X Abstract

Photoelectrochemical conversion characteristics of semiconducting, polycrystalline BaTiO3 electrodes have been investigated as a function of sintering atmosphere (air/H2) and the amount of dopant (lanthanum). The photocurrents for specimens sintered in air were greater than those of specimens sintered in hydrogen. Also, as the amount of dopant in BaTiO3 sintered in air increased, the photocurrent increased up to 0.2 at. % addition and then decreased. However, for BaTiO3 sintered in hydrogen, the photocurrents decreased consistently with the addition of the dopant. These results could be explained in terms of ceramic microstructure and electrical resistivity. Regardless of the amount of lanthanum, the photoresponse, as the wavelength of the induced light that varied, began to appear around 420–430 and 780–800 nm, which corresponds to the energy band of La-doped BaTiO3 and the oxygen vacancy level within the gap, respectively.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
