Abstract

BaBiO3 (perovskite) polycrystalline semiconducting material was synthesised by sol-gel chemical method. Structure of the sample was characterised by X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). Grain, Grain boundary topography and chemical composition of the sample
studied by using Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectrometry (EDS). Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) was used for the study of band structure. The result of XRD characterization was indicated as the
BaBiO3 is monoclinic perovskite and crystalline size is 85 nm. SEM image of the BaBiO3 showed the grain size of 85 nm. The FT-IR spectroscopy study showed that, the BaBiO3 has absorbent peak at 1420 cm-1
