Hello all :o),

perhaps it is a silly question but why you only want the barium titinate as
a ceramic? If I
recall correctly you must use the average dielektrik constant (you have to
pay attention to
thickness) if you use different dieelctrics between two electrodes.
IMO you can submerge the BaTi-powder in something which is also a good
insulator, perhaps
paraffin. So you can pour this as a plate without having to use microwaves
or something
similar to in order to heat it up. The only problem is maybe how to get the
air out of the
paraffin, but a vacuum pump must do.
The result is a dielectrik plate with a constant of about 3000, I think.

Improvements and suggestions are welcome

Georg
