Abstract

The effect of W6+ doped on lattice structure and piezoelectric properties of 0.2PZN-0.8PZT ceramics was investigated. The results show that the pure perovskite phase form in ceramics. The lattice constant is decreasing with increasing W6+ additive, also the ratio of c/a is decreasing with the addition of tungsten, which should be attributed to replacing B-section ions such as Zn2+, Nb5+, Ti4+ and Zr4+ by W6+. The additions of tungsten will increase dielectric constant e and mechanical quality factor Qm, and decrease coercive electric field Ec, spontaneous polarization Ps, the electromechanical coupling factor Kp and piezoelectric constant d33. The composition with 1.0% (mass fraction) of WO3 addition on 0.2PZN-0.8PZT ceramics has the excellent piezoelectric properties, d33 is 314pC/N, Kp is 0. 62 with the high Qm amounted to 1178, which can meet the needs of high power piezoelectric devices.
