Abstract

New ternary (1-x)K0.5Na0.5NbO3-x(0.80LiS- bO3-0.20CaTiO3) lead-free ceramics were fabricated by a conventional ceramic technique and their structure and piezoelectric properties were studied. The results of X-ray diffraction reveal that LiSbO3and CaTiO3diffuse into the K0.5Na0.5NbO3lattices to form a new solid solution with a perovskite structure. After the addition of LiSbO3and CaTiO3, the cubic-tetragonal and tetragonal-orthorhombic phase transitions shift to lower temperatures. Coexistence of the orthorhombic and tetragonal phases is hence formed in the ceramics with 0.03 < × < 0.07 at room temperature, leading to a significant enhancement of the piezoelectric properties. For the ceramics with × = 0.04-0.06, the piezoelectric properties become optimum: d33= 172-253 pC/N, kP= 49.9-55.5%, kt= 49.2-52.1% and TC= 348-373 °C. The ceramic with × = 0.04 also exhibits a good thermal stability of piezoelectric properties.
