Phase Transitions in Na_1/2Bi_1/2TiO₃-SrTiO₃-PbTiO₃Solid Solutions

Abstract

Abstract All sequential steps of transfer from relaxor to normal ferroelectric phase transition are found in Na1/2Bi1/2TiO3-SrTiO3-PbTiO3 if concentration of PbTiO3 increases. The relaxor properties in Na1/2Bi1/2TiO3-SrTiO3-PbTiO3 solid solutions are described by the power law and Vogel-Fulcher relationship. Concentration dependence of the relevant parameters is discussed. Stability of relaxor and ferroelectric phases is discussed by analyzing behaviour of critical electric fields. Keywords: NBTrelaxorssolid solutions
