Abstract
Thin amorphous PTC-films of 1 µm thickness were produced by rf-sputtering at room temperature. A subsequent annealing process enabled us to prepare different grain sizes which have been characterised by x-ray powder diffraction. At the transition from the amorphous to the nanocrystalline state the elastic modulus c11 measured by HR-Brillouin spectroscopy exhibited a surprising instability. The dielectric constant showed not only the expected increase with increasing grain size but also a significant relaxor behavior.
