In the presented thesis, lead-free Ba(Ti0.88Sn0.12)O3-0.3(Ba0.7Ca0.3)TiO3 (BTS-BCT) thin films were deposited on (111)-Pt/TiO2/SiO2/(100)-Si substrates using chemical solution deposition method and then the effect of process parameters were investigated to obtain optimum parameters of these lead-free thin films. The phase was selected near to the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) to increase the number of polarization directions where rhombohedral and tetragonal phases exist together. In this study, the effect of sintering temperatures on microstructure, dielectric and ferroelectric properties were studied systematically. Among the various high-quality BTS-BCT thin films with uniform thickness, the optimum dielectric and ferroelectric responses were observed for films sintered at 850oC for 1 h sintering time. The thickness was kept constant for all measurements as 500 nm (thirteen layered films). BTS-BCT thin films sintered at 850oC for 1 h exhibited effective remnant polarization and coercive field values of 4.11 μC/cm2 and 57.8 kV/cm, together with a dielectric constant and low loss tangent of 113.4 and 5.46 %, respectively, at a frequency of 600 kHz due to perovskite phase formed by crystallization, minimum surface porosity and larger grains obtained at this temperature.

Preparation of BaxSr1-xTiO3 thin films by chemical solution deposition and their electrical characterization Adem, Umut; Özenbaş, Ahmet Macit; Department of Metallurgical and Materials Engineering (2003) In this study, barium strontium titanate (BST) thin films with different compositions (Ba0.9Sr0.1TiO3, Ba0.8Sr0.2TiO3, Ba0.7Sr0.3TiO3, Ba0.5Sr0.5TiO3) were produced by chemical solution deposition technique. BST solutions were prepared by dissolving barium acetate, strontium acetate and titanium isopropoxide in acetic acid and adding ethylene glycol as a chelating agent and stabilizer to this solution, at molar ratio of acetic acid/ethylene glycol, 3:1. The solution was then coated on Si and Pt//Ti/SiO2/Si ...
Characterization and preparation of thin films and homogeneously precipitated Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 powders Homojen olarak çökelti̇lmi̇ş Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 tozlarin ve i̇nce fi̇lmleri̇n hazirlanmasi ve karakteri̇zasyonu Özenbaş, Ahmet Macit (1999-12-01) In this study, ferroelectric Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 powders and thin films were prepared from metal chlorides using sol-gel processing method. For powders; homogeneous precipitation from aqueous solution and for films; dip coating just before precipitation was applied in the presence of urea, [(NH2)2CO]. Characterization of the films and powders were carried out primarily by XRD and SEM/EDX. Both the films and powders were stoichiometric and completely crystallized into perovskite phase after annealing for 5 hours at ...
Characterization of polyaniline via pyrolysis mass spectrometry Hacaloğlu, Jale; Kücükyavuz, Zühal (2008-04-05) In this work, direct insertion probe pyrolysis mass spectrometry technique was applied to investigate the thermal and the structural characteristics of electrochemically prepared HCl and HNO3-doped polyaniline (PANI) films. It has been determined that the thermal degradation of both samples showed three main thermal degradation stages. The first stage around 50-60 degrees C was associated with evolution of solvent and low-molecular-weight species adsorbed on the polymer, the second stage just above 150 degr...
Investigation of structural and optical characteristics of thermally evaporated Ga2Se3 thin films Isik, M.; Hasanlı, Nızamı (2020-09-01) Ga2Se3 thin films were prepared by thermal evaporation technique and structural, optical characteristics of the deposited thin films were investigated in the present study. X-ray diffraction pattern of the thin film exhibited one intensive and sharp peak associated with (111) plane of cubic crystalline structure of the compound. Energy dispersive spectroscopic analyses pointed out the atomic compositional ratio of the constituent elements as consistent with chemical formula of Ga2Se3. The optical characteri...
