Popis: | Calcium copper titanate (CCTO) ceramics were successfully synthesized using a rapid laser reactive sintering method without conventional long heat treatment times. The microstructure, dielectric properties, and impedance spectroscopy results for CCTO sintered at laser power rates of 25&ndash 85 W were investigated in detail. The X-ray diffractometry results showed that prepared CCTO is polycrystalline in a cubic structure with high purity. Scanning electron microscopy showed that CCTO sintered at 85 W has a dense microstructure with an average grain size of 30 nm. The dielectric permittivity of CCTO ceramics increased with increasing laser power over the entire frequency range and achieved a value of almost 105 in the low-frequency region. The dielectric permittivity maintained almost constant values from 102 Hz to 107 Hz, with lower dielectric loss (~0.1) from 103 Hz to 106 Hz, demonstrating good frequency stability. The impedance spectroscopy study showed that grain and grain boundary resistance decreased with rising laser power based on two parallel Resistor-Capacitance (RC) equivalent circuits in series. The activation energies for the grain boundaries were calculated from the impedance using the slope of ln versus 1/T and were found to be in the range of 0.53&ndash 0.63 eV. CCTO synthesized by rapid laser reactive sintering is competitive for practical applications. |
