| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this research project, we have conducted electron microscopic analysis of ferroelectric nanoparticle, which is a promising material for future electronic devices wherein downsizing and improving is strongly demanded. Using scanning transmission electron microscopy (STEM) by which atomic position can be determined at high precision, atomic resolution images were acquired. We have measured STEM image from multiple fields of view and connect them to unravel the lattice constant and ionic position in the unit cell and their spatial distribution in the particle. We have characterized commercially available barium titanate (BaTiO3) nanoparticle and found that Ba ion largely displaced by larger than 20 pm. This implies that dielectric and ferroelectric properties of the particle is affected by the surface.
