%X The site occupations of Tm3+ ions in the BaTiO3 lattice has always been a controversial problem.For
ceramics prepared according to the nominal formula ( Ba1-x Tmx ) Ti1-x/4 O3 ( BTmT) and Ba ( Ti1-x Tmx ) O3
( BTTm) , X-ray diffraction ( XRD) and electron paramagnetic resonance ( EPR) techniques were used to
identify the site occupations of Tm3+ ions in the BaTiO3 lattice.The results indicated that the position of Tm3+ in
BaTiO3 lattice is related to Ba /Ti ratio.In the case of Ba /Ti>1, Tm3+ ions are basically insoluble in BaTiO3
lattice.When Ba /Ti<1,the solubility limit of Tm3+ ions at the Ba-sites in BTmT ceramics is x = 0.02,and these
ceramics exhibited a tetragonal perovskite structure. a conclusion can be drawn by comparing the volume of
crystal packages that Tm3+ ions showed the amphoteric behavior that occupied Ba sites and Ti sites.
