Flux growth and low temperature dielectric relaxation in piezoelectric Pb[(Zn1/3Nb2/3)0.91Ti0.09]O3 single crystals

Abstract: Single crystals of Pb[(Zn1/3Nb2/3)0.91Ti0.09]O3 (PZNT 91/9) have been grown by flux method after modifications in temperature profile, flux ratio and addition of excess ZnO/B2O3 which resulted in enhanced perovskite yield (more than 95%). Only a few crystals showed the presence of pyrochlore phase/variation in composition. A comparative characterization of these crystals were carried out in respect of piezoelectric charge coefficient d33, dielectric constant, ac conductivity and hysteresis loop after cutting a… Show more

“…The XRD profile of (200) reflection at 2θ = 44.5° clearly indicates the rhombohedral splitting for x=0.09 composition which confirms the coexistence of the rhombohedral and the tetragonal phases near MPB [13,14].
