Barium titanate is the first ferroelectric ceramics and a good candidate for a variety of applications due to its excellent dielectric, ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties. Barium titanate is a member of a large family of compounds with the general formula ABO3 which is called perovskite. Barium titanate can be prepared using different methods. The synthesis method depends on the desired characteristics for the end application and the method used has a significant influence on the structure and properties of barium titanate materials. In this review paper, in Part II the properties of obtained materials and their application are presented.

Zr-doped Sr2Bi4Ti5O18 (SBTi) bismuth layer-structured ferroelectric ceramics were prepared and studied. XRD patterns revealed that all the ceramic samples were single phase compounds. SEM images showed that dense microstructures with uniform gain size were obtained in all samples. The effects of Zr4+ doping on the dielectric, ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties of SBTi ceramics were also investigated. It was found that Zr4+ dopant gradually decreased the Curie temperature (Tc), enhanced the remnant polarization (2Pr) and decreased the coercive field (Ec) of SBTi ceramics. Furthermore, the piezoelectric properties of the SBTi ceramics were improved by enlarging the content of Zr. The SBTi ceramics with 4 mol% of Zr4+ dopant exhibited good electrical properties: d33 = 21 pC/N, 2Pr = 14.3 μC/cm2, Tc = 251°C, εr = 376, tanδ = 1.8%.

Bi2VO5.5 (Bi4O11), which is the vanadium analog of the first member of the Aurivillius family of oxides of the general formula Bi2An−1BnO3n+3, has been prepared and characterized. The vanadate has the expected layered structure and is ferroelectric with a Curie temperature of 720 K. While we have not been able to synthesize the vanadium analog of the n = 2 member of the Aurivillius family, we have examined the structure and properties of a vanadate of the composition Bi2V3O9.
