KNN-BF piezoelectric ceramics synthesized by sol-gel method in this experiment. By controlling bismuth and iron content in the system to study effects of them. We selected citric acid as metal chelator and ethylene glycol as esterification agent. PH maintained 5-6 during preparation of the sol. Sintering temperature of ceramic selected 1100°C. Preparation ceramics under these conditions and comparative analysis, the structure of ceramics is single perovskite and shap of crystals are square block. With the increase of x, properties of ceramics firstly increases and then decreases: d33, εr, Qm, Kpreaching the maximum, values of them were 136pC/N, 630(f =1KHz), 212, 0.41 respectively; dielectric loss to minimum is 0.07(f =1KHz); at this point, ceramics had best performance.

Indonesia is located along the equator lines with the high intensity of solar radiation averaging about 4.5 kWh of electrical energy/day. This potential leads to the selfsustaining energy possibility fulfilling the electricity needs. Due to their unique electronic structures and high-cost merit over the existing commercial PV technologies, perovskite solar cells (PSCs) have emerged as the next-generation photovoltaic candidate. Their highest power efficiency can be achieved of up to 22.1% in the last 5-6 years. However, this high efficiency came from CH3NH3PbI3 materials which contain lead, a toxic material. Herein calcium titanate (CT) as a lead-free perovskite material were synthesized through sintering of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) and titanium oxide (TiO2) by the sol-gel method. CT powders were characterized by SEM, XRF, FTIR and XRD then applied it onto the mesoporous heterojunction PSCs, with a device architecture ITO/TiO2/CaTiO3/C/ITO. By manipulating the raw material stoichiometry and heating temperature in the synthesis of CaTiO3, the device shows the highest power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 2.12%, shortcircuit current density (JSC) of 0.027 mA cm-2, open circuit voltage (VOC) of 0.212 V and fill factor (FF) of 53.90%. This sample can be an alternative way to create lead-free, largescale, and low-cost perovskite solar cells.

The challenge to develop high piezoelectric sensitivity and lead-free composition ferro-piezoelectric ceramics has recently dragged new attention to some classic ferroelectrics. Here, Ba(CexTi1-x)O3 (Ce-BT) and 0.94(Bi1/2Na1/2)TiO3-0.06BaTiO3 (BNBT6) ceramics were piezoelectrically characterized from measurements of complex impedance at electromechanical resonances and their analysis by Alemany et al. software. The reconstruction of the spectra for each resonance is used as an accuracy test of the set of calculated coefficients, quantitatively characterized by the regression factor (R2) of such reconstruction to the experimental spectrum. Piezoelectric activity at room temperature (RT) was observed for Ce-BT with x=0.06 and 0.1, ferroelectrics with T(?'max)>RT, but also for x=0.2 with T(?'max)<RT, which confirms its relaxor character (Ps?0 for T?T(?'max)). BNBT6 fine grained ceramics (~1 ?m) were prepared from nanopowder obtained by sol-gel autocombustion. Results obtained for the fine grained ceramic hot-pressed at 800?C for 2 h and recrystallized at 1050?C for 1 h are d33=148 pCN-1 and kp=26.8%. Despite of its lower grain size, the properties of this material are comparable with those reported for coarse grained ceramics obtained by sintering at T>1100?C. Some measurement issues, as the role of the mode coupling on the characterization results, illustrated for the shear mode of a thickness poled plate, are discussed.

Lead free Multiferroic composites that comprise Co0.6Zn0.4Fe1.7Mn0.3O4 (CZFMO) and 72.5(Bi1/2Na1/2TiO3)-22.5(Bi1/2K1/2TiO3)-5(BiMg1/2Ti1/2O3) (BNT-BNT-BMgT) were synthesized using sol-gel method and it’s structural, ferroelectric and magnetic properties were studied. The X-ray diffraction displayed the single phase formation of parent phases and the presence of two phases in the composites. The samples showed a well saturated polarization-electric field hysteresis loops. The remnant polarization and saturation polarization values are decreased with increasing ferrite content. Room temperature (RT) magnetic measurements show that composites are soft magnetic. The composite with x = 0.2, showed the enhanced magnetic and ferroelectric properties. Moreover, these ME composites provide a great opportunity as potential lead free systems for multifuntional device applications.
