Abstract

The dielectric constant of an ordered assembly of BaTiO3 nanocubes is numerically calculated as a function of temperature assuming a distribution of tilt angles of attached nanocubes. As the phase transition temperature from the tetragonal crystal structure to the cubic crystal structure of a BaTiO3 nanocube decreases as the tilt angle increases, the temperature at the peak of the dielectric constant of an ordered assembly is considerably lower than the Curie temperature of a free-standing BaTiO3 crystal. The peak of the dielectric constant as a function of temperature for an ordered assembly becomes considerably broader than that for a single crystal owing to the contribution of nanocubes with various tilt angles.
