Broad-band dielectric spectroscopy of tetragonal PLZTx/40/60

Abstract: The dielectric behaviour of tetragonal PLZT x/40/60 ceramics doped with lanthanum (x ¼ 5, 12 and 15%) has been investigated at 100-10 14 Hz. Dielectric, THz and infrared spectra were measured from 500 to 20 K. For x ! 12 relaxor ferroelectric behaviour was observed. All three samples showed an additional relaxational mode below phonons. Analysis of the phonon modes for ferroelectric PLZT 5/40/60 is presented together with the complete dielectric behaviour.

“…ΔTEC is close to the 3.45 K observed in PMN-10PT, but at a much higher electric field of 140 kV/cm [36]. We argue that such ECE enhancement for relatively modest electric fields is most likely due to the latent heat of the first order P-FE transition in 12/40/60 PLZT ceramics [45,47]. Much sharper rise of the ΔTEC near the FE transition than in 8/65/35 PLZT ceramics is signaling that the ΔTEC is enhanced by the latent heat up to L/cph  0.7 K. Here, the latent heat (L) of the FE transition in 12/40/60 PLZT ceramics, is estimated from calorimetric measurements to L250 J/kg [47].…”

Typical latent heat values of 60 J/kg to 400 J/kg, such as observed in Lead Magnesium Niobate (PMN) and Barium Titanate (BTO), respectively, can enhance the ECE for 0.2 to 1 K [15,29].…”

“…The temperature dependences of the IR spectra of PLZT x/40/60 were published in [13,14]. There we used a generalized four-parameter oscillator model to fit the spectra and obtained the effective dielectric function ε eff (ω).…”

“…The lattice dynamics of ferroelectric PLZT 5/40/60 had already been studied by us using IR and dielectric spectroscopy [13]. It was shown that the dielectric behaviour of this sample, considered as a normal ferroelectric (with T C = 584 K), is governed by a soft mode in the THz range and a lower-frequency excitation related to polar microdomains appearing on lowering the temperature.…”

“…[ 15 ] Similarly, a small phase transition enthalpy of 0.19 J g −1 was found in the Pb 0.85 La 0.15 Zr 0.4 Ti 0.6 O 3 ceramic with a Curie temperature of 26 °C. [ 16 ] Therefore, it is difficult to simultaneously obtain a large phase transition enthalpy as well as a T C near room temperature in simple ABO 3 perovskite materials.…”
