Abstract

The electric and dielectric properties of (Bi0.5- yNa0.5)0.94- xBa0.06(Bi0.2Sr0.70.1)xTiO3 (BNBT-BST) ceramics, derived from the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) of the parent matrix 0.94(Bi0.5Na0.5)TiO3-0.06BaTiO3 (BNT-BT), are studied. The pseudocubic structures are formed without apparent secondary phases for all the compositions. The Bi deficiency displays significant effect on the dielectric permittivity of BNBT-BST ceramics. A plateau of high permittivity ∼5000 in the temperature evolution is formed with small variation, indicating the potential use for the high-temperature dielectrics. The bulk conductivity, calculated from the complex impendence (Z′/Z″), is conducted to learn the influence of the oxygen vacancies on the dielectric response in different atmospheres. After the re-oxidation of the Bi deficient BNBT-BST ceramics, the operational temperature range is broadened with 10% variation in permittivity from 50 °C to 300 °C.
