Abstract

Specimens were prepared of doped ceramic barium titanate in the form of bars which, between their metallized ends, contained only one high-resistance grain boundary running across the entire cross-section. The measurements covered the differential capacitance of these individual grain boundaries, under bias, and their d.c. current-voltage characteristics. The results can be described quite well by a model in which a layer of a second phase present between the barium titanate grains is assumed to possess, firstly, acceptor character and, secondly, a dependence of its permittivity on the temperature and the electric field strength.
