Large strain response based on relaxor-antiferroelectric coherence in Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3-SrTiO3-(K0.5Na0.5)NbO3 solid solutions A new lead-free antiferroelectric solid solution system, (1Àx)NaNbO 3 -xSrZrO 3 , was rationalized through noting the crystal chemistry trend, of decreasing the tolerance factor and an increase in the average electronegativity of the system. The SrZrO 3 doping was found to effectively stabilize the antiferroelectric (P) phase in NaNbO 3 without changing its crystal symmetry. Preliminary electron diffraction and polarization measurements were presented which verified the enhanced antiferroelectricity. In view of our recent report of another lead-free antiferroelectric system (1Àx)NaNbO 3 -xCaZrO 3 [H. Shimizu et al. "Lead-free antiferroelectric: xCaZrO 3 -(1Àx)NaNbO 3 system (0 x 0.10)," Dalton Trans. (published online)], the present results point to a general strategy of utilizing tolerance factor to develop a broad family of new lead-free antiferroelectrics with double polarization hysteresis loops. We also speculate on a broad family of possible solid solutions that could be identified and tested for this important type of dielectric. V C 2015 AIP Publishing LLC. [http://dx.
