Stoichiometry of BaTiO3 nanoparticles
Source abstract
Abstract
Barium titanate nanoparticles with various nominal Ba/Ti ratios were prepared through direct synthesis from solution (DSS) and further annealed at different temperatures. Their deviation from stoichiometry was studied through XRD analysis, and a large deviation from stoichiometry has been observed. The grain size we studied ranges from 50 nm to 1 μm. For the as-prepared particles, the grain size is about 50 nm, and the maximum excess of Ti is over 15%. For the samples annealed at 800 °C, the grain size is increased to 100 nm, and the maximum excesses of Ba and Ti are 8 and 9%, respectively. The defects formed during synthesis and surface effect of nanoparticles are both estimated for their contributions to the deviation from stoichiometry, and the defects have been found to be mainly responsible for the large deviation observed.
