  • Development of Temperature Stable Dielectric Materials Based on Lead Bismuth Perovskite Solid Solutions

    Creator:
    Colton, Zachary D.
    Abstract:
    High energy density ceramic capacitors with temperature stable permittivity across -150°C to 300°C are desired for a wide variety of electronic devices. Traditional dielectrics such as barium titanate provide a high permittivity but that permittivity is strongly temperature dependent over this specified temperature range. The goal of this work is...

  • Development of complex perovskite dielectric ceramics for high temperature capacitor applications

    Creator:
    Raengthon, Natthaphon
    Abstract:
    Dielectric ceramics designed for capacitor applications for use in extreme environments, such as high temperatures, high voltages, or high-pressure environments, are in great demand. Existing capacitor technology fails to perform within these extreme conditions or such environments. The development of new dielectric ceramic materials for high temperature capacitor applications is...

  • 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...

  • Development of new high-temperature piezoelectric perovskite ceramics

    Creator:
    Ansell, Troy Youngmin
    Abstract:
    Lead zirconate titanate (PZT) is the dominant ferroelectric material in the market due to its excellent piezoelectric properties, relatively high Curie transition temperature (T[subscript C]), low cost, etc. However, because of emerging applications with requirements for high temperature (T[subscript C] > 400 °C) ferroelectrics, researchers are increasingly looking at alternative...

  • Defect Mechanisms in Bismuth-based Perovskites

    Creator:
    Kumar, Nitish
    Abstract:
    The aim of this research is to develop a fundamental understanding of the dominant defect species and the relevant defect equilibrium conditions for bismuth-containing perovskites to help guide the development of these materials for emerging applications. This is of paramount importance for many demanding applications, because ultimately the defect equilibria...

  • Development of Temperature-Stable Relaxor Dielectrics for High Energy Density Capacitor Applications

    Creator:
    McCue, Connor
    Abstract:
    High performance dielectric materials are needed for high power SiC- or GaN-based electronics which combine the best features of high energy density, low dielectric loss and high reliability and for advanced high-speed and high-voltage energy storage where temperature stability plays an important role in material properties. An ideal capacitor for...

  • Effects of doping, cation stoichiometry, and the processing conditions on the dielectric properties of high-K CaCu₃Ti₄O₁₂ ceramics

    Creator:
    Kwon, Seunghwa
    Abstract:
    Since its discovery, the anomalous dielectric behavior of CaCu₃Ti₄O₁₂ (CCTO) has drawn a great deal of attention for many possible applications in electronic devices. The origin of the giant dielectric constant in CCTO was explained via an internal barrier layer capacitor model, and it has been reported that the dielectric...

  • Dielectric Properties of Perovskite Ceramics Based on BaTiO3 and Bi(Mg1/2Ti1/2)O3

    Creator:
    Sundahl, Christopher S.
    Abstract:
    The properties of (1-x)BaTiO3-xBi(Mg1/2Ti1/2)O3 (BT-BMT) ceramics were fabricated from reagent-grade ceramic powders by solid-state methods and investigated for solubility, relative permittivity, dielectric loss, polarization, and electromechanical strain. The solubility limit was found to be between x = 0.3 and 0.4. Ba-deficient samples were fabricated, corresponding to stable single-phase compositions; these...

  • Development, characterization, and piezoelectric fatigue behavior of lead-free perovskite piezoelectric ceramics

    Creator:
    Patterson, Eric Andrew
    Abstract:
    Much recent research has focused on the development lead-free perovskite piezoelectrics as environmentally compatible alternatives to lead zirconate titanate (PZT). Two main categories of lead free perovskite piezoelectric ceramic systems were investigated as potential replacements to lead zirconate titanate (PZT) for actuator devices. First, solid solutions based on Li, Ta,...

    Creator:
    Trobough, Nathaniel D.
    Abstract:
    This thesis examines the dielectric properties of two systems based on the perovskite materials barium titanate and strontium titanate. A solid solution was created starting with these base materials and then adding varying amounts of bismuth-zinc titanate and sodium niobate. These compositions were calcined and sintered at temperatures determined to...
