Influence of CeO2 doping amount on the piezoelectric properties, dielectric properties, phase composition and microstructure of prepared BCTZ lead-free piezoelectric ceramics doped with Li2CO3 were investigated by X-ray diffraction （XRD） and scanning electron microscopy （SEM） and other analytical methods. The results showed that the sintered temperature of BCTZ lead-free piezoelectric ceramics doped with CeO2 decreased greatly when Li2CO3 doping amount was 0.6 wt.%;a pure perovskite structure of BCTZ lead-free piezoelectric ceramics co-doped with Li2CO3 and CeO2 and sintered at 1050 ℃ could also be obtained. The piezoelectric constant （d33）, the relative permit-tivity （εr） and the planar electromechanical coupling factor （kp） of BCTZ ceramics doped with Li2CO3 increased firstly and then de-creased, the dielectric loss （tanδ） decreased firstly and then increased and decreased at last when CeO2 doping amount increased. The influence of CeO2 doping on the properties of BCTZ lead-free piezoelectric ceramics doped with Li2CO3 were caused by“soft effect”and “hard effect”piezoelectric additive and causing lattice distortion. When CeO2 doping amount （x） was 0.2 wt.%, the BCTZ ceramics doped with Li2CO3 （0.6 wt.%） and sintered at 1050 ℃ possessed the best piezoelectric property and dielectric property with d33 of 436 pC/N, kp of 48.3%,εr of 3650, tanδof 1.5%.展开更多

In addition, the oxygen vacancy in N-doped PbTiO3 is also discussed. After the nitrogen dopant is introduced into the crystal, the N-doped PbTiO3 system is spin-polarized, the spin-down valance bands move to a high energy level and the Fermi energy level moves to the top of the valance bands, finally the band gap is narrowed. In this process, the N-doped PbTiO3 shows typical p-type semiconductor characteristics. When an oxygen vacancy and N impurity coexist in PbTiO3, there is no spin-polarized phenomenon. The conduction bands move downward and the acceptors are found to be fully compensated. The calculation results are mostly consistent with the experimental data.展开更多

The room temperature XRD study suggests that all the samples have the single phase cubic symmetry with space group pm 3 m. The pellets were sintered at 1500°C for 4 hrs. Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) observations revealed enhanced micro structural uniformity and retarded grain growth with decreasing Sn content. The dielectric measurements at constant frequency show that dielectric constant increases with Sn content. Loss factor and dielectric constant decreased with increasing frequency but at very high frequencies it was independent.展开更多
