Synthesis and Structural Study of Cr-Doped BaTiO3 by X-ray Diffraction Technique and Williamson-Hall and Size Strain Plot Methods

X-ray diffraction technique has been employed in the current research work to determine the structure and composition of Cr-doped BaTiO3, because it is a very useful tool to study non-destructively the crystallographic structure, chemical composition and physical properties of BaTiO3. The XRD characterization has been conducted at IUC, UGC-DAE CSR. The synthesis of the nano-material has been done using the Sol-Gel Auto Combustion technique. BaTiO3 is a versatile compound, predominantly known for its storage capacity. Thus, serving in innumerable devices such as MLCCs, PTCR and microwave dielectric ceramics. Analysis of the obtained data from the characterization techniques has been done using Origin software. The powder XRD confirms the crystalline compound of Cr-Doped BaTiO3 by comparing 2 theta and intensity values with JCPDS values of the same compound.
