Abstract

We report the electric-field-induced ferroelectric (FEIN) to antiferroelectric (AFE) phase transition that is tuned by the poling temperatures in 0.89Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3-0. 06BaTiO3-0.05K0.5Na0.5NbO3 (0.89BNT-0.06BT-0.05KNN) ceramics. Phase transition and pyroelectric behaviors of the ceramics were investigated as functions of temperature and electric field. Pyroelectric coefficient peaks of (3 ∼ 6.5) × 10-8 °C cm-2 K-1 are detected at about 10 C above the poling temperatures for the samples poled at different temperatures. The poling temperature tuned pyroelectric behaviors are attributed to the FEIN to AFE phase transition when the temperature increases.
