简介:采用丝印法在铝基板上制备具有低室温电阻率、适中热敏常数的负温度系数BaCo0.02ⅡCo0.04ⅢBi0.94O3/Ba0.5Bi0.5Fe0.9Sn0.1O3复合热敏厚膜。采用数字多用表、吉时利2400和阻抗分析仪对热敏厚膜的电学性能进行表征。结果表明:随着Ba0.5Bi0.5Fe0.9Sn0.1O3含量从0.05增加至0.25,厚膜的室温电阻率、热敏常数和峰值电压均有所增加且分别处于1.47-26.5Ω·cm、678-1345K和18.9-47.0V范围内,厚膜峰值电压对应的电流也有所降低且处于40-240mA范围。阻抗谱测试表明,这些热敏厚膜表现出非正常的异质电学微结构行为,由高阻态的晶粒和较低电阻态的晶界区域构成。由此可知,在BaCo0.02ⅡCo0.04ⅢBi0.94O3中添加Ba0.5Bi0.5Fe0.9Sn0.1O3改善了热敏行为但也恶化了电流特征.
