Dipole-Dipole Interaction Model for Oriented Attachment of BaTiO3 Nanocrystals Revisited

Article Preview

Abstract:

Numerical simulations of the oriented aggregation of BaTiO3 nanocrystals using the dipole-dipole interaction model have been performed under conditions corresponding to those used in ultrasound-assisted synthesis. The results suggest that BaTiO3 nanocrystals with a diameter of 5 nm have a spontaneous polarization that is not more than one order of magnitude lower than the value of ~0.15 C/m2 for a macroscopic BaTiO3 single crystal.
