Thick-film thermistor with negative temperature coefficient（NTC）, low room-temperature resistivity and modest thermistor constant was screen-printed on the alumina substrate by the combination of 30.94III0.04II0.02 B OBi Coa Co with Ba0.5Bi0.5Fe0.9Sn0.1O3. The electrical properties of the thick films were characterized by a digital multimeter, a Keithley 2400 and an impedance analyzer. The results show that with the Ba0.5Bi0.5Fe0.9Sn0.1O3 content increasing from 0.05 to 0.25, the values of room-temperature resistivity, thermistor constant and peak voltage of the thick films increases and are in the ranges of 1.47-26.5 ？·cm, 678-1345 K and 18.9-47.0 V, respectively. The corresponding current at the peak voltage of the thick films decreases and is in the range of 40-240 m A. The impedance spectroscopy measurement demonstrates that the as-prepared thick films show the abnormal electrical heterogeneous microstructure, consisting of high-resistive grains and less resistive grain boundary regions. It can be concluded that the addition of Ba0.5Bi0.5Fe0.9Sn0.1O3 into 30.94III0.04II0.02 Ba Co OBi Co improves the thermistor behavior and but also deteriorates the current characteristics.
