Fe3+/Nb5+ Co-doped rutile-TiO2 nanocrystalline powders prepared by a combustion process: preparation and characterization and their giant dielectric response.


ABSTRACT: Fe3+/Nb5+ co-doped TiO2 (FeNb-TO) nanocrystalline powders were prepared by a combustion process. A pure rutile-TiO2 phase of powders and sintered ceramics with a dense microstructure was achieved. Both co-dopants were homogeneously dispersed in the ceramic microstructure. The presence of oxygen vacancies was confirmed by Raman and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy techniques. The low-frequency dielectric permittivity enhanced as co-doping concentration increased. The thermally activated giant-dielectric relaxation of FeNb-TO ceramics was observed. Removing the outer-surface layer had a slight effect on the dielectric properties of FeNb-TO ceramics. Density functional theory (DFT) calculation showed that, in the energy preferable configuration, the
