Abstract
- Aurivillius phase Bi 3 Ti 1− x Ta x Nb 1− x W x O 12 high temperature piezoceramics were prepared by a conventional solid state reaction method. The crystal structure, dielectric, electrical conduction and piezoelectric properties were systematically studied. Pure or modified Bi 3 TiNbO 9 ceramics revealed the presence of only two-layered Aurivillius phase, indicating that Ta/W doping entered into the B-site of pseudo-perovskite structure and formed solid solutions. The Curie temperature had a strong reliance on the structural distortion. Furthermore, Ta/W dopants act as a donor doping, decrease the number of oxygen vacancies and facilitate the domain wall motion. As a result, Ta/W modifications significantly increase the DC resistivity and piezoelectric properties. Bi 3 Ti 0.98 Ta 0.02 Nb 0.98 W 0.02 O 12 ceramics possess the optimum d 33 value (∼12.5 pC/N) together with a high T C point (∼893 °C). Moreover, the resonance–antiresonance spectra demonstrate that the Ta/W-BTN ceramics are indeed piezoelectric in nature at 600 °C. The d 33 value of BTTNW-2 ceramic remains ∼12.2 pC/N after annealing at 700 °C. These factors suggest that the BTTNW-based ceramic is a promising candidate for ultra-high temperature sensor applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
