Recently, the need has arisen to enhance the piezoelectric properties and temperature stability of (Na,K)NbO3 system ceramics. The (0.965)(Li0.03(Na0.5K0.5)0.97)(Nb1−xSbx)O3−0.035 (Bi0.5Na0.5)0.9(Sr)0.1ZrO3 ceramics were newly manufactured using the sintering aids of CuO, B2O3, and ZnO as a function of antimony substitution, and the their crystal structure and electrical characteristics were analyzed. The grain size was apparently refined as the amount of antimony increased. The dielectric constant was enhanced and Curie temperature was decreased due to the content of the antimony substitution. The x = 0.07 sample sintered at 1060 °C presented the best electrical characteristics, which were bulk density = 4.488 g/cm3, piezoelectric constant d33 = 330 pC/N, electromechanical coupling factor kp = 0.427, mechanical coupling factor Qm = 61, and dielectric constant εr = 2521. We believe that the x = 0.07 sample is the best material for piezoelectric speakers.

(Na1-xBax)(Nb1-xTix)O3 (NNBTx; x=0.0-0.21) solid-solution ceramics were synthesized and their crystal structure, dielectric properties and piezoelectric properties were investigated. The crystal structure at room temperature of NNBTx varied from orthorhombic to tetragonal with increasing BaTiO3 content x. The phase boundary between orthorhombic and tetragonal at room temperature was confirmed BT content between x=0.08 and 0.09. For x>0.05, it was found that the Curie temperature was decreased with increasing x. The highest electromechanical coupling factor, kp, and the largest piezoelectric constant, d33, were obtained at x=0.09-0.10.

Extending the investigations on (Na0.5K0.5)NbO3-based solid solution for lead-free piezoelectric ceramics, this paper consider the complex solid-solution system (Na0.5K0.5)NbO3–Bi0.5(Na0.85K0.15)0.5TiO3[NKN-BNKT]. (Na0.5K0.5)NbO3with 2 ~ 6 mol% Bi0.5(Na0.85K0.15)0.5TiO3has been prepared following the conventional mixed oxide process. A morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) between orthorhombic (O) and hexagonal (H) was found at the composition 0.96NKN-0.04BNKT with correspondingly enhanced dielectric and piezoelectric properties. The electromechanical coupling factor and dielectric constant are higher for compositions near the MPB. The dielectric constant (KT33), planar coupling coefficient (kp) and thickness coupling coefficient (kt)of 0.96NKN-0.04BNKT ceramics were 1273, 34% and 38%, respectively.

Doping a small quantity of additive Bi2O3 is effective in suppressing the deliquescence of KNbO3 ceramics. When an optimized ball-milling process was included, dense and nondeliquescent KNbO3 ceramics were obtained by a conventional firing process. However, the presence of Bi prevented grain growth (<0.2 μm) and it was one of the causes of low ferroelectricity. Moreover, the insufficient resistivity made the poling treatment difficult. In order to improve the electric properties, a small quantity of additive MnCO3 was also doped into KNbO3 with 0.5 mass% Bi2O3. Codoping of KNbO3 with MnCO3 and Bi2O3 (abbreviated to KNBixMny; x = 0~1.0, y = 0~1.0 in mass%) improved the ferroelectricity of samples, and it also had an effect on the resistivity and densification of sintered bodies. Well-saturated P-E hysteresis loops were observed with any amount of Mn and the largest remanent polarization Pr was about 16 μC/cm2. The piezoelectric properties of KNBi0.5Mn0.3, which had the highest piezoelectricity in this study, are an electromechanical coupling factor k33 and piezoelectric constant d33 of 0.30 and 101 pC/N, respectively.

In the poling process of PZT ceramics, the poling temperature is a critical condition. When the poling temperature is too low, no matter how high is the poling field and how long is the poling time, the planar electromechanical coupling factor kpis lower. When the poling temperature is higher enough, the kpcan reach to a saturated value with a lower poling field and short poling time. The variation of dielectric constant with the poling conditions is the same as that of planar electromechanical coupling factor. When poling with a low temperature, the dielectric constant after poling is lower than 1400. When poling with higher temperature, no matter how high is the poling field and how long is the poling time, the dielectric constant after poling is higher than 1500.

(Na0.5Bi0.5)0.94Ba0.06TiO3 (NBBT) ceramics doped with 0.1∼2.0 mol.% Ba (Zr0.05Ti0.95)O3 were investigated in terms of the sintering, microstructure, phase transition, and piezoelectric properties. BZT doping has no remarkable effect on the microstructure and densification within the studied doping content. Up to 2 mol.% BZT can dissolve into the lattice of NBBT ceramics, and the structure symmetry is not changed. However, a significant change in the piezoelectric properties took place. The piezoelectric coefficient d33 for the 0.1 wt.% BZT-doped NBBT ceramics sintered at 1150 °C was found to be 120 pC/N and the electromechanical coupling factor kp = 0.24.

(Na,Bi)TiO3-BaTiO3lead free piezoelectric ceramics were fabricated with modification of CaCu3Ti4O12additives. The phase structure, morphology, dielectric and piezoelectric properties of prepared samples were investigated, respectively. It was found that CaCu3Ti4O12additives evidently improve the polarization properties of (Na,Bi)TiO3-BaTiO3lead free ceramics and the obtained samples exhibit an excellent piezoelectric properties (electromechanical coupling factorKp=31%, mechanical quality factorQm=151 and piezoelectric constantd33=160pC/N). According to results, the effect of CaCu3Ti4O12additives on electrical properties of (Na,Bi)TiO3-BaTiO3lead free piezoelectric ceramics is discussed.

AbstractAfter field cooling (FC) alternating current poling (ACP), we investigated the dielectric and piezoelectric properties of [001]pc-oriented 0.24Pb(In1/2Nb1/2)O3 (PIN)-0.46Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3 (PMN)-0.30PbTiO3 (PT) (PIMN-0.30PT) single crystals (SCs), which were manufactured by continuous-feeding Bridgman (CF BM) within morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) region. By ACP with 4 kVrms/cm from 100 to 70 °C, the PIMN-0.30PT SC attained high dielectric permittivity (ε33T/ε0) of 8330, piezoelectric coefficient (d33) of 2750 pC/N, bar mode electromechanical coupling factor k33 of 0.96 with higher phase change temperature (Tpc) of 103 °C, and high Curie temperature (TC) of 180 °C. These values are the highest ever reported as PIMN-xPT SC system with Tpc > 100 °C. The enhancement of these properties is attributed to the induced low symmetry multi-phase supported by phase analysis. This work indicates that FC ACP is a smart and promising method to enhance piezoelectric properties of relaxor-PT ferroelectric SCs including PIMN-xPT, and provides a route to a wide range of piezoelectric device applications.

Abstract We investigated the dielectric and piezoelectric properties of [001]-oriented 0.24Pb(In1/2Nb1/2)O3-0.46Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-0.30PbTiO3 (PIMN-0.30PT) single crystals (SCs) manufactured by continuous-feeding Bridgman (CF BM) within morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) region after field cooling alternating current poling (FC ACP). By optimized the FC ACP conditions of 4 kVrms/cm from 100 to 70 oC, the PIMN-0.30PT SC process attained ultrahigh dielectric permittivity (εT 33/ε0) of 8330 and piezoelectric coefficient (d33) of 2750 pC/N, and bar mode electromechanical coupling factor k33 of 0.96 with higher phase change temperature (Tpc) of 103 oC, respectively. These values are the highest ever reported as PIMN-xPT system SCs with Tpc > 100 oC. The enhancement of these properties of the PIMN-0.30PT SC is attributed to the induced low symmetry multi-phase supported by phase analysis. This work indicates that FC ACP is a smart and promising method to enhance piezoelectric properties of relaxor-PT ferroelectric SCs including PIMNT, which provide a route to a wide range of piezoelectric device applications.
