.35 )O 3 (PLZTS-2/53/12/35) ceramics was measured as a function of DC bias field E =. As the bias field intensity increases the values of ϵ′ max and ϵ” max are found to shift towards a lower temperature. A possible coexistence of the ferroelectric and antiferroelectric phases over a wide range of temperatures in the PLZTS-2/53/12/35 samples is assumed to explain the observed features of ϵ′ (T), ϵ” (T), and ϵ′ (E=) curves.
Temperature and electric field dependence of the permittivity of Ba0.9Sr0.1TiO3 films epitaxially grown on cuprate electrodes
1999
Abstract Cuprate, high-temperature superconductors and perovskite ferroelectrics have similar crystal structures and chemical constituents and, therefore, it can be advantageous to deposit epitaxial trilayer capacitors with high-Tc electrodes and operate these at room temperature, well above the transition temperature Tc, in order to achieve a high dielectric constant, tunability, and relatively low microwave loss. Epitaxial heterostructures (200 nm)YBa2Cu3O7−δ/(600 nm)Ba0.9Sr0.1TiO3/(200 nm)YBa2Cu3O7−δ and (200 nm)NdBa2Cu3O7−δ/(600 nm)Ba0.9Sr0.1TiO3/(200 nm)NdBa2Cu3O7−δ were laser deposited on (100)LaAlO3 substrates. The relative dielectric permittivity e/e0 of Ba0.9Sr0.1TiO3 was in the ra…

Lead titanate solid solutions exhibits extreme values of some physical parameters. We have investigated a ferroelectric relaxor ceramics of PSN-PT composition near the morphotropic phase boundary. Results are discussed with account for the relaxor properties related to defects and disordering of the PSN-PT system.
