Abstract: High <001>-textured Na1/2Bi1/2TiO3-BaTiO3 (6mol%BaTiO3) ceramics were fabricated by reactive-templated grain growth (RTGG), using plate-like Bi4Ti3O14 particles prepared by a molten salt method as the templates. The effect of template concentration on the texture development and microstructure evolution was studied, and the mechanisms of grain orientation and densification were also discussed. The design of Bi element reaction has important impact on the texture development.

Abstract: Lead-free Na1/2Bi1/2TiO3-6BaTiO3 (BNT-6BT) ceramics with different dopants were prepared by a conventional ceramic fabrication technique. The influence of doping CeO2, La2O3, Nb2O5 and Co2O3 on the structure was studied, and the mechanism of soft and hard additives with A-site or B-site substitute changing the piezoelectric properties was discussed. It was found that the rhombohedral-tetragonal morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) of the Na1/2Bi1/2TiO3-6BaTiO3 was not changed obviously.
