Abstract

Extending the investigations on (Na 0.5 K 0.5 )NbO 3 -based solid solution for lead-free piezoelectric ceramics, this paper consider the complex solid-solution system (Na 0.5 K 0.5 )NbO 3 –Bi 0.5 (Na 0.85 K 0.15 ) 0.5 TiO 3 [NKN-BNKT]. (Na 0.5 K 0.5 )NbO 3 with 2 ~ 6 mol% Bi 0.5 (Na 0.85 K 0.15 ) 0.5 TiO 3 has been prepared following the conventional mixed oxide process. A morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) between orthorhombic (O) and hexagonal (H) was found at the composition 0.96NKN-0.04BNKT with correspondingly enhanced dielectric and piezoelectric properties. The electromechanical coupling factor and dielectric constant are higher for compositions near the MPB. The dielectric constant (K T 33 ), planar coupling coefficient ( k p ) and thickness coupling coefficient ( k t )of 0.96NKN-0.04BNKT ceramics were 1273, 34% and 38%, respectively.
