Abstract

This research article deliberates the structural, electrical and leakage current characteristics of strontium stannate- selenites, (Sr(Sn,Se)O3) modified bismuth potassium titanate (Bi0.5K0.5TiO3) compound of chemical compositions (1-2x) (Bi0.5K0.5)TiO3-x (SrSnO3)-x (SrSeO3) (x = 0, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15). The compounds have been synthesized through a solid-state reaction process with calcination temperature = 1000 °C and sintering temperature = 1050 °C for 5 h each. The room temperature XRD spectrum indicates the development of single-phase ceramics with tetragonal symmetry. Detailed investigations of the electrical characteristics as a function of frequency (1 kHz to 1 MHz) and temperature (25–500 °C) are obtained using the programmable phase-sensitive meter. The leakage current (J–E) properties of the materials have shown a very small amount of leakage current density with the existence of an Ohmic conduction mechanism. The room temperature polarization study through the hysteresis loops confirms the ferroelectric properties of the studied materials. The remarkable experimental results obtained here suggest the usefulness of the prepared materials in various electronic devices.
