  • Relaxor characteristic and phase evolution of complex perovskite barium titanate bismuth zinc titanate ceramics

    Creator:
    Triamnak, Narit
    Abstract:
    Relaxor characteristic of the solid solution (1-x)BaTiO₃-(x)Bi(Zn₁/₂Ti₁/₂)O₃ (BTBZT) was investigated in this research. X-ray diffraction technique and Raman spectroscopy revealed the crystal structure of BT-BZT at various compositions. For compositions with x ≤ 0.08, the solid solutions exhibited clear tetragonal symmetry and transitioned to pseudo-cubic symmetry as the content of...

  • Understanding of Ferroelectric to Relaxor Phenomenon in Bismuth-based Perovskite

    Creator:
    Gupta, Sanu K.
    Abstract:
    It has been well established that ferroelectric to relaxor crossover in piezoelectric ceramics exhibit promising electromechanical and dielectric properties over a wide temperature range, applying sensors and actuators transducers and such. A plethora of research has reported giant strain in various lead-free piezoelectric ceramics and attributed the reasoning to the...

  • Designing Dielectric Materials through Complex Metal Oxides

    Creator:
    Nikkel, Jason W.
    Abstract:
    This dissertation demonstrated that the electrical properties of complex oxide-based perovskite materials could be controlled through the careful modification of both material composition and structure. This was first shown through the modification of lead zirconate titanate (Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3, PZT) solid solutions with bismuth indate (BiInO3, BI) where the relative stability of...
