Abstract
- Phase diagram of the solid solution system K 0.5 Na 0.5 NbO 3 - Bi ½ Na ½ TiO 3 [(1-x)KNN-xBNT] has been established from dielectric permittivity measurement and structure analyses. The unit cell volumes continuously decrease depending on the composition, while the local structure maintains distortions away from the cubic average structure in the range 0.10 ≤ x ≤ 0.90. No clear correspondence for the temperatures of phase transition exists between structural studies and physical properties. The dielectric behavior is depicted successively from normal ferroelectric, diffuse phase transition, re-entrant-like relaxor, relaxor + dipolar glass-like relaxor, BNT-like relaxor with the increase of BNT. A comprehensive composition-property phase diagram for this system has been given to understand the various ferroelectric phenomena. The result could be mainly elucidated by the nanoclusters and the disorder driven nucleation of polar nanoregions contributed by a valence mismatch at one of the cation sites. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
