A new effect of ultrasonication on the formation of BaTiO3 nanoparticles

A new effect of ultrasonic irradiation on the formation of BaTiO3 particles was identified. Ultrasonication caused the aggregation of the original 5–10 nm BaTiO3 particles in the same crystal axis and accelerated the formation of BaTiO3 particles significantly. Furthermore, narrow size distribution was obtained for the aggregated particles under ultrasonic irradiation.
