    Strontium and Yttrium-doped and co-doped BaTiO3 (BT) ceramics with the stoichiometric formulas BaTiO3, B1-xSrxTiO3, Ba1-xYxTiO3, BaTi1-xYxO3, Ba1-xYxTi1-xYxO3, and Ba1-xSrxTi1-xYxO3 (x = 0.075) noted as BT, BSrT, BYT, BTY, BYTY, and BSrTY have been synthesized through sol-gel method. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns of the prepared ceramics, calcined at a slightly low temperature (950 degrees C/3h), displayed that BT, BSrT, and BYT ceramics possess tetragonal structures and BTY, BYTY, and BSrTY have a cubic structure. The incorporation of the Ba and/or Ti sites by Sr2+ and Y3+ ions in the lattice of BaTiO3 ceramic and the behaviors of the crystalline characteristics in terms of the Y and Sr dopant were described in detail. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images demonstrated that the densification and grain size were strongly related to Sr and Y elements. UV-visible spectroscopy was used to study the optical behavior of the as-prepared ceramic samples and revealed that Sr and Y dopants reduce the optical band gap energy to 2.74 eV for the BSrTY compound. The outcomes also demonstrated that the levels of Urbach energy are indicative of the created disorder following the inclusion of Yttrium. The measurements of the thermal conductivity indicated the influence of the doping mechanism on the thermal conductivity results of the synthesized samples. Indeed, the thermal conductivity of BaTiO3 is decreased with Sr and Y dopants and found to be in the range of 085-2.23 W.m(-1). K-1 at room temperature and decreases slightly with increasing temperature from 2.02 to 0.73-W.m(-1). K-1. Moreover, the microstructure and grains distribution of the BT, BSrT, BYT, BTY, BYTY, and BSrTY samples impacted the compressive strength, hence; the compressive strength was minimized as the grain size decreased.
