In this manuscript, We have reported the synthesis and characterization of Mg-doped and un-doped BCTO ceramic (Bi2/3Cu3-xMgxTi4O12, x=0, 0.05, 0.1 and 0.2) sintered at 1173 K for 8 h, which have been prepared by the semi-wet route. The Single-phase formation of ceramic was approved by the XRD pattern. The Microstructural properties were studied by TEM. The samples were characterized by dielectric and impedance spectroscopic properties. The dielectric constant (εr) was calculated to be 3024 for BCTO ceramics at 423 K and 100Hz. The tangent loss (tan δ) value was calculated to be 0.45 for BCTO ceramic at 423 K and 10 kHz. The internal Barrier Layer Capacitance (IBLC) mechanism was responsible for the high value of the dielectric constant.. It was observed from Impedance studies that there was the existence of the Maxwell-Wagner form of relaxation in the ceramics. In the temperature range 300-500 K, the Bi2/3Cu3-xMgxTi4O12 (where x=0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.2) ceramic follows Arrhenius behavior with an almost single slope. Pervoskite material plays a significant role in the biosensing field like DNA hybridization. This research provided a newtype and promising perovskite for the development of efficient biosensors.
Zinc doped titanium oxide (Ti1-xZnxO2, x=0.05) abbreviated as Ti0.95 Zn0.05O2 (TZO) ceramic was synthesized by semiwet route using aqueous solution of zinc acetate dihydrate and solid titanium dioxide as starting materials. The single phase formation of the TZO ceramic sintered at 900 °C for 8 h was confirmed by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. The lattice parameters obtained by Retvield refinement were found to be a=b= 4.609 Å, c= 2.967Å and α=β= γ= 90 ° with space group P 42/m n m confirmed the rhombic structure of TZO ceramic. The average particle size of the TZO ceramic observed by TEM analysis was found to be 84 nm. The surface morphologies and roughness parameters of TZO ceramic were observed by atomic force microscopy (AFM) analysis. The value of dielectric constant (ε′) and tangent loss (tan δ) of the TZO ceramic were found to be 230 and 0.2, respectively at 100 Hz and 498 K.
