Abstract: The sol-gel process was utilized in the production of the ferroelectric material Ba0.7Sr0.3TiO3. Barium and strontium acetate were employed as sources for Ba and Sr, respectively, and Ti(IV) isopropoxide was used as a source for Ti. The acetic acid was utilized as a solvent for Ba and Sr acetate, whereas 2-methoxy ethanol was used as a stabilizer for Ti (IV) isopropoxide. The effect of high temperatures on electrical and structural were studied. The FESEM revealed the particle size of all samples with different temperatures. The XRD shows the Ba0.7Sr0.3TiO3 samples have a tetragonal phase for all temperatures (1000, 1100, 1200˚C). The high temperatures impacted tetragonality and the lattice constant (a, c); the lattice constant decreased at higher temperatures. The ferroelectric sample sintered at 1000 degrees Celsius had dielectric characteristics that were inferior to those of the Ba0.7Sr0.3TiO3sample sintered at 1100 and 1200ºC degrees Celsius. When the dielectric constant was graphed as a function of temperature, the Curie temperature appeared to be between (28-32) degrees Celsius.
