Phase formation by interfacial reactions in the BaO - TiO₂ system — •Andreas Graff, Stephan Senz, and Dietrich Hesse — Max-Planck-Institut für Mikrostrukturphysik, Halle, Germany

Model experiments concerning phase formation during BaTiO₃ genesis by interfacial reactions in ceramics were performed to identify the reaction mechanism. Reaction products between BaO vapour and rutile (TiO₂) single crystals with different orientations were investigated by XRD and analytical TEM. BaTiO₃ was found at the surface of the reaction layer. It had a well-defined orientation relation to the rutile substrate. In addition to BaTiO₃, Ti-rich phases and pores were formed. This observation is discussed by an outdiffusion of titanium and oxygen from the BaTiO₃-TiO₂ interface. For a more detailed study of this behavior, reaction couples of BaTiO₃ thin films on rutile single crystal substrates were prepared. Solid state reactions were initiated by heat treatment in air. These experiments are compared with the BaO-TiO₂ reaction.
