Structural studies on the addition characteristics of Nb ions to $BaTiO_3$ solid solutions were performed by XRD and SEM/EDS technique. The X-ray diffraction peaks of the (111), (200) and (002) planes of Nb-doped $BaTiO_3$ solid solutions with different mole% of Nb were analyzed. We also investigated the relationship between the dielectric and structural properties of Nb-doped $BaTiO_3$. The transition temperatures of $BaTiO_3$ solid solution doped with 0.5mole%Nb and 1.0 mole%Nb were ${\sim}116^{\circ}C$ and ${\sim}87^{\circ}C$, respectively, which were found to be shifted to very low temperature from the transition temperature of pure $BaTiO_3$ (about $125^{\circ}C$). As a result of analysis of 1/K versus T and ln[$(1/K)-(1/K_m)$ versus ($T-T_m$)] of the two compositions used in this experiment, the diffusivity slightly differs from that of pure $BaTiO_3$ at temperatures above Curie temperature. And this characteristic was analyzed by applying the modified Curie-Weiss law.

The temperature and frequency dependence of the dielectric constant of the BaTiO₃ substituted with two types of donor dopants, Nb⁵⁺ and Ta⁵⁺, respectively, were compared and analyzed. Dielectric specimens of four specific compositions, Ba_0.95Nb_0.05TiO₃, Ba_0.90Nb_0.10TiO₃, Ba_0.95Ta_0.05TiO₃, and Ba_0.90Ta_0.010TiO₃ were prepared by calcining at 1100 ℃ and sintering at 1300 ℃ to have a perovskite structure to measure capacitance. XRD and SEM analysis were used to observe the structure, with particular focus on the integration into the Nb⁵⁺ and Ta⁵⁺ substituted BaTiO₃ crystal lattice. X-ray diffraction peaks in the (200) and (002) planes were observed between 45.10° and 45.45° of the BaTiO₃ solid solution substituted with different fractions of Nb⁵⁺ and Ta⁵⁺. The dielectric properties were analyzed and the relationship between the properties and structure of the substituted BaTiO₃ was established. The fine particles and high density of the substituted BaTiO₃ were maintained like pure BaTiO₃, and in particular, a shift toward the low temperature side of the phase transition temperature range was clearly found, unlike pure BaTiO₃. In addition, the phase transition at a temperature higher than the Curie temperature relatively satisfies the modified Curie-Weiss law.

Dielectric properties of $xBaTiO_3-(1-x)CoFe_2O_4$ composite materials have been investigated. Dielectric properties of $BaTiO_3$, $CoFe_2O_4$ and $0.5BaTiO_3-0.5CoFe_2O_4$ samples show frequency dependence, which is classified as relaxor behavior with different relaxing degree. The relaxor behaviors were described using the modified Curier-Weiss and Vogel-Fulcher laws. Among three above samples, the $BaTiO_3$ sample has highest relaxing degree. Photoluminescence spectral indicated defects, which might in turn control relaxing degree.
