Hall mobility, electrical resistivity, and dielectric properties of reduced La0.01Ba0.99TiO3
(KOREAN PHYSICAL SOC., 2013) Ali, Ahmed. I.; Moez, A. Abdel; Kim, Yong Soo
The La0.01Ba0.99TiO3 sample was reduced at 1380 A degrees C under about a 10(-14)-atmosphere oxygen partial pressure. After the sample had been reduced under these conditions, the resistivity and the Hall mobility of the reduced La0.01Ba0.99TiO3 were investigated experimentally within a temperature range of 300 to 600 K. The electrical resistivity decreased linearly with increasing measurement temperature, indicating that the conduction mechanism in this system was thermally activated. Evidence of an excess of charge carriers was observed at high temperatures. The dielectric property data showed that the known phase-transition temperature shifted to a higher temperature (425 K). Thus the reduction of the sample has an influence on both the dielectric constant and the transition temperature. In-situ high-temperature electrical-conductivity and Hall measurements are useful tools for establishing the donor-doping effect in perovskite La0.01Ba0.99TiO3 and for screening it for more industrial applications.
Optical and dielectric results of Y0.225Sr0.775CoO3 +/-delta thin films studied by spectroscopic ellipsometry technique
(ELSEVIER, 2013) Ali, A. I.; Son, J. Y.; Ammar, A. H.; Moez, A. Abdel; Kim, Y. S.
Y0.225Sr0.775CoO3 +/-delta thin films have been deposited on SrTiO3 (111), SrTiO3 (100), LaAlO3 (100) and MgO (111) single crystals substrates at 500 degrees C by pulsed laser deposition (PLD) method. The optical measurements of these films were studied by ellipsometric method in the spectral range from 310 to 1240 nm. The dependence of the optical constants, the refractive index (n), the extinction coefficient (k), the dielectric loss (epsilon') and the dielectric tangent loss (epsilon '') of these films on the different single crystal substrates was also studied. The normal dispersion of refractive index of the films could be described using the Wemple-DiDomenico single oscillator method. The optical dispersion parameters E-o and E-d were determined according to the above oscillator method. Y0.225Sr0.775CoO3 +/-delta thin films on different substrates have two direct and indirect allowed transitions corresponding to the energy gap E-g(d) and E-g(ind). The variation in either E-g(d) or E-g(ind) with different substrates revealed that, orientation of the substrates affected the energy gap value. Other optical parameters such as the surface energy loss function and the volume energy loss function. were calculated optically. The effective mass of the film has also been calculated from both electrical and optical measurements. (C) 2013 The Authors Published. by Elsevier B.V. Open access under CC BY-NC-ND license.
