Abstract

In the present work, the prepared nano powders were thermally grown onto well cleaned glass substrates under the vacuum of 10-5 torr, using 12A4 Hind Hivac coating unit. The X-ray diffraction patterns shown that Sr doped BaTiO3 nanoparticles possess tetragonal structure and the deposited films were polycrystalline in nature. Absorption coefficient, extinction coefficient, optical band gap and refractive index of films were estimated from optical transmittance spectrum. The extinction coefficient of films decreases with increase in thickness and refractive index of the films increases with increase in thickness. The optical band gap energy value various from 3.90eV to3.75eV with increase of thickness..
