A nonlinear thermodynamic model is used to investigate the influence of thermal stresses on the room temperature RT pyroelectric properties of 001 -textured polycrystalline barium strontium titanate BaxSr1−xTiO3, BST films with four different compositions on three integrated circuit-friendly substrates: Si, 0001 and 1̄1̄20 sapphire. It is found that the in-plane tensile thermal strain in BST incr...

A novel electric and magnetic field tunable microwave resonator with a yttrium iron garnet and barium strontium titanate layered structure is investigated. The measured characteristics at 3.6 GHz, corresponding to the proximity of magnetic and dielectric resonance modes, show a broadband electrical tunability. A tuning range of 1.5% of the central resonance frequency is obtained for nominal ele...

Quality factor variation with top electrode area in thin-film barium–strontium–titanate parallel-plate capacitors is discussed. At low frequencies, the geometry dependence is consistent with the presence of a parallel parasitic loss pathway enabled by conduction over the device mesa surface. At high frequencies, the variation in the quality factor with top electrode area is due to a geometry-in...

In this work, pellet samples of barium calcium zirconate titanate (Ba1-xCaxZr0.1Ti0.9O3, x=0.065) were prepared using solid state reaction route with double sintering. The structural and piezoelectric properties measured. Further, SEM EDAX analysis observed. With different sintering temperature, the density grain size changed further, their effect in has been For samples, converse constant (d33...

We have measured the low-frequency ("unclamped") electrooptic and piezoelectric coefficients in undoped BaTiO, and SrSa, -Nh2O6 (x = 0.61) crystals using interferometric techniques. The Contribution of the piezoelectric effect to the Pockels measurements is discussed. For an applied ac electric field in the range 0.1-200 V/cm, the electrooptic and piezoelectric effects are linear in the magnitu...

The functional properties of two types of barium strontium titanate ~BST! thin film capacitor structures were studied: one set of structures was made using pulsed-laser deposition ~PLD! and the other using chemical solution deposition. While initial observations on PLD films looking at the behavior of Tm ~the temperature at which the maximum dielectric constant was observed! and Tc* ~from Curie...

We report the solution-based synthesis of single-crystalline nanorods composed of barium titanate (BaTiO3) and strontium titanate (SrTiO3), which yields well-isolated nanorods with diameters ranging from 5 to 60 nm and lengths reaching up to >10 mum. Electron microscopy and diffraction measurements show that these nanorods are composed of single-crystalline cubic perovskite BaTiO3 and SrTiO3 wi...

Presently, the research on thin films is essentially useful in world of science and technology. Therefore, this study aims to explore Barium Strontium Titanate (BST) as basis making dynamic random access memory (DRAM). This DRAM technology produces small cells that have faster operations, lower energy, longer data storage period, are found havemade up nanoparticles (Ba0.4Sr0.6TiO3; BST). BST ap...
