X-ray powder diffraction phase analysis and thermomechanical properties of silica and alumina porcelains
2004
Chemical and mineralogical characterization, using the Rietveld method, of some silica and alumina rich porcelains and its relationship with thermomechanical properties have been studied in this work. X-ray powder diffraction analysis allows to differ clearly between silica and alumina porcelains. X-ray study shows that both porcelains have a content of vitreous phase. This vitreous phase is higher in the silica than in the alumina porcelain. Dilatometric studies combined with powder diffraction methods shows a strong relationship between silica content and a lower expansion coefficients and between alumina content and a higher crash resistance. Lower contents in vitreous phase in porcelain…
Dielectric properties and ac conductivities of Bi1−xSmxFeO3 ceramics
2019
Dielectric permittivity, dielectric losses and ac-conductivity of polycrystalline Bi1−xSmxFeO3 (x = 0; 0.05; 0.1; 0.15; 0.2) are measured in the frequency range 1 kHz–10 MHz and in the temperature range 25–600 °C. Anomalies have been observed at the 200 °C, 300 °C and at the Néel temperature. It has been demonstrated that doping with Sm has enhanced the dielectric properties and increased conduction in the frequency region 1 MHz) and at a certain temperature Tm, depending on the composition Bi1−xSmxFeO3, the conductivity reaches a maximum. The results are discussed with reference to the model of correlated barrier hopping.
Dielectric Properties of the 0.05PZN–0.95PSN Ferroelectric Ceramics at Low and Infra-Low Frequencies
2005
Manifestations of relaxor properties similar to those observed in lead magnesium niobates are reported in the 0.05PZN–0.95PSN ceramic solid solution system. Behaviour of the effective dielectric permittivity and dielectric loss with temperature at frequencies between 0.1 and 10 Hz at different field amplitudes are examined in ceramic samples of 0.05PZN–0.95PSN. The temperature T m of the dielectric permittivity maximum is observed to decrease with the increase of the measuring field amplitude E o . Dependence of T m on frequency at strong and weak fields is observed to follow the Fogel-Fulcher law, and the Fogel-Fulcher temperature is found to decrease with the increase of E o . Results of …
Dependence of dielectric permittivity on bias field in Pb1−xBaxSc0.5Nb0.5O3
2001
Abstract Bias field effect on the dielectric permittivity is studied in Badoped lead scandium niobate ferroelectric ceramics (PBSN-x) prepared by conventional technology. Results of this work allow to analyse the mechanism of possible formation and motion of domain and/or phase boundaries in the explored ferroelectric ceramics.
Bias Field Effect on Dielectric Response in the Region of Phase Transitions in (Pb,La)(Zr,Sn,Ti)O3Ceramics
2007
The dielectric response of (Pb 0.97 La 0.02 ) (Zr 0.53 Ti 0.12 Sn 0.35 )O 3 (PLZTS-2/53/12/35) ceramics was measured as a function of DC bias field E =. As the bias field intensity increases the values of ϵ′ max and ϵ” max are found to shift towards a lower temperature. A possible coexistence of the ferroelectric and antiferroelectric phases over a wide range of temperatures in the PLZTS-2/53/12/35 samples is assumed to explain the observed features of ϵ′ (T), ϵ” (T), and ϵ′ (E=) curves.
Low frequency nonlinearity in layered ferroelectrics BaBi<inf>2</inf>Nb<inf>2</inf>O<inf>9</inf> and SrBi<inf&…
2010
The dielectric nonlinearity in layered ferroelectric ceramics of BaBi 2 Nb 2 O 9 and SrBi 2 Ta 2 O 9 is studied by analysing polarisation loops and measuring dielectric permittivity as a function of frequency. In case of BaBi 2 Nb 2 O 9 the system has a broad phase transition manifesting essential features of a slow relaxation of polarisation; in case of SrBi 2 Ta 2 O 9 the processes contributing to polarisation switching are driven by rearrangement of the domain structure.
Structure and dielectric properties of Na<inf>1/2</inf>Bi<inf>1/2</inf>TiO<inf>3</inf>-BaTiO<inf>3</inf&…
2012
Dielectric properties, polarization and x-ray diffraction are studied for (1−x)Na 1/2 Bi 1/2 TiO 3 -xBaTiO 3 solid solutions in a concentration range above the morphotropic phase boundary. It is showed that all the studied compositions have tetragonal structure with maximal tetragonality slightly above the morphotropic phase boundary. Ferroelectric relaxor behavior is observed in a wide concentration range of BaTiO 3 . Stability of the relaxor state decreases with increasing BaTiO 3 concentration, but only for compositions with low Na 1/2 Bi 1/2 TiO 3 content the normal ferroelectric-paraelectric phase transition, which is characteristic to pure BaTiO 3 , occurs. Mechanisms, which influence…
Phase transitions and properties of perovskite ferroelectric ceramics and films for certain applications
1999
Abstract The structure-properties relationships and phase transitions in perovskite ceramics, and films of PLZT, PLZST, PST, PSN, PMNT compounds are discussed with regard to ordering, relaxor behaviour, pronounced ferroelectric, electromechanical and electrocaloric properties. The theoretical approach is extended to the time dependent Ginsburg-Landau model. The evolution of dielectric properties in relaxors after the change of temperature and electric field creating an increase of dielectric permittivity is found to follow a logarithmic law of decay. A strong electromechanical response is observed in a number of thin films of different compositions.
Relaxation of Polarization at the Broad Phase Transition in Modified PMN Ferroelectric Ceramics
2013
The reported study is focused on effects of relaxation of polarization within the range of the broad phase transition at strong sinusoidal measuring fields in modified lead magnesium niobate ceramics. The obtained results reveal an essential thermal broadening of the ϵ′(E) spectra specific to relaxor ferroelectrics. Temperature dependence of ϵ′ eff (T) at medium fields shows two broad maximums – at Tm and at 40°C. On the basis of analysis of the experimental data, admixture of lithium is suggested to promote formation of domains in lead magnesium niobate ceramics.
Dielectric Properties of PMN-PNN+2%Li2O Ferroelectric Ceramics at Low and Infra-Low Frequencies
2014
AbstractA study of dielectric response to weak and strong measuring fields at temperatures of the diffuse phase transition in lead-magnesium niobate—lead-nickel niobate (PMN-PNN) containing an admixture of lithium is reported. A relaxor behaviour of the ceramic compound manifesting itself by a substantial shift of the temperature of dielectric permittivity maximum with field intensity and frequency is detected. Specific features of the dielectric nonlinearity observed at temperatures considerably higher than the temperature of the low-frequency dielectric permittivity maximum are related to extension of the range of phase transition to higher temperatures. This extension is related to forma…
