Lead-free (1-x)K0.5Na0.5NbO3–xLiNbO3 piezoelectric ceramics have been prepared by a conventional solid state process. The phase structure and the electrical properties of the ceramics were studied. A polymorphic phase transition (PPT) between the orthorhombic and tetragonal phases was identified in the composition range of 0.08<x<0.10. The ceramics near the PPT show better piezoelectric properties. At a level of 10mol% LiNbO3, the sample sintered at 1100oC for 1h exhibits optimal piezoelectric properties.

Lead-free (1-x)[(Na0.515K0.485)0.94Li0.06(Nb0.99Ta0.01)O3]-xBiAlO3 (NKLNT-BA; x = 0, 0.005, 0.010, 0.015, and 0.020) ceramics were fabricated by a conventional mixed-oxide method. The effects of BiAlO3 addition on the phase structure, microstructure and electrical properties of ceramic were then studied. The result indicated that grain size decreased with increasing of BiAlO3 content. In the composition range studied, the perovskite phase with the coexistence of the orthorhombic and tetragonal phases was identified at approximately x 0.005 by the X-ray diffraction analysis and dielectric spectroscopy, which led to a significant enhancement of the piezoelectric properties. The tetragonality increased with further increasing x. The temperature dependence of dielectric properties showed that the addition of BiAlO3 slightly decreased the ferroelectric tetragonal-paraelectric cubic phase transition temperature (TC), but greatly shifted the polymorphic phase transition from the ferroelectric orthorhombic to the ferroelectric tetragonal phase (TOT) to lower room temperature. The dielectric and piezoelectric properties are enhanced for the composition near the orthorhombic-tetragonal polymorphic phase boundary. The unmodified-(Na0.515K0.485)0.94Li0.06(Nb0.99Ta0.01)O3 ceramics exhibit optimum electrical properties (d33 = 225 pC/N and TC = 418°C).

Lead-free (1-x-y)Na1/2Bi1/2TiO3-xBaTiO3-yBiFeO3 ceramics were synthesized by ordinary sintering technique. The compositional dependence of phase structure and electrical properties of the ceramics was systematically investigated. All samples possessed pure perovskite structure. The dielectric and piezoelectric properties of ceramics were investigated with the amount of different BiFeO3 substitutions. The addition of BiFeO3 can not only decrease Ec and Pr but also lead to a significant degradation of the dielectric loss tanδ.

(0.996-x) K0.5Na0.5NbO3- 0.004 BiFeO3- x LiSbO3 (x =0.00, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04, 0.05, 0.06, 0.07) lead-free piezoelectric ceramics were prepared by the conventional mixed oxide method. The compositional dependence of the phase structure and the electrical properties of the ceramics were studied. A morphotropic phase boundary between the orthorhombic and tetragonal phases was identified in the composition range of 0.03 < x < 0.06. With the content of LS increases, the size of the pores significantly decreases. However, adding larger amount of LS makes the pore size increase slightly. The (0.996-x)KNN-0.004 BF-xLS(x=0.05) ceramics possess good electrical properties: d33 = 280 pC/N, kp = 53.3%, Tc = 345 °C, εr = 1613, Tan δ =2.07%. These results show that the ceramic is a promising lead-free piezoelectric material.

Doping effect on the lattice parameters, vibration modes, dielectric and piezoelectric properties of LiSbO3, LiTaO3 and LiNbO3 substituted lead-free K0.5Na0.5NbO3 (KNN) ceramics are investigated. All compositions are crystallized in morphotropic phase boundary region. Enhanced piezoelectric and electromechanical response d33 ~176–197 pC/N, kp ~45%–48%, and kt~34%–47% obtained in the doped ceramics are due to the presence of the polymorphic phase transition between orthorhombic and tetragonal phase at room temperature.

(1- x) K0.5Na0.5NbO3 – x BiFeO3 lead-free piezoelectric ceramics were prepared by the conventional ceramic processing. The compositional dependence of the phase structure and the electrical properties of the ceramics were studied. A morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) between the orthorhombic and tetragonal phases was identified in the composition range of x = 0.01. The ceramics exhibit a strong compositional dependence and enhanced piezoelectric properties. The ceramics with 0.6 mol.% BF exhibit good electrical properties (d33 ~146 pC/N, kp ~51%, Tc ~405°C, To-t ~185 °C, εr ~432, and tan θ~ 4.60 %. The related mechanism of the enhanced electrical properties of the ceramics was also discussed. These results show that the air-sintered (1−x) KNN− x BF (0.006 < x < 0.01) ceramic is a promising lead-free piezoelectric material.

In this study, the effects of sintering temperature on microstructure, dielectric and piezoelectric properties are investigated for the non-stoichiometric (Na0.48K0.473Li0.04Sr0.007)(Nb0.883Ta0.05Sb0.06Ti0.007)O3 (NKLNTSST) piezoelectric ceramics. The results suggest that the piezoelectric properties are enhanced owing to the more normal ferroelectric characteristics, higher density, more uniform grains and presence of polymorphic phase transition regions, which are observed with an increase in the sintering temperature up to 1080?C. The piezoelectric properties are weakened owing to the larger degree of diffuse phase transition and more cationoxygen-vacancy pairs with an increase in the sintering temperature above 1080?C. The best piezoelectric properties including kp = 40%, d33 = 288 pC/N, ?max = 72.12, loss = 2.57%, Ec = 13.45 kV/cm and Pr = 10.23 ?C/cm2 are obtained at the sintering temperature of 1080?C.
