Effect of Sintering Temperature on Microstructure and Electrical Properties of (Mn, Nb)-Doped BZT-BCT Ceramics

Abstract:

To obtain lead-free 0.5Ba (Zr_0.2Ti_0.8)O₃-0.5(Ba_0.7Ca_0.3)TiO₃ ceramics with excellent microstructure and electrical properties, BZT-BCT ceramics doping Mn⁴⁺and Nb⁵⁺ was synthesized follow a conventional solid state reaction route. By means of SEM, XRD, quasi-static d₃₃ meter, the influence of sintering temperature on microstructure, piezoelectric and dielectric properties of BZT-BCT-Mn-Nb ceramics was discussed. The results show that grain size and the dielectric loss of BZT-BCT-Mn-Nb ceramics increase as raising the sintering temperature. When BZT-BCT-Mn-Nb ceramics is sintered at 1380°C, the optimum piezoelectric coefficient and dielectric constant are 264pC/N and 4142, respectively.
