Abstract
The electrical properties and Raman spectroscopy of [001]-oriented pure lead-free Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3(NBT) and manganese-doped NBT single crystals have been investigated. With the effect of Mn-doping, the remnant polarization Prhas a great enhancement from 15.2 μC/cm2to 30.0 μC/cm2, and the pyroelectric coefficient is improved significantly from 178 μC/m2K to 241 μC/m2K. The Mn-doping has further altered the domain structure of the crystals, as revealed by piezoresponse force microscopy study. The Raman studies suggest that the substitution effect of Mn ions on B-site cations of the perovskite structure results in enhancement of the performance of the Mn-doped NBT single crystals.
