Abstract

The motion of oxygen vacancy as a defect complex and the effects of Mn addition on the dielectric relaxation in the Ba(Ti1−x−yMgxMny)O3−δ system have been studied in the frequency range of 25–106Hz at various temperatures. The dielectric constants (k) of 0.5mol% Mg-doped BaTiO3 rapidly decreased with increasing frequency at <1kHz and 200°C. There was a slight decrease in k observed for the BaTiO3 codoped with Mg and Mn and no change in k for singly Mn-doped BaTiO3. Loss peaks (tanδ) shifted to lower frequencies as the Mn content was increased, and the peak moved to higher frequencies with increasing temperature. Activation energies for the relaxation process of the Ba(Ti0.995−yMg0.005Mny)O3−δ system for y=0, 0.005, and 0.01 at 150–300°C were 0.47, 0.69, and 0.62eV, respectively, and at higher temperatures of 400–500°C were 1.08, 1.28, and 1.47eV for each corresponding composition.
