Microstructure, dielectric and ferroelectric properties of (1−x)(0.94Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3–0.06BaTiO3)–xBiFeO3 lead-free ceramics synthesized via a high energy ball milling method

Improved ferroelectricity and ferromagnetism of Eu-modified BiFeO3–BaTiO3 lead-free multiferroic ceramics

“…Similar results have been reported in La-and Nd-modified BiFeO 3 -based ceramics [23,24]. To more exactly characterize the phase transition of the ceramics, the XRD peaks of ceramics at the range of 38°-40°were fitted by Peakfit software of the least-squares approach [25]. The peak shape was modeled by Lorentzian and Gaussian functions and the results are shown in Fig.…”

“…And some impurity phases (e.g. Bi 2 Fe 4 O 9 , Bi 25 FeO 39 , etc. [8,9]) are usually detected due to the narrow temperature range of phase stabilization.…”

Microstructure, dielectric and ferroelectric properties of 0.94Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3–0.06BaTiO3 (NBTB) and 0.05BiFeO3–0.95NBTB ceramics: Effect of sintering atmosphere

“…In order to characterize the phase compositions in a more quantitative way, the XRD peaks between 45.0 • and 47.5 • were fitted by Peakfit software using the least-square approach [20]. The XRD fitting patterns are shown in Fig.…”

“…Bismuth ferrite (BiFeO 3 ) is a ferroelectric with ABO 3 perovskite structure and high Curie temperature [15]. Doping of BiFeO 3 into Bi 0.5 Na 0.5 TiO 3 -based ceramics can influence microstructures and electrical properties of the ceramics [16][17][18][19][20]. We have studied the effects of BiFeO 3 on microstructures, dielectric and ferroelectric properties of 0.94Bi 0.5 Na 0.5 TiO 3 -0.06BaTiO 3 (NBTB) ceramics [20].…”

Effects of potassium content on the electrical and mechanical properties of (Na1-xKx)0.5Bi0.5TiO3 thin films

“…1(a), the characteristic peaks of NBT-KBT-15 and NBT-KBT-18 thin films near 47.5 1are peak splitting due to coexistence of tetragonal and rhombohedral phases [17], then the fitted patterns of the thin films were obtained by multi-peak fitting in 2θ range of 45.6-48.61, as shown as Fig. 1(b).…”
