In this paper, (K0.5Na0.53)0.932Nb0.932O3-0.008BF-0.06LS (abbreviated as KNN-BF-LS) piezoelectric ceramic was prepared by sol-gel method. Structure and properties of ceramics were analyzed.Through analysis of the results, when sintering temperature is 1080°C, ceramic has good perovskite structure. At this temperature, grain size is more uniform, and structure is the most dense. Piezoelectric constant d33, electromechanical coupling coefficient Kp, dielectric constant εr reached the maximum value, respectively, 113pC/N, 0.33, 591. Dielectric loss tanδ reached the minimum 0.11.

In this study, we investigate the piezoelectric characteristics of 0.55Pb(Ni1/3Nb2/3)O3-0.45Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 (PNN-PZT) with MnO2 additive (0, 0.25, 0.5, 1, 2, and 3 mol%). We focus on the fabrication of a piezoelectric ceramic for use as both actuator and sensor for ultrasound transducers. The actuator and sensor properties of a piezoelectric ceramic depend on the piezoelectric strain coefficient d and piezoelectric voltage coefficient g, related as g = d/εT. To increase g, the dielectric constant εT must be decreased. PNN-PZT with MnO2 doping is synthesized using the conventional solid-state reaction method. The electrical properties are determined based on the resonant frequencies and vibration modes measured by using an impedance analyzer. The MnO2 addition initially improves the tetragonality of the PNN-PZT ceramic, which then saturates at a MnO2 content of 1 mol%. Therefore, the dielectric constant and piezoelectric coefficient d33 steadily decrease, while the mechanical properties (Qm, Young’s modulus), tanδ, electromechanical coupling coefficient k, and piezoelectric voltage coefficient g were improved at 0.5–1 mol% MnO2 content.

Three different SrFe x Ti 1-x O 3(x = 0.001, x = 0.005, x = 0.01) ceramics were prepared by the conventional solid-state reaction. The crystalline structure, surface morphology and dielectric properties were studied by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Agilent 4294A impedance analyzer, respectively. It is shown that both the sintering temperature and doping concentration influence the lattice constant, grain size, dielectric constant and the dielectric loss. When the sintering temperature is higher than 1390°C, the lattice constant, grain size and dielectric constant all decrease with the increase of the doping concentration, except the dielectric loss tangent which shows the opposite trend. Leakage current tests show that the leakage current density falls down with the increase of Fe doping concentration in the given region.

An Al2O3-SiO2-PbO-MgO laminated tape system was prepared to investigate the dependence of some physical properties on various sintering temperatures, 840 °C, 880 °C, 920 °C and 960 °C. The results show that the effect of the increasing sintering temperatures was a fluctuating in the density value of the laminates. It was also observed that the dielectric constant and dielectric loss showed the lowest value for the sintering temperature of 880 °C. SEM micrographs of the laminate samples shows a mixture of grain sizes and the samples had a combination of small and large pores with the average grain size around 2.20-2.64 m.

Ba0.85Ca0.15Ti0.9Zr0.1O3 (BCTZ) ceramics, one of the lead-free pizoelectric materials, were focused due to the environmental concern against lead. A modified BCTZ powder sol-gel fabrication process was experimentally introduced with the addition of glycerol, in order to provide an effective approach to optimize the piezoelectric response of BCTZ ceramics. The results showed that the piezoelectric properties enhanced in terms of the piezoelectric coefficient of d33, 510 pC/N and the electromechanical coupling coefficient of kp, 0.501. The enhancement in electrical properties, such as dielectric, ferroelectric and piezoelectric, could be related to the homogenous microstructure and larger grain size of BCTZ ceramic powders after the introduction of glycerol during the modified sol-gel strategy.

Sr - doped NiO ceramic was prepared using solid state method. The calcination temperature used at 950 oC for 4 hours and the sintering temperatures was varied from 1100 to 1300 oC for 3 hours. The results depict the microstructures increasing in grains size (1-8 μm) by increase of sintering temperatures. The density and porosity testing support the result of microstructures analysis. The larger grains size induced the increase in density and lower in porosity. The dielectric properties is observed in a wide frequency range of (1 - 1 000 MHz). The increase of dielectric constant is associated with the decrease of dielectric loss. The optimum sintering temperature was obtained at 1200 oC depict the grain size range (1 - 2 μm) with highest dielectric constant (1.61 x 103) and lowest dielectric loss (1.15) at 1MHz.

In the present work, the microstructure and microwave dielectric properties of BaTi4O9 ceramics derived from a sol-gel precursor were presented. Density measuring results demonstrated that the largest densities of ceramic sample about 96.7% could be reached by virtue of a cool iso-static press and a sintering process at at 1300 °C for 6 hours. The dielectric constant (εr), quality factor (Q×f) and the temperature coefficients (τf) of the BaTi4O9 ceramic samples were 36.65, 28000 GHz, +20.2 ppm/°C, respectively. XRD, SEM and XPS were used to characterize the microstructure of the ceramics samples. Substantial Ti3+ was proposed to be the cause of dielectric loss.

Sr0.48Ba0.24Ca0.28TiO3-based varistor ceramics with an excellent capacitor-varistor multifunctional characteristics (V1mA = 11 ~ 49 ν.mm-1, α = 6.1 ~ 11.3, ε r max=3.5×105, tanδmin = 5%) were prepared using conventional solid method. The effect of oxidation temperature and time on structure and electrical properties were investigated. The results show that with increasing the oxidation temperature from 800°C to 900°C, the varistor voltage V1mA and non-linearity coefficient α defining varistor characteristics increase linearly, while the dielectric constant ε r and dielectric loss tanδ decrease linearly. There exists an optimum α value when the specimens were oxidized at 850°C for 3h. This behavior was explained through various defect reactions of dopants.

In this paper, the effects of different sintering temperature on the microstructure and piezoelectric properties of Pb(Nb2/3Zn1/3)0.03(Zr52Ti48)0.97O3(PNZZT) ceramic samples were investigated. The Pb(Nb2/3Zn1/3)0.03(Zr52Ti48)0.97O3 ceramics materials was prepared by a conventional mixed oxide method. In the period of the experiment, the relationship between crystallographic phase and microstructure were analyzed by X-ray diffraction(XRD) and scanning electron microscopy(SEM) respectively. The XRD patterns shows that all of the ceramic samples are with a tetragonal perovskite structure. Along with sintering temperature increased and the x is 0.03, the grain size gradually become big. Through this experiment, it has been found that when the x is 0.03 and sintered at 1130°C for 2 h, the grains grow well, the grain-boundary intersection of the sample combined well and the porosity of the ceramics decreased, an excellent comprehensive electrical properties of the Pb(Nb2/3Zn1/3)0.03(Zr52Ti48)0.97O3 samples can be obtained. Its best electrical properties are as follows: dielectric constant (ε) is 1105, dielectric loss(tg) is 0.017, electromechanical coupling coefficient (Kp) is 0.287, piezoelectric constant(d33) is 150PC/N

Periodic and non-periodic 1-3 type cement based piezoelectric composites were fabricated by cut and filling technique, using P(MN)ZT ceramic as functional material and cement as matrix. The influences of periodicity of piezoelectric ceramic rods in the composites on electrical properties of all the composites were discussed. The results show that the non-periodic composites have larger dielectric factor and piezoelectric strain constant than those of the periodic composite. The impedance-frequency spectra analysis indicates that the non-periodic arrangement of ceramic rods can effectively restrict the lateral structural mode of the composite, accordingly reduces the coupling resonant between the thickness resonant mode and lateral resonant mode. The thickness electromechanical coupling coefficient of non-periodic composites is larger than that of the periodic composite. With increasing the non-periodic level of P(MN)ZT ceramic in the composites, the mechanical quality factor of the composites increases gradually. Therefore, 1-3 type cement based piezoelectric composites with different special abilities can be obtained by varying the periodic arrangement of P(MN)ZT ceramic rods in the composites.
