Abstract

High-performance 0.7Bi1.02FeO3–0.3BaTiO3 ceramics are prepared by traditional solid-state method with annealing. The effect of annealing temperature (TA) on the piezoelectric properties of ceramics are revealed by studying the crystal structures, ferroelectric properties, and electrical properties of the as-sintered ceramic and ceramics annealed at 600, 700, 800, and 900 °C. Through the analysis, we found that TA has little influence on the morphology and crystal structure of ceramics, all ceramics are two-phase (R-PC) coexistence structures. But TA relates to the concentration of charge defects. When annealing at 800 °C, the charge defects in the ceramic are the least. Therefore the best performance (d33 = 202 \(\pm\) 3 pC/N, TC = 496 °C) ceramic is obtained. Our experiments demonstrate that the charge defects induced by annealing temperature are very important to the piezoelectricity of BFO–BTO ceramics.
