Abstract
- The structural and various electrical properties of (1-x)Pb(Zr 1-z Ti z)O 3 -xPb(Zn 0.4 Ni 0.6) 1/3 Nb 2/3 O 3 [(1-x)P(Z 1-z T z)-xPZNN] piezoceramics have been systematically investigated to ascertain the compositions that manifest a rhombohedral-pseudocubic-tetragonal (R-PC-T) multistructure. Rietveld refinement results indicate that the pseudocubic (PC) structure observed in the (1-x)P(Z 1-z T z)-xPZNN piezoceramics closely resembles the Pm3m cubic structure. Nonetheless, the PC structure cannot be classified as cubic, given that piezoceramics exhibiting the PC structure also demonstrate ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties. The R-PC-T multistructure was detected in (1-x)P(Z 1-z T z)-xPZNN piezoceramics for compositions where 0.335 ≤ x ≤ 0.44, across various z values. Compositions exhibiting the R-PC-T multistructure are identified as particularly promising. Notably, the piezoceramic with the composition 0.58 P(Z 0.41 T 0.59)-0.42PZNN (x = 0.42 and z = 0.59) displayed remarkable piezoelectric properties, including a high piezoelectric charge constant, d 33 , of 825 pC/N, a coupling coefficient, k p , of 0.7, and a strain of 0.185% at 3.0 kV/mm, alongside a high Curie temperature (T C) of 240 °C. • (1-x)P(Z 1-z T z)-xPZNN piezoceramics with R-PC-T multistructure were identified. • The PC structure of (1-x)P(Z 1-z T z)-xPZNN ceramics is close to the Pm3m C structure. • Most piezoceramics with R-PC-T multistructure exhibit excellent piezoelectricity. • 0.58 P(Z 0.41 T 0.59)-0.42PZNN piezoceramic shows a large d 33 (825 pC/N) and k p (0.7).
