The (Na0.52K0.44)(Nb0.9Sb0.06)O3-0.04LiTaO3 (NKNS-LT) ceramics doped with various Cu2O contents were prepared by the conventional solid state reaction method. The Cu2O content was varied in the range of 0.1~0.4 wt%. The effects of Cu on microstructure, crystallographic phase transition, and piezoelectric properties were investigated. The material with perovskite structure had a tetragonal phase (T1) when Cu2O concentration was less than 0.3 wt% and it was transformed to another tetragonal phase (T2) when the Cu2O amount was greater than 0.3 wt%. The phase boundary between T1 and T2 phases was appeared at around 0.3 wt% of Cu2O concentration. The piezoelectric properties were shown the maximum values at the composition of the phase boundary. The electro-mechanical coupling factor (kp) was 0.42 and the piezoelectric charge constant (d33) was 245 pC/N at the 0.3 wt% of Cu2O concentration.

Lead-based piezoelectric ceramics have excellent piezoelectric properties with the compositions near the rhombohedral-tetragonal morphotropic phase boundary (MPB)[1,2]. In these materials, the dielectric and piezoelectric properties show the maximal values at MPB. For lead-free piezoelectric ceramics, finding the MPB area is a promising way to improve their properties. In this paper, the (1-x-y)BaZrO3-x(K0.45Na0.5Li0.05)NbO3-yBi (Mg0.5Ti0.5)O3 lead-free piezoelectric ceramics were prepared by solid-state reaction method, and their piezoelectric properties and dielectric properties were investigated. With the increase of KNLN content, the crystal structure changed from rombohedral phase to tetragonal phase, thus existed a MPB[3,4] between rombohedral and tetragonal phase. At room temperature, the specimen with the composition at MPB (x=0.93, y=0.01) shows the optimal piezoelectric properties (d33=225pC/N and kp=45%), which indicates that this material is a potential lead-free piezoceramic.

Ba0.85Ca0.15Ti0.9Zr0.1O3-xLi2CO3 lead-free piezoelectric ceramics (abbreviated as BCZT-xLi) were prepared by conventional solid state reaction method. The microstructure, piezoelectric properties and dielectric properties were studied for BCZT-xLi samples doped with different Li2CO3 content(x= 0, 0.05, 0.1 0.2 0.3, 0.4wt. %). The results show that the piezoelectric constant(d33), planar electron mechanical coupling coefficient(kp) and thickness electron mechanical(kt) of BCZ-T-xLi ceramics increase firstly and decreases subsequently with increasing of Li+ doping amount, the dielectric loss(tanδ) of BCZT-xLi ceramics decreases firstly and then increases at the same time while Li+ doping amount increases. But the r-elative permittivity (εr) of BCZT-xLi ceramics increases all the time. With the in-creasing of the amount of Li2CO3 doped the grain size of BCZT-Li ceramic first increases and then decreases. The BCZT-xLi ceramics display the optimum properties (d33=83, tanδ=0.035, εr=2020, kp=0.41, kt=0.046) while Li2CO3 doped amount is 0.20wt. %.

Lead-free piezoelectric ceramics Sr2Bi4-xGdxTi5O18 were prepared by conventional solid-state reaction method. Pure bismuth layered structural ceramics with uniform gain size were obtained in all samples. The effect of Gd-doping on the dielectric, ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties of Sr2Bi4Ti5O18 ceramics were also investigated. It was found that that Gd3+ dopant gradually decreased the Curie temperature (Tc) with the lower dielectric loss (tand) of SBTi ceramics. In addition, Gd-doping with appropriate content improved the ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties of the SBTi ceramics. The piezoelectric constant (d33) of the Sr2Bi3.9Gd0.1Ti5O18 ceramic reached the maximum value, which is 22 pC/N. The results showed that the Sr2Bi4-xGdxTi5O18 ceramic was a promising lead-free piezoelectric material.

(1-x)(K0.44Na0.52Li0.04)(Nb0.84Ta0.10Sb0.06)O3-xSrTiO3 (KNNT-ST) lead free piezoelectric ceramics have been synthesized by a solid state reaction method. The effect of SrTiO3 content on the piezoelectric properties, sintering behavior and microstructure of (1-x) KNNT-x ST ceramics was investigated. The experimental results showed that the addition of SrTiO3 can restrain the volatilization of Na ions and K ions and improve relative density of the samples. A morphotropic phase boundary between orthorhombic and tetragonal phases is found in the composition range of 0.03<x<0.05. The piezoelectric properties can be enhanced for (1-x) KNNT-x ST ceramics near the morphotropic phase boundary.

This work reports the influence of sintering temperature on structure, microstructure and piezoelectric properties of 0.48 Ba(Zr[Formula: see text]Ti[Formula: see text])O3–0.52 (Ba[Formula: see text]Ca[Formula: see text])TiO3(BZT–BCT) doped with ZnO nanoparticle ceramics manufactured by a conventional solid state reaction method. By increasing sintering temperature, the piezoelectric behaviors were improved and rose up to the best parameters at a sintering temperature of 1450[Formula: see text]C ([Formula: see text] pC/N and [Formula: see text]). The corresponding properties of undoped BZT–BCT ceramics were investigated as a comparison. The received results show that the sintering behavior and piezo-parameters of doped BZT–BCT samples are better than the undoped BZT–BCT samples at each sintering temperature.

AbstractNa1-xLixNbO3ceramics (for x = 0.08, 0.1, 0.2) were fabricated by the conventional solid state reaction method. The influence of LiNbO3on the microstructure, electric, thermal properties of Na1-xLixNbO3ceramics was studied and a significant influence of doped Li ions on the electrical properties was observed. The electrical properties were improved and are described as the best for x = 0.1 (near a morphotropic phase boundary) Na1–xLixNbO3solid solutions. After crossing the morphotropic phase boundary for x = 0.2, the electric properties are getting worse. These types of solid compounds show some interesting properties suitable for practical applications.

Abstract (K,Na,Li)NbO3-BaZrO3-(Bi,Na)TiO3-x B2O3 (abbreviated as KNLN-BZ-BNT-x B2O3) ceramics were prepared by conventional solid state reaction method. The effects of B2O3 content on dielectric and piezoelectric properties of the KNLN-BZ-BNT ceramics have been studied. Based on the identification by X-ray diffraction (XRD), all the samples show a two-phase coexistence zone consisting of rhombohedral (R) and tetragonal (T) phases. For the ceramics with x = 0.5 wt%, the sintering temperature was observed to reduce from 1200 oC to 940 oC, while the samples maintained a high relative density around 97%. Because of the high densification and large grain size, the dielectric and piezoelectric properties were improved. As a result, the ceramics with x = 0.5 wt% sintered at 940 oC exhibited good properties of d 33 = 197 pC/N, k p= 0.29, tan δ = 0.029 and ε r = 1889, together with a Curie temperature (T C) of 222 oC.

Ce3+-doped 0.5La2O3-2SrO-0.5Al2O3 (LSA:Ce) phosphors had been successfully synthesized using a conventional solid-state reaction method under reducing atmosphere (H2/N2 =1/5). The phase, morphologies and luminescence properties of the LSA:Ce phosphors were investigated. The emission intensity of LSA:Ce phosphors was improved by the addition of SrF2 as flux, and red shift of PL spectra peak was observed in this phosphors. Research results shown that the LSA:Ce phosphors have the potential to meet the development of white light-emitting diodes.
