Broadband dielectric spectroscopy of PbMg1/3Nb2/3O3–PbSc1/2Nb1/2O3 ceramics

2010

Abstract Broadband dielectric spectroscopy results of various ordered and disordered (1 − x)Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3–(x)Pb(Sc1/2Nb1/2)O3 (PMN–PSN) ceramics are investigated in the temperature range from 80 K to 300 K and frequency range from 20 Hz to 2 THz. Dielectric dispersion is very broad and in the ferroelectrics case (x = 1, 0.95) consists of two parts: low-frequency part caused by ferroelectric domains and higher frequency part caused by soft mode. The relaxational soft mode exhibits pronounced softening close to phase transition temperature, as it is typical for order–disorder phase transitions. By substituting Sc3+ by Mg2+ in PMN–PSN ceramics relaxation slows down, and for relaxors (x = 0.…
