The elastic properties of KF-substituted perovskite lead titanate ( PbTiO 3) were investigated by dielectric measurements and Brillouin light scattering. The ferroelectric phase transition occurred at substantially lower temperature due to KF substitution, which was attributed to the modification of the covalency in Pb – O and Ti – O bonds. The longitudinal acoustic (LA) mode of KF-substituted PbTiO 3 showed a frequency softening in the paraelectric phase, which was accompanied by increasing acoustic damping. This indicated that polarization fluctuations responsible for the acoustic anomalies were enhanced by KF substitution.

The donor doping of Nb5+ for Ti4+ in the B sites of BaTiO3 rapidly shifts the ferroelectric phase transition to a lower temperature and diffuses it, so that the electrocaloric ΔTmax gradually reduces and the temperature window becomes much wider.

Ba(Ti1−x−y SnxGey )O3 (BTSG-x-y; x = 0, 0.05; y = 0–0.05) powders were synthesized by a sol-gel (SG) method and for comparative purposes also by a mixed-oxide (MO) method. In this system, BaGeO3 functions as sintering additive. Due to smaller particle sizes of the SG powders a higher sintering activity was found, which resulted in reduced grain growth and in a more homogenous grain size distribution for the corresponding ceramics. The dependence on the paraelectric ⇆ ferroelectric phase transition, i.e. the phase transition temperature, thewidth of the transition region and completeness were examined by dielectric measurements,DTA as well as by SEM, EDX and XRD investigations with respect to the BaGeO3 content, synthesis method and sintering temperature. The phase transition temperatures of the SG ceramics are remarkably higher than those of the MO ceramics with the same nominal compositions. The reason is a lower tin concentration within the grains of SG ceramics as confirmed by EDX and XRD investigations. The presence of BaGeO3 in barium titanate–stannate system on the basis of a SG method caused an improved incorporation of tin in theBaTiO3 lattice.
