(Ba[Formula: see text]Ca[Formula: see text])(Zr[Formula: see text]Ti[Formula: see text])O3 (BCZT) lead-free ferroelectric ceramics were prepared at low sintering temperature via a hydrothermal route. The hydrothermal-synthesized BCZT precursor powder presents phase-pure perovskite structure and rather homogenous particles with dozens nanometers, which provides high sintering activity. Pure perovskite BCZT ceramics are synthesized at rather low sintering temperature accompanied by rather uniform microstructure morphology and high relative density. Dielectric peaks of the BCZT ceramics are rather broad, and their dielectric response behavior combines the characteristics of both the normal and relaxor ferroelectrics. The BCZT ceramics exhibit excellent ferroelectricity and promising electric energy density, which can be enhanced further with increasing electric field.

This article studies the microstructure and piezoelectric properties of low sintering temperature lead-free ceramics [Formula: see text]-doped with ZnO nanoparticles (noted as 0.48BZT-y, y is content of ZnO in wt%, y =0.00, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20 and 0.25). The obtained results of Raman scattering and dielectric measurements have confirmed that [Formula: see text] has occupied B site, to cause a deformation in the ABO3-type lattice of the 0.48BZT-y compounds. The 0.15 wt% ZnO-doped ceramic sintered at 1350[Formula: see text]C exhibited excellent piezoelectric parameters: [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text]. The obtained results indicate that the high-quality lead-free BZT–BCT ceramic could be successfully synthesized at a low sintering temperature of 1350[Formula: see text]C by doping an appropriated amount of ZnO.

Lead-free 0.996(Ba0.85Ca0.15)(Zr0.1Ti0.9)O3-0.004BiYO3 [BCZT-BY] ceramics were prepared by the conventional solid-state sintering method. By means of XRD, SEM, and quasi-static d33 meter etc., the effect of sintering temperature on the microstructure, piezoelectric and dielectric properties of BCZT-BY ceramics were investigated. All the ceramics possess a pure perovskite structure, indicating that Bi3+ and Y3+ are incorporated into Ba0.85Ca0.15Ti0.9Zr0.1O3 lattices to form a solid solution. The results show that the ceramics sintered at 1420°C exhibit the optimum electrical properties: d33 = 130 pC/N, kp = 18.2 %, εr = 4225, and tan δ = 1.95%, respectively.

The sintering temperature of BaTiO3powder was reduced to 950°C due to the Bi2O3-LiF-CaF2addition.Excellent densification was achieved after sintering at 950°C for 10h. The low sintering temperature of newly developed capacitor materials allows a co-firing with pure silver electrodes.The dielectric constant and the temperature stability of the dielectric constant satisfied the X9R standard, which dielectric properties of were ε25°C1115, ΔC/C25°C±12% (55~200°C), tanδ1.5% (25°C).

(1–[Formula: see text]Bi[Formula: see text]Na[Formula: see text]TiO3–[Formula: see text]BaTiO3 lead-free ceramics have been obtained from the conventional solid-state reaction sintering method. The structural properties were investigated from X-ray diffraction and Raman spectroscopy techniques. Results revealed well-crystallized ceramic samples with perovskite structure. Microstructural properties, obtained from scanning electron microscopy measurements, have shown high density with very low porosity level. The dielectric response, analyzed as a function of the temperature and several frequencies, showed very broad peaks with a strong frequency dependence of the temperature for the maximum dielectric permittivity for the modified system. Results were analyzed considering the influence of the BaTiO3 content on the studied physical properties.
