The field-induced ferroelectric phase of sodium niobate

Dielectric and piezoelectric properties of sodium lithium niobate Na1−xLixNbO3 lead free ferroelectric ceramics

High density sodium lithium niobate lead free ceramics near the morphtropic phase boundary [NaxLi1−xNbO3, (LNN), x=0.12] were prepared by the solid state reaction method. XRD patterns showed that the lattice structures were changed after polarization. The temperature dependence of the dielectric constant and dielectric loss, pyroelectric coefficient and DSC curves of LNN ceramics showed that th...

The effect of titanium dioxide and molybdenum oxide on the properties of sodium potassium niobate piezoceramic

Sodium potassium niobate piezoceramics are considered as lead-free piezoelectric due to their good properties. In this study, the effect of titanium dioxide and molybdenum oxide as dopant on the densification behavior, piezoelectric and dielectric properties of lithium doped sodium potassium niobate ((K0.5Na0.5)0.94Li0.06NbO3, KNNL) was investigated. For this purpose, (K0.5Na0.5)0.94Li0.06Nb0.9...

The Ferroelectric Domain Structures Induced by Electron Beam Scanning in Lithium Niobate

Ferroelectric domain structure has been formed under the action of electron beam scanning in congruent lithium niobate single crystal covered by surface dielectric layer. The obtained types of the domain patterns have been considered as subsequent stages of domain structure evolution. The dependence on irradiated charge density of domain density, length, and period of domain rays and stripe dom...

THE ELECTRIC FIELD-INDUCED ANTIFERROELECTRIC TO FERROELECTRIC PHASE TRANSITION IN SOME (Pb,La) Zr0.55Ti0.4503 CERAMICS

Lanthanum substituted lead zirconate-titanate (PLZT) ceramics of composition 11.1/55/45 have been studied by measuring high electric field properties. Dc bias, dielectric and P-E hysteresis loop measurements have been employed to construct an E (electric field) versus T (temperature) phase diagram. At lower temperatures and small electric fields an antiferroelectric phase with tetragonal symmet...
