Temperature-Dependent Structure of a High-k (Ba,La)(Ti,Ce)O3 Ceramic

Abstract:

The lattice structure of a high-k BL3TC5 [(Ba1-xLax)(Ti1-x/4-yCey)O3 (x = 0.03, y = 0.05)] ceramic with cubic structure at room temperature was investigated using temperature-dependent X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy. The XRD results indicated that with increasing temperature, the cubic lattice of BL3TC5 showed a lower coefficient of linear expansion (α = 7.7 × 10-6/°C) relative to the cubic BaTiO3 (9.3 × 10-6/°C), but no abnormal change in cell volume occurred around the dielectric peak temperature Tm (= 38 °C). The peak position of the ~835 cm-1 Raman band induced by the substitution of La3+ ions for Ba sites in BL3TC5 was nearly independent of temperature on each side of Tm, whereas a slight fall (3 cm-1) in the peak position around Tm was detectable. The link between the dielectric peak with DPT and the lattice change was discussed.
