Distribution of relaxation times in 0.5PMN-0.5PSN ceramics
Dielectric properties of chemically ordered and disordered 0.5PbMg1/3Nb2/3O3-0.5 PbSc1/2Nb1/2O3 (0.5PMN-0.5PSN) ceramics were investigated in frequency range from 20 Hz to 3 GHz by dielectric spectroscopy. The broad dielectric dispersion, similar to this typically obtained for relaxor ferroelectrics (RFE), was observed in both ceramics below 350 K. The frequency dependence of dielectric permittivity of these ceramics were analyzed in terms of the distribution of relaxation times and showed the splitting into two components at lower temperatures. The longest relaxation times part slows down following Vogel-Fulcher law with lower freezing temperature compare with typical RFE like PbMg1/3Nb2/3…
Radio and Microwave Spectroscopy of 0.2PMN-0.4PSN-0.4PZN Relaxor Ceramics
Dielectric spectroscopy results of 0.2PbMg 1/3 Nb 2/3 O 3 -0.4PbSc 1/2 Nb 1/2 O 3 -0.4PbZn 1/3 Nb 2/3 O 3 ceramics are reported for 200 < T < 450 K and 20 Hz < v < 11 GHz. Dielectric constant is very high (more than 12000) in the vicinity of the peak. Anomalous broad dielectric relaxation has been observed near and below the temperature of the maximum permittivity, T m (at 1 kHz). The distribution of relaxation times have been calculated directly from the dielectric spectra. At higher temperatures than the maximum permittivity, T m the distribution of the relaxation times is symmetrically shaped (Cole-Cole function satisfactory describes the dielectric response). At lower temperatures, the …
Dynamics of Phase Transition in 0.4NBT-0.4ST-0.2PT Solid Solution
In this paper we present dielectric spectroscopy results of NBT-(0.6-x)ST-xPT with x = 0.2 solid solution. Dielectric investigations clearly showed a relaxor—normal ferroelectric phase transition at TPT = 419 K and low temperature and low frequency dispersion similar to coexistence of dipolar glass and ferroelectric phase. The mean relaxation time above the phase transition follows Vogel—Fulcher law with following parameters: E A = 0.179 eV, τ 0 = 3.39·10−14 s, T VF = 223 K.
Broad Distribution of Relaxation Times in 0.6PMN-0.4PZN Relaxor Ceramics
In this paper dielectric spectra of 0.6PMN-0.4PZN ceramic obtained from broadband dielectric spectroscopy is presented. Measurements revealed an unusual relaxor like nature. Two different processes in the dielectric spectra have been observed. High frequency, or short relaxation times, behaviour is typical for ferroelectric crystals. Longest relaxation times do not follow Vogel—Fulcher dependence, which is unusual for relaxors.
Distribution of the relaxation times of the new relaxor 0.4PSN–0.3PMN–0.3PZN ceramics
Abstract The real distribution function of the relaxation times g ( τ ) of the relaxor ferroelectric ceramics 0.4PSN–0.3PMN–0.3PZN is calculated from the experimental dielectric spectra obtained in the frequency range from 20 Hz to 1.25 GHz. Below the Burns temperature T B ≅ 380 K, where the clusters begin to appear on cooling, the distribution of the relaxation times is symmetrically shaped. On cooling, the permittivity and loss spectra strongly broaden and slow down. The g ( τ ) function becomes asymmetrically shaped and the second maximum appears. The width of the g ( τ ) function is calculated at different temperatures. The shortest relaxation time is of the order of 10 −12 s and it r…
Anomalous Broad Distribution of Relaxation Times in Mixed PMN-PSN Ceramics
Dielectric permittivity of 0.8PMN-0.2PSN ceramic was measured in the frequency range from 20 Hz to 3 GHz. The typical ferroelectrics relaxor dielectric dispersion was observed. From the frequency dependence of complex dielectric permittivity, the distribution of relaxation times was calculated. The low frequency limit of the distribution of relaxation times diverges according to the Vogel–Fulcher law with the freezing temperature T f = 226 K which is lower than in PMN ceramics, obtained previously. The comparison of distributions of relaxation times between 0.8PMN-0.2PSN and pure PMN tends to the conclusion about smaller polar nano regions in 0.8PMN-0.2PSN ceramic.
Broadband Dielectric Spectroscopy of PSN-Rich PMN-PSN Ceramics
The broadband dielectric permittivity of ordered 0.1PMN-0.9PSN and disordered 0.2PMN-0.8PSN ceramics was investigated. The anomaly of dielectric permittivity is clearly seen in the region of 370 K for 0.1 PMN-0.9 PSN at all frequencies. 0.2 PMN-0.8 PSN shows relaxor behaviour with huge frequency dispersion below 350 K. Calculated distribution of relaxation times shows noticeable influence of polar nano regions to the total dielectric spectrum below 320 K with the longest relaxation times edge diverging according to the Vogel-Fulcher law. In 0.1 PMN-0.9 PSN two a little overlapped peaks present in the distribution of relaxation times, influenced by displacive lead motions at high frequencies…
Anomalous Broad Dielectric Dispersion of 0.4PZN-0.3PSN-0.3PZN Relaxor Ceramics at Lower Temperatures
Dielectric properties of 0.4PbZn1/3Nb2/3O3-0.3PbSc1/2Nb1/2O3-0.3PbMg1/3Nb2/3O3- (0.4PZN- 0.3PSN-0.3PMN) ceramics are presented for 200 < T < 500 K and 20 Hz < ν < 1 MHz. Dielectric constant is very high (more 14000) in the vicinity of the peak. Anomalous broad dielectric relaxation have been observed near the temperature of the maximum permittivity, Tm (at 1 kHz). External bias field considerably lowers the value of dielectric losses at low frequencies due to decrease of polar nano regions contribution to the dielectric permittivity.
Dielectric properties of 0.4Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3–(0.6-x)SrTiO3–xPbTiO3 solid solutions
Abstract In this paper we present our measurements of the linear and nonlinear dielectric permittivity of 0.4 Na 0.5 Bi 0.5 TiO 3 – ( 0.6 - x ) SrTiO 3 – xPbTiO 3 solid solutions (x = 0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15). The dielectric anomaly increases in the system with respect to the concentration of lead, showing that interactions between dipolar entities are modified. The system exhibits dipolar-glass-like behaviour at low values of x ( 0 ⩽ x 0.1 ). Relaxor behaviour emerges in the sample where x = 0.1 . Furthermore, a spontaneous first-order phase transition from relaxor to normal ferroelectric is observed at x ⩾ 0.15 . A few peculiar dispersion regions are observed in the ferroelectric phase, which …
