| Abstract: | A-site deficient rare-earth (Nd, Gd, and Y) doped (Ba 0.99 Ca 0.01 )(Zr 0.2 Ti 0.8 )O 3 ceramics (noted BCTZ) were obtained by the conventional solid-state reaction method. X-ray powder diffraction experiments combined with first-order Raman scattering analysis were performed to provide detailed description of the structures with different ferroelectric/non-ferroelectric phases. Raman spectra investigations give evidence of compositional disorder as well as a significant change of polar order with the incorporation of rare-earth ions on the A-site of BCTZ lattice. The dielectric and ferroelectric properties of the (Ba 1-x Ln 2x/3 ) 0.99 Ca 0.01 )(Zr 0.2 Ti 0.8 )O 3 ceramics (x = 0 and x = 0.015, Ln = Nd, Gd and Y) were thoroughly investigated as a function of frequency and temperature. This work highlights and demonstrates that the diffuseness of the phase transition increases and that the relaxor behavior is intensifies with rare-earth substitution. Moreover, the transition temperature is remarkably shifted to lower temperature for doped BCTZ ceramics. In the low temperature region, slim ferroelectric hysteresis loops with a low coercive field were observed for all compositions emphasizing their soft character. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
