Abstract

Lead-free ceramics based on bismuth sodium titanate (Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3, BNT)–barium titanate (BaTiO3,BT) have been prepared by solid state reaction process. The (1−x)BNT–(x)BT (x = 0.01,0.03,0.05,0.07) ceramics were sintered at 1,150 °C for 4 h in air, show a pure perovskite structure. X-ray diffraction analysis indicates that a solid solution is formed in (1−x)BNT–(x)BT ceramics with presence of a morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) between rhombohedral and tetragonal at x = 0.07. Raman spectroscopy shows the splitting of (TO3) mode at x = 0.07 confirming the presence of MPB region. The temperature dependence dielectric study shows a diffuse phase transition with gradual decrease in phase transition temperature (Tm). The dielectric constant and diffusivity increases with increase in BT content and is maximum at the MPB region. With the increase in BT content the maximum breakdown field increases, accordingly the coercive field (Ec) and remnant polarization (Pr) increases. The piezoelectric constant of (1 − x)BNT–(x)BT ceramics increases with increase in BT content and maximum at x = 0.07, which is the MPB region. The BNT–BT system is expected to be a new and promising candidate for lead-free dielectric and piezoelectric material.
