Abstract:

The gallium and indium double-modified bismuth scandate-lead titanate (1-x)Bi (In0.20Ga0.05Sc0.75)O3-xPbTiO3 ((1-x)BIGS-xPT, x=0.55-0.70) ceramics were prepared by using conventional ceramic technique. (1-x)BIGS-xPT ceramics for near x=0.60 exhibits an evident enhancement in room temperature dielectric and piezoelectric properties, with dielectric constant ε, piezoelectric constant d33, planar electromechanical coupling coefficient kp and Curie temperature TC of 1100, 295 pC/N, 0.43 and 435 °C, respectively. The TC of (1-x)BIGS-xPT is in the range of 425-530 °C for the compositions investigated. The combination of high TC and excellent piezoelectric activity suggest that the (1-x)BIGS-xPT ceramics are usable candidate materials for high temperature piezoelectric devices applications.
