“…The structure and phase transition behavior of ferroelectric phases with the compositions Ba 2 MTi 2 X 3 O 15 (M = La, Pr, Nd, Sm, Eu, Gd, Dy, Bi; X = Nb, Ta) and Ba 6 MNb 9 O 30 (M = Ga, Sc and In) were reported by West et al and Arnold et al, respectively [13,14]. Recently, some Srbased TB ceramics such as Sr 5 LnTi 3 M 7 O 30 , Sr 4 Ln 2 Ti 4 M 6 O 30 (Ln = La, Nd, Sm, Gd, Y and M = Nb and Ta) were proposed and investigated [15][16][17][18][19][20]. Extensive literature on TB compounds reveals that no work has been reported on the titled compounds.…”
