Preparation and characterization of transparent PZN–PLZT ceramics

چکیده
Transparent Pb(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O3–(Pb1-xLax)(Zr1-yTiy)O3 (PZN–PLZT) ferroelectric ceramics have successfully been prepared by hot-pressed sintering in oxygen atmosphere. Uniform cylindrical samples with diameter as large as 50 mm can readily be obtained. X-ray analysis and scanning electron microscopy experiments showed a pure perovskite phase, thin grain boundaries, and uniform dense microstructures. Very good transparency was reached for wavelength from near ultraviolet to infrared. The dielectric constant was also measured as a function of temperature and frequency. Some novel phenomena such as good piezoelectric and electro-optical properties have been observed.

In order to fabrication of transparent glass-ceramics with Li-mica nano crystals, the glasses with chemical composition of 94.9 mass% Li(1+x)Mg3AlSi3(1+x)F2 (x=0.5) with 5.1 mass% MgF2 were crystallized. The glasses were fabricated via the conventional melt-quenching technique. Mica crystals were precipitated in the glass phase by later heat treatment. Glass samples had glass transition tempera...

Transparent glasses in a system of Li2O-MgO-SiO2-Al2O3-Fchemical constituents were prepared by melt quenching method. In the fabrication of nanocrystal glass-ceramics, controlled nucleation and subsequent crystal growth were necessary to avoid loss of transparency. It was therefore important to understand thermal properties and crystallization kinetic...
متن کاملLow-temperature sintering of MnO2-doped PZT–PZN Piezoelectric ceramics
The effect of MnO2 addition on the microstructural evolution and piezoelectric properties of low temperature sinterable PZT–PZN ceramics was investigated. When a small amount of MnO2 (≤0.5 wt% ) was added, the Mn ions were homogeneously dissolved in the PZT– PZN ceramics, leading to full densification at a temperature as low as 930 °C. However, the further addition of MnO2 hindered the densific...
