Structural Properties of $Ba(Zn_{0.8}Co_{0.2})_{1/3}Ta_{2/3}O_3$ Ceramics

$Ba(Zn_{0.8}Co_{0.2})_{1/3}Ta_{2/3}O_3$ 세라믹스의 구조적 특성

$Ba(Zn_{0.8}Co_{0.2})_{1/3}Ta_{2/3}O_3$ [BZCT(80/20)] ceramics were prepared by the conventional mixed oxide method. The ceramics were sintered at the temperature of $1450{\sim}1550^{\circ}C$ for 5hr. in air. The structural properties of BZCT(80/20) ceramics were investigated as a function of sintering temperature. The BZCT(80/20) ceramics sintered at $1550^{\circ}C$ showed a polycrystalline complex perovskite structure without second phases and any unreacted materials. Increasing the sintering temperature, the bulk density and ordering were increased. The bulk density of the BZCT(80/20) ceramics sintered at $1550^{\circ}C$ was 7.50[$g/cm^2$]. Increasing the sintering temperature, the average grain size were increased and pore were decreased.
