Abstract

The microstructural (XRD and SEM) and dielectric behavior of Pb(Zr0.54Ti0.46)O3 (PZT 54/46) ceramic system with donor (La, Nb and La+Nb) doping was studied. For all Nb-doped PZT samples, only one (tetragonal) phase was found, which confirms the compositional shifts near the morphotropic phase boundary. For La- and La+Nb-doped samples, there are two (rhombohedral and tetragonal) phases. Dielectric characteristic behavior (1/ε) for La- and La+Nb-doped PZT was associated with two-phase transitions: Ferro–Ferro at low temperature and Ferro–Para at Curie temperature. For Nb-doped samples, only one phase transition is observed, which indicates the presence of a single ferroelectric phase.
