Abstract
In this article, we report the effect of nickel oxide (NiO) addition on the microstructure and the dielectric properties of nano-barium titanate (BaTiO3). Nickel ion doped barium titanate nanoparticles have been synthesized through a chemical route using polyvinyl alcohol (PVA). The concentration of Ni2+ varies from 0 to 1.6 mol% in the specimens. The particle diameters in the specimen lie in the range of 24 nm to 35 nm. It is seen that the dielectric permittivity in doped specimens is enhanced compared to that of undoped BT ceramics. The dielectric permittivity shows maxima in the specimen containing 0.6 mol% of dopant concentration. The results are explained in terms of the change in lattice parameter c and a of the specimens.
