Effect of oxidizing and reducing atmospheres on Ba(Ti0.90Zr0.10)O3:2V ceramics as characterized by piezoresponse force microscopy

The effect of annealing atmospheres (At amb, N2 and O2) on the electrical properties of Ba(Ti0.90Zr0.10)O3:2V (BZT10:2V) ceramics obtained by the mixed oxide method was investigated. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis indicates that oxygen vacancies present near Zr and Ti ions reduce fe...
