Abstract:This study investigates the effects of chromium (Cr3+) doping on BaTiO3 nanoparticles synthesized via the sol–gel route. X-ray diffraction confirms a Cr-induced cubic-to-tetragonal phase transition, with lattice parameters and crystallite size varying systematically with Cr3+ content. UV–visible spectroscopy reveals a monotonic decrease in bandgap energy from 3.168 eV (pure BaTiO3) to 2.604 eV (5% Cr3+-doped BaTiO3). Raman and FTIR spectroscopy elucidate structural distortions and vibrational mode alterations … Show more
