Effects of GeO 2 addition on physical and electrical properties of BaFe 0.5Nb 0.5O 3 ceramic

This paper presents the effect of GeO 2 glass former on the physical and electrical properties of BaFe 0.5Nb 0.5O 3 (BFN) perovskite ceramics. The BFN powder was prepared by a conventional mixed-oxide method and the GeO 2 contents, ranging from 1 to 5 wt.%, were subsequently added to the calcined BF...

However, the densities of these GeO 2 doped BFN ceramics were slightly lower than those of pure BFN due to the occurrence of pores.
