In this study, ferroelectric phase transitions in BaTi0.94Sn0.06O3 (BTS) ceramic as a function of temperature are characterized with synchrotron X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) technique, dielectric and ferroelectric measurements. Dense BTS ceramic exhibits orthorhombic symmetry confirmed by Rietveld refinement and Raman spectroscopy. The rhombohedral-orthorhombic (R-O), orthorhombic-tetragonal (O-T) and tetragonal-cubic (T-C) ferroelectric phase transitions were clearly observed in the dielectric results. Furthermore, anomalous dielectric relaxation around 90-105 K which far below the R-O phase transition was evidently founded. In order to investigate the local structure, In-situ extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) was used especially at the ferroelectric phase transition region. The EXAFS results indicated a change in local structure around the Ti absorbing atom when the temperature increased. Evident of the O-T and T-O phase transitions is clearly seen in EXAFS results. Based on chemical analysis of bulk and surface of BTS ceramic by using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), anomalous dielectric relaxation should be attributed to mixed oxidation states of Sn.
