Abstract
A series of samples was sintered from nanometric BaTiO3 powder by spark plasma sintering (SPS). Porosity on ultra-fine size scales, hardly accessible for quantification by conventional techniques, was measured by small angle neutron scattering (SANS). Band gap was estimated from diffuse reflectance measurements. Sintered tablets were polished, sputtered by aluminum to create electrode system and tested in DC and AC electric fields. The results were correlated with the SPS processing parameters and are discussed in connection with other BaTiO3 samples produced by SPS with or without additional heat treatment. Majority of our SPS fired samples had, even without subsequent thermal treatment, advantageous combination of high permittivity, DC resistivity and low loss factor, seldom reported for SPS technology.
