Ferroelectric Hysteresis Properties of BaTiO3 and Curie Temperature Determination
Description
Created an experimental setup in order to pass a sweeping electric current through a sample of BaTiO3 at different temperatures in order to determine the Curie temperature of BaTiO3
Performed lab experiment and swept high voltage currents through the sample at differing temperatures to obtain ferroelectric hysteresis data for the sample
Performed analysis of the data to determine the material’s Curie temperate to within 2 degrees of the theoretical value
