무연 BNBT 세라믹스의 압전특성에 미치는 La 2 O 3 의 영향
Effects of La 2 O 3 on the Piezoelectric Properties of Lead-Free (Bi 0.5 Na 0.5 ) 0.94 Ba 0.06 TiO 3 Piezoelectric Ceramics
E-mail:
A lead free piezoelectric material, bismuth sodium barium titanate (Bi 0.5 Na 0.5 ) 0.94 Ba 0.06 TiO 3 (BNBT), was considered as an environment-friendly alternatives for the current PZT system. A perovskite BNBT was synthesized by conventional bulk ceramic processing technique. In order to improve piezoelectric properties, La 2 O 3 as a dopant was incorporated into the BNBT system up to 0.025 moi, ana the effects on subsequent the piezoelectric ana dielectric properties were systematically investigated. With increasing La 2 O 3 contents, the equilibrium grain shape was remarkably evidenced and sintered density was increased. Piezoelectric and dielectric properties were s]town to have maximum values at the La 2 O 3 contents of 0.02 mol. La 3+ ions seemed to act as a softener in the BNBT system and to enhance dielectric and piezoelectric properties in this study.
