Abstract

Amorphous barium titanate nanothin films were prepared by sol–gel dip-coating method. According to transmission spectrum, the refractive index and optical band gap of nanothin films have been determined. High transmission spectrum without any fluctuation in visible wavelength region was recorded. Experimental results indicated that the surface morphology of prepared nanothin films were improved and as a result of that, a better optical properties, less optical losses and higher band gap width were obtained in contrast with other reported data. It was found that optical propagation loss of BaTiO 3 nanothin film was much lower than normal polycrystalline BaTiO 3 thin film. It seems to us that, amorphous barium titanate nanothin films would be suitable for several applications.
