A novel diol based metalorganic route has been developed and employed to deposit BaTiO3 films on Si and Pt coated Si substrates. Differential thermal analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and x-ray diffraction collectively indicated that BaTiO3 was formed through the reaction of Ba and Ti oxides at approximately 500 °C. The films were single phase, had no crystallographic texture, and contained no detectable impurities.
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.
