Abstract
The reaction sequence in the BaTiO3-Nb2O5-Bi2O5 system leading to the core-shell microstructure that causes the temperature-stable dielectri c response has been examined using X-ray diffraction. The starting oxi des react to form bismuth oxide layer Aurivillius phases at low temper atures which, in turn, react with remnant oxides to form the tetragona l tungsten bronze phase, Ba4Bi2Ti4Nb6O30, which acts as the source of dopants responsible for core-shell formation.
