| Research Abstract |
SnO_2-TiO_2 binary system is well known to exhibit an absolute solid solution and spinodal decomposition with characteristic lamellar structure. Such a phase separation is expected to forms self-organized structure with coherent and clean interface between different phases in nanometer scale. In this study, trivalent Fe^<3+> ion was doped to the system in order to control the both microstructures and electrical properties simultaneously. Through the experimental work, it was firstly revealed that self-organized phase-separation with characteristic periodic ordered-structure could be successfully obtained for the as-sintered samples without any annealing. The characteristic phase-separated microstructures and properties by doping to the binary oxide system was caused by the thermodynamical control of the system. It is thus concluded that the present materials design is useful and expectable to develop new-type of ceramic composite with nano-scaled hetero-structures.
