A simple system has been developed for the preparation of stable precursor solutions for dip coating (Ba1−xSrx)TiO3 thin films. From such stable solutions highly crystalline, uniform and crack‐free thin films are obtained by dip coating, followed by annealing at temperatures as low as 600°C. The pyrolysis behavior, crystallization mechanism, and thin film morphology have been studied using thermogravimetric and differential thermal analysis, X‐ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy. The dielectric tunability characteristics have been determined for thin films of composition (Ba1−xSrx)TiO3, x=0.30, to study their suitability for tunable device applications.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
