Abstract
We employed molecular-dynamics simulations with interatomic pair-potentials to examine oxygen-vacancy diffusion in the cubic phase of perovskite BaTiO3 as a function of temperature. By comparing the absolute rate of vacancy diffusion as well as its temperature dependence with experimental data, we are able to narrow down the activation enthalpy of migration to 0.70-0.76 eV.
