Inorganic Materials Aims and scope

Abstract

Detailed data are presented on the structure and electrical properties of Na1 – x Li x NbO3 (0 ≤x ≤ 0.145), Na1 – x K x NbO3 (0 ≤ x ≤ 1.0), and (Na1 – x Pb x )(Nb1 – x Ti x )O3 (0 ≤ x ≤ 1.0) solid solutions prepared by solid-state reactions followed by hot pressing. The sequences of phase changes and the stability ranges of the resulting phases are identified. The results are used to map out the compositional phase diagrams of the NaNbO3-based binary systems.
