description

The effects of bias fields E= on dielectric response of xPbZn1/3Nb2/3O3-(1 − x)PbSc1/2 Nb1/2O3 ferroelectric solid solutions of x = 0, 0.05, 0.2, and 0.5 studied at temperatures of diffused phase transitions are reported. The thermal interval of the existence of a relaxor phase in the system is found to shrink with the concentration of PbZn1/3Nb2/3O3. The change of the ratio of zinc-lead and scandium-lead niobate components is deduced to change the features of the transition to polarised state from first-order to second-order transition.
