Abstract: An appropriate amount of stearic acid was melted at 70 ℃, into which tetrabutyl titanate was added while stirring. Then the solution was cooled in cool water to form a gel. By controlling the amount of oxygen during the calcining procedure, nanocrystalline TiO2 powder with even grain size and good dielectric properties were obtained. The surface state was analyzed by means of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and surface photovoltage spectroscopy. The results of experiments show that the surface structure of nanocrystalline TiO2 is not integrate mainly due to the existence of oxygen cavities and most of the exposing atoms on the grain surface are Ti4+. The surface states of nanocrystalline materials put important influence on their dielectric properties and make the static state dielectric constant much bigger than that of bulk material.
