Abstract
Bismuth sodium–barium titanate (BNT-BT)-based ceramics with multi-phase coexistence exhibit promising piezoelectricity, while the enhancement mechanism of phase transition on the piezoelectricity is worthy of further study. Here, we developed a new composition of (Bi0.5Na0.5)0.94Ba0.06Ti1-x(Nb0.5Lu0.5)xO3 (named as BNTBT-xNL) by introducing (Nb0.5Lu0.5)4+ complex ions to reduce the driving field from P4bm to R3c. A large electro-strain of 0.48% (piezoelectric stain coefficient d33* = 686 pm/V) is obtained in x = 0.15 ceramics. With further studying the properties between poled and unpoled x = 0.15 ceramics, both the intrinsic and extrinsic contribution increased together with the coexistence of R3c and P4bm phase, which are responsible for exploring the origin of the excellent piezoelectric properties of BNT-NL ceramics. In this work, (Nb0.5Lu0.5)4+ complex ions are used to lower phase transition energy barriers and enhance the piezoelectric characteristics of BNT-based ceramics. Rayleigh analysis provides an effective way to quantify the impact of intrinsic and extrinsic contributions on the piezoelectric properties of ceramics.
