Piezoelectric and dielectric properties of (LixNa1-x)NbO3 (LNN100x; x≤0.14) ceramics were investigated according to phase transition The highest electromechanical coupling factor, kp, of 0.247 was obtained for LNN12 which has a composition with a morphotropic phase boundary at room temperature. On the other hand, the coupling factor of k33 with longitudinal mode was almost constant for all compositions of x. The dielectric constant, ε r, before poling treatment exhibited a thermal hysteresis near the Curie temperature, TC, for all compositions. The depolarization temperature of LNN6 was higher than the TC before poling treatment. In addition, the peak of free permittivity, ε33 T, was shifted to higher temperature. It was considered that the phase transition was induced by the electric field during poling treatment.

Electrical and piezoelectric properties of CaBi2Ta2O9-based ceramics have been studied. Temperature dependence of dielectric properties indicated that the Curie temperature, TC, was 923°C. Coercive field, EC, and remanent polarization, Pr, became saturated with increasing temperature. It is expected that higher-temperature than 250°C could promote the domain wall motion during the poling treatment. From resonance and antiresonance measurements, piezoelectric properties such as the maximum phase, max, electromechanical coupling factor, k33, and piezoelectric g constant, g33, were 86.1º, 0.085 and 8.4 × 10-3 V∙m/N, at room temperature, respectively.

Barium titanate (BaTiO3) ceramics with a high-density were fabricated by two-step sintering method from hydrothermally synthesized 100 nm BaTiO3 nano-particles. The best specimen with an average grain size of 1.6 μm and a density of 5.91 g/cm3 (98.3% of the theoretical value). The dielectric constant was 4500 and electromechanical coupling factor kp was 45%. Large piezoelectric constants d33 = 460 pC/N and d31 = -185 pC/N were observed in the specimens. This was an important practical result towards obtaining a high d33 in non-lead-based BaTiO3 ceramics manufactured by a low-cost process. These results also indicated the possibility of using BaTiO3 ceramics in piezoelectric devices at room temperature. Temperature dependence of dielectric constant showed two peaks located at 24 and 126 oC, corresponding to orthorhombic-to-tetragonal phase transition temperature Tot and Curie temperature Tc, respectively. Owing to the size effect of nanocrystals, Tot shifted to 24 oC. The maximum of electromechanical coupling factor kp appeared close to the phase transition temperature. It also caused a very large temperature coefficient of resonance frequency from room temperature to 60 oC. Hysteresis curve measurement showed a very low coercive field Ec = 115 V/mm. A large Poisson’s ratio, about 0.38, was determined from the ratio of overtone frequency and resonant frequency in the planar mode. The high Poisson’s ratio and the large dielectric constants are most likely the origin of the high piezoelectric constants in the ceramics.

(K,Na)NbO3(KNN)-based lead-free piezoelectric ceramic could be fabricated by ordinary solid sintering method.This paper reported preferable properties of solid solutions (1-x)(Na0.535K0.480)NbO3-xLiNbO3(x=0.050,0.055,0.060,0.065 and 0.070 successively) all sintered at 1060°C.The nonconservation of charge suppressed negative effects caused by evaporations of K&Na and doped Li occupied A sites in ABO3perovskite structure lattices led to the intensification of lattice distortion.XRD result showd phase transition from coexistence of orthorhombic and tetragonal symmetry to tetragonal.Polymorphic phase boundary could be observed when 0.050≤ x≤ 0.060.Coexistence of orthorhombic and tetragonal phases brought improvements of piezoelectric coefficient d33and electromechanical coupling factor kp,whose top values were 162 pC/N and 28.1% in this paper. Positive correlation between the Curie temperature and Li content proved that a distorted crystal lattice needed more energy to accomplish its phase transition from tetragonal to cubic than a normal one.

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.

(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.

(1-x)(Bi1/2Na1/2)TiO3-xBiAlO3 [BNTA100x (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.14)] ceramics were prepared by a conventional ceramic fabrication process. Single-phase perovskite structures were formed when x ≤ 0.08 for BNTA100x. The depolarization temperature, Td, at which piezoelectricity disappears, decreased with increasing x. The piezoelectric constant, d33, increased with increasing x because of the increase in free permittivity accompanied with decreasing Td. d33 and the electromechanical coupling factor, k33, of BNTA6 were 93 pC/N and 0.41, respectively. Normalized strain d33* (= Smax/Emax) at 60 kV/cm at the maximum field-induced strain was 122.2 pm/V for BNTA8. The value of d33* was higher than the calculated value of d33.

Abstract Piezoelectric and pyroelectric properties as well as strain behavior of 0.5 mol% Mn-doped 0.36Pb(In1/2Nb1/2)O3-0.36Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-0.28PbTiO3 (Mn-PIMNT) ceramics were studied. High piezoelectric coefficient of d33 = 235 pC/N, planar electromechanical coupling factor of kp = 43.1% and the high-power Figure of Merit (FOM = 60160 pC/N) were achieved in Mn-PIMNT ceramics. Furthermore, the ceramics exhibited high pyroelectric coefficient of p = 4.8×10-4 Cm-2K-1, figures of merit for the current responsivity of Fi = 1.92×10-10 mV-1, the voltage responsivity of Fv = 0.028 m2C-1, and the detectivity of Fd = 2.317×10-5 Pa-1/2 at room temperature. The excellent piezoelectric and pyroelectric properties together with high ferroelectric rhombohedral to tetragonal phase transition temperature of Trt = 146 ℃ and ferroelectric tetragonal to cubic phase transition temperature of TC = 188 ℃ make the Mn-PIMNT ceramics suitable for high-temperature piezoelectric and pyroelectric devices.

The effect of AgSbO3on the piezoelectric properties of (K0.5Na0.5)0.95Li0.05NbO3was examined. The AgSbO3doped KNLN samples sintered at 1050°C showed the maximum values of the sintering density of 4.56 g/cm3compared to un-doped KNLN samples sintered at same temperature with 4.25 g/cm3. Moreover, the addition of AgSbO3enhanced the piezoelectric and dielectric properties. Piezoelectric constant (d33), the planar electromechanical coupling factor (kp) and the relative dielectric permittivity (K33T) increased up to 230pC/N, 43.5%, 1080, respectively, with addition of AgSbO3.

The electrical properties and phase transition behavior of the sodium niobate-based solid solution (1-x)Li0.12Na0.88NbO3-xNa0.91Ba0.09Nb0.91Ti0.09O3 [(1-x)LNN12-xNNBT9] ceramics were investigated. The lattice constant changes became discontinuitous between LNNBT0.5 and LNNBT0.7. Moreover, the peak dielectric constant of LNNBT0.7 is twice that of LNNBT0.5. X-ray diffraction analysis and dielectric study confirmed that the different crystal phases of what are LNN-type rhombohedral (x=0), LNN-type orthorhombic (x=0.1, 0.3 and 0.5), NNBT-type orthorhombic (x= 0.7 and 0.9) and NNBT-type tetragonal (x= 1.0) phases. An electromechanical coupling factor of 0.244 was obtained for LNNBT0.7 whose composition is near the boundary between the LNN-type and NNBT-type orthorhombic phases.
