Abstract
NaNbO3-based lead-free ceramics show great potential in energy storage and piezoelectric applications due to the antiferroelectric and ferroelectric features. However, pure NaNbO3 usually shows lossy hysteresis loops because of the metastable antiferroelectric phase at room temperature. In this work, Bi(Zn2/3Nb1/3)O3 was introduced into NaNbO3 to modulate the phase structure, dielectric, and energy storage properties. The addition of Bi(Zn2/3Nb1/3)O3 changed the phase structure from orthorhombic to pseudo-cubic, decreased the grain size from ~ 20 μm to ~ 1 μm, shifted the temperature of dielectric peak from 360℃ to room temperature, and led to much-reduced polarization hysteresis and improved breakdown strength. With the addition of 9 mol% Bi(Zn2/3Nb1/3)O3, the maximum recoverable energy density of 3.3 J/cm3 was achieved under 33.5 kV/mm. These results provide a feasible route to design and fabricate new NaNbO3-based energy storage ceramics.
