Abstract

Glass composition 39PbO–1BaO–25TiO2–9.8Al2O3–24.2SiO2–1B2O3 (mol%) crystallized on heat treatment at ≥600 °C to form glass-ceramics whose majority phase was PbTiO3 (PT). At 600 °C, nano-size PT crystals (∼20–50 nm) with a c/a ratio of 1.000(1) were observed, but as heat-treatment temperature increased to 1000 °C, the crystal size and c/a ratio increased to ∼1.2 μm and 1.056(4), respectively. Permittivity measurements as a function of temperature revealed a broad peak at ∼400 °C associated with the nanocrystalline PT crystals, but it sharpened and increased in temperature as heat treatment temperature increased to 1000 °C. The causes of peak broadening and shift of Tc are believed to be due to either clamping of PT crystals by glass matrix, finite size effects due to their intrinsically small size, or the incorporation of dopant impurities such as Al, Si, or Ba ions in the PT phase.
