Pseudocubic-based polymorphic phase boundary structures and their effect on the piezoelectric properties of (Li,Na,K)(Nb,Sb)O3-SrZrO3 lead-free ceramics
摘要： CuO-added 0.96(LixNa0.5-xK0.5)(Nb1-ySby)O3-0.04SrZrO3 ceramics were sintered at 1020oC for 6 h. Various crystal structures were synthesized in these specimens by controlling the Li2CO3 (x) and Sb2O5 (y) contents: pseudocubic, orthorhombic-pseudocubic polymorphic phase boundary (PPB), tetragonal-pseudocubic PPB, orthorhombic-tetragonal-pseudocubic PPB, and orthorhombic-tetragonal PPB structures. The pseudocubic structure developed in these specimens was similar to the R3m rhombohedral structure instead of the Pm3m cubic structure because the specimens with a pure pseudocubic structure showed good ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties. The piezoelectric properties of the specimens were influenced by their crystal structures. The specimen with the tetragonal-pseudocubic PPB structure showed the best piezoelectric properties because this structure was similar to the tetragonal-rhombohedral morphotropic phase boundary structure developed in Pb(Zr1-xTix)O3-based ceramics. In particular, the specimen with the tetragonal-pseudocubic PPB structure corresponding to x = 0.05 and y = 0.065 showed the largest d33 and kp values of 431 pC/N and 0.43, respectively.

Composite BNT-BT0.08/CoFe2O4 with core-shell nanostructure for piezoelectric and ferromagnetic applications
摘要： In this work, we report on the synthesis and characterization of BNT-BT0.08/CoFe2O4 biphasic composite with core-shell structure. This artificial core (BNT-BT0.08)/shell (CoFe2O4) heterostructure was prepared by sol-gel method and the resulting composite was characterized in term of microstructure, dielectric, piezoelectric and magnetic properties. BNT-BT0.08/CoFe2O4 sintered ceramic shows high permittivity (ε′ ≥ 30) and high dielectric losses (tan δ ≥ 10) in the low frequency range (ν ≤ 104 Hz), remnant polarization (Pr) of ～7.7 μC/cm2 and, remanent magnetization (Mr) of 24 emu/g at 5 K and of 14 emu/g, at room temperature. The present study reveals that the ferroelectric, piezoelectric and magnetic properties of this new architectured composite depend on the amount of each component and, can be tailored by adjusting their synthesis conditions. BNT-BT0.08/CoFe2O4 core-shell material investigated in this work provides a novel way to exploit new applications for the multifunctional composite, such as piezoelectric sensor, magnetoelectronic sensors and data storage devices.

Eco-friendly highly sensitive transducers based on a new KNN-NTK-FM lead-free piezoelectric ceramic for high-frequency biomedical ultrasonic imaging applications
摘要： High-frequency ultrasonic imaging with improved spatial resolution has gained increasing attention in the field of biomedical imaging. Sensitivity of transducers plays a pivotal role in determining ultrasonic image quality. Conventional ultrasonic transducers are mostly made from lead-based piezoelectric materials that may be harmful to the human body and the environment. In this study, a new (K,Na)NbO3-KTiNbO5-BaZrO3-Fe2O3-MgO (KNN-NTK-FM) lead-free piezoelectric ceramic was utilized in developing eco-friendly transducers for high-frequency biomedical ultrasonic imaging applications. A needle transducer with a small active aperture size of 0.45 × 0.55 mm2 was designed and evaluated. The transducer exhibits great performance with a high center frequency (52.6 MHz), a good electromechanical coupling (keff ~ 0.45), a large bandwidth (64.4% at -6 dB), and a very low two-way insertion loss (10.1 dB). Such high sensitivity is superior to those transducers based on other lead-free piezoelectric materials and can even be comparable to the lead-based ones. Imaging performance of the KNN-NTK-FM needle transducer was analyzed by imaging a wire phantom and an agar tissue-mimicking phantom. Imaging capabilities of the transducer were further demonstrated by ex vivo imaging studies on a porcine eyeball and a rabbit aorta. The results suggest that the KNN-NTK-FM piezoceramic has many attractive properties over other lead-free piezoelectric materials in developing eco-friendly highly sensitive transducers for high-frequency biomedical ultrasonic imaging applications.

Improved upconversion photoluminescence properties of 0.965K0.4Na0.58Li0.02Nb0.96Sb0.04O3–0.035Bi0.5K0.5ZrO3:0.25%Er/xIn lead-free piezoelectric ceramics with balanced piezoelectric coefficient and Curie temperature
摘要： A series of erbium- and indium-doped 0.965K0.40Na0.58Li0.02Nb0.96Sb0.04O3–0.035Bi0.5K0.5ZrO3:0.25%Er/xIn lead-free piezoelectric ceramics with upconversion photoluminescence (UCPL) properties were prepared by the conventional solid state reaction. A systematical investigation into the effects of In3+ doping on the structural, dielectric, ferroelectric, piezoelectric, and UCPL properties of the ceramics was carried out. The distribution of Er3+-sites could be modified by In3+ doping according to the analysis of UV–Vis-NIR absorption cross-section, resulting in improved piezoelectric and photoluminescence properties of the ceramics. The optimized comprehensive properties are performed by the x = 0.25% samples of which the piezoelectric coefficient d33 ~ 257 pC/N, Curie temperature TC ~ 273 °C, remanent polarization Pr ~ 12.5 μC/cm2, dielectric constant εr ~ 1551, and d33 ~ 257 pC/N which is the supreme piezoelectric coefficient achieved in KNN-based UCPL ceramics as of now. The results demonstrate that erbium and indium co-doped KNN-based ceramics may have potential applications in electro-optical devices.

Controlled-Atmosphere Sintering of KNbO3
摘要： The e?ect of sintering atmosphere (O2, air, N2, N2-5% H2, and H2) on the densi?cation, grain growth, and structure of KNbO3 was studied. KNbO3 powder was prepared by solid state reaction, and samples were sintered at 1040 C for 1–10 h. The sample microstructure was studied using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The sample structure was studied using X-Ray Di?raction (XRD). H2-sintered samples showed reduced density, whereas other sintering atmospheres did not a?ect density much. Samples sintered in N2-5% H2 showed abnormal grain growth, whereas sintering in other atmospheres caused stagnant (O2, air, N2) or pseudo-normal (H2) grain growth behavior. Samples sintered in reducing atmospheres showed decreased orthorhombic unit cell distortion. The grain growth behavior was explained by the mixed control theory. An increase in vacancy concentration caused by sintering in reducing atmospheres led to a decrease in the step free energy and the critical driving force for appreciable grain growth. This caused grain growth behavior to change from stagnant to abnormal and eventually pseudo-normal.

Magnetoelectric effects at electromechanical resonance in laminates of lead-free piezoelectric bimorph and magnetostrictive component
摘要： The paper presents a theoretical model for magnetoelectric (ME) effect in multilayers of piezoelectric and magnetostrictive components. We assume the piezoelectric layer to be compositionally-stepped. Taking into account the toxicity of lead-based ceramic, piezoelectric component is made of a lead-free piezoelectric. Analytical expressions for ME voltage coefficients is obtained by substituting the expression for stress at bending mode into open electric circuit condition. Using the layered structure based on the compositionally-stepped piezoelectric components leads to an enhanced magnetoelectric coupling for specific component thickness ratio due to an increase in flexural deformation as compared with the bilayer based on homogeneous piezoelectric layer. For the laminate of lead-free piezoelectric langatate bimorph and magnetostrictive Permendur, ME coupling is stronger due to higher ratio of the piezoelectric coupling coefficient to the dielectric constant. In addition, an 80 % increase in magnetoelectric coupling strength due using the compositionally-stepped piezoelectric is obtained.

Orientation factor and piezoelectric property in textured (K,Na)NbO <sub/>3</sub> system ceramics with minimal templates
摘要： To lower the sintering temperature and decrease the weight ratio of templates required for fabricating textured (K,Na)NbO3 (KNN) system ceramics, the method of preparing platelike NaNbO3 (NN) single-crystal particles for the templates was improved. The NN crystal particles synthesized by the single-step molten salt method using a mixed salt were treated by ultrasonic vibration and subsequently screened. Using these improved templates, we developed the fabrication method for the textured KNN system ceramics by which the weight ratio of the templates required for the orientation control can be reduced to 1/10 of the conventional weight ratio. The effects of decreasing the weight ratio of templates on sintering temperature, orientation factor, and piezoelectric properties were investigated. In addition, the effects of adding Bi2O3 to KNN calcined powder were also studied to suppress abnormal grain growth, which appears in the textured samples fabricated using smaller amounts of the templates.

Structure and property of lead-free (K,Na)NbO3–(Bi1/2Na1/2)ZrO3–CaTiO3 piezoelectric ceramics
摘要： Simultaneous improvement of piezoelectricity and temperature stability is vital for developing high-performance KNN-based lead-free materials. Here, effects of CaTiO3 on phase structure, piezoelectricity and temperature stability of (1 – x)[0.95(K0.5Na0.5)NbO3–0.05(Bi0.5Na0.5)ZrO3]–xCaTiO3–0.2%MnO2 ceramics were studied. It was found that the orthorhombic-tetragonal phase transition temperature can be gradually decreased by increasing CaTiO3 content. Particularly, the improved strain temperature stability (strain varied < 15% when measurement temperature reaches 110 °C) and enhanced electrical properties (d33 ~ 296 pC/N and strain ~ 0.14%) can be observed in the ceramics with x = 0.02. Therefore, shifting the TO?T below room temperature is an effective way to promote temperature stability and electrical properties of KNN-based piezoelectric materials.
