Effect of Barium Titanate Additives on Dielectric Property of PLZT Ceramics

Article Preview

Abstract:

Barium titanate (BT) additive in lanthanum modified lead zirconate titanate (PLZT) was used to modify the microstructure and resultant properties of (1-x) PLZT– x BT where x= 0, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15, 0.20 and 0.25. Oxide powders were synthesized by mixed oxide synthetic route via a rapid vibro-milling technique. All of samples were sintered at 1275°C with the soaking time of 4 h. The ceramic samples were investigated for phase formation and evolution, dielectric behavior and ferroelectric properties. Introduction of BT in PLZT lattice resulted in ferroelectric tetragonal-rhombohedral structure, and further increase of BT content resulted in stabilizing the ferroelectric tetragonal perovskite phase. Dielectric behavior and ferroelectric properties were examined as a function of BT content.
