Investigation on structure of BaTi1−x Nb x O3 compound prepared by rotary-hydrothermal synthesis methods

BaTi1-xNbxO3 compounds (with x = 0.0, 0.01, 0.03, 0.06, and 0.09) were synthesized by rotary-hydrothermal (RH) method. The process was conducted at 180 °C for 5 hours in a Teflon vessel that was rotated at a speed of 160 rpm during the hydrothermal reaction. The effects of donor concentration on the structure and properties of BaTi1-xNbxO3 compounds were investigated. The experiments for the BaTiO3±Nb2O3 system produced by a solid state reaction at high temperature at different concentrations of niobium, with the use of RH processing have not been reported in previous works. For the phase evolution studies, X-ray diffraction patterns (XRD) were analyzed and Raman spectroscopy measurements were performed. The transmission electron microscope (TEM) and the field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) images were taken for the detailed analysis of the grain size, surface and morphology of the compound.

Electrical properties of Nb-doped titanium dioxide TiO2 at room temperature

Vol. 24, No. 1

53--60

Nb-doped TiO2 (0-15 at. % Nb) polycrystalline specimens were prepared by the sol-gel method. Below 10 at. % of Nb, materials were homogeneous and exhibited rutile structure, their lattice parameters changing with Nb concentration according to the Vegard's law. Above 10 at. % of Nb, the second phase TiNb2O7 was formed, detected by X-ray diffractometry. Materials were heated at 1273 K for 3 h in air (pO2 = 210 kPa) and in flow of Ar + 3 vol. % H2 gas mixture (pO2 = 10-15 Pa) and then cooled down. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy within the frequency range 0.01 Hz-2 MHz has been used to determine electrical properties of the materials. An equivalent circuit composed of a resistor Rgb, a capacitor C connected parallel and a resistor Rb connected in series, well represents the electrical properties of reduced samples. On the other hand, non-Debye elements should be taken into account in construction of the equivalent circuit of oxidized materials. The mechanism of the Nb incorporation has been proposed.
