Abstract:
Lead-free piezoelectric ceramics Sr2Bi4-xGdxTi5O18 were prepared by conventional solid-state reaction method. Pure bismuth layered structural ceramics with uniform gain size were obtained in all samples. The effect of Gd-doping on the dielectric, ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties of Sr2Bi4Ti5O18 ceramics were also investigated. It was found that that Gd3+ dopant gradually decreased the Curie temperature (Tc) with the lower dielectric loss (tand) of SBTi ceramics. In addition, Gd-doping with appropriate content improved the ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties of the SBTi ceramics. The piezoelectric constant (d33) of the Sr2Bi3.9Gd0.1Ti5O18 ceramic reached the maximum value, which is 22 pC/N. The results showed that the Sr2Bi4-xGdxTi5O18 ceramic was a promising lead-free piezoelectric material.

Abstract:
Piezoelectric ceramics are functional information ceramic materials that can convert mechanical and electrical energy into each other. They are widely used in high-tech fields, such as the electronics industry, machinery, and aerospace. Currently, Pb(ZrTi)O3 (PZT) piezoelectric materials are most commonly used, but the main component, PbO, is toxic and volatile during production and manufacturing, thus causing certain damage to human health and the environment. Therefore, research on green and environmentally friendly lead-free piezoelectric materials has been attracting much attention. This paper will therefore present two lead-free piezoelectric ceramics that have the potential to replace PZT-based lead-containing piezoelectric materials: Potassium Sodium Niobate (KNN)-based piezoelectric ceramics and Bismuth Sodium Titanate (BNT)-based lead-free piezoelectric ceramics. The piezoelectric constants of lead-free piezoelectric ceramics represented by systems such as KNN and BNT are now comparable to those of lead-containing piezoelectric ceramics and are gradually replacing traditional lead-based piezoelectric ceramics in fields such as ultrasonic atomization and hydroacoustic energy transfer.

Abstract:
Piezoelectric ceramics with appropriate curie temperatures and high dielectric and piezoelectric performances are attractive for formations of ceramic/polymer piezoelectric composites. The PSZT ceramics with compositions of 0.98Pb1.0-xBaxTi0.48Zr0.52O3-0.02PbSbO3 (x=0.14~0.24) have been prepared by a conventional solid reaction process. The ceramic structures are analyzed by X-ray diffraction and the barium substitution leads to structural changes of the tetragonal and rhombohedral phases which constitute the perovskite PSZT ceramics, and lattice distortions. The curie temperature almost linearly decreases from 226 °C to 141 °C corresponding the barium content increases from 0.14 to 0.24 in the ceramics. The dielectric and piezoelectric properties are largely influenced by the barium substitution and when the barium content at vicinity of 0.22, the piezoelectric strain constant d33 exhibits a dramatic change. It is found that as the barium content around 0.22, the PSZT ceramic specimen is characterized with a low curie temperature Tc=156 °C, and satisfied dielectric and piezoelectric properties with the relative dielectric constant εr=5873, dielectric loss factor tanδ=0.0387, piezoelectric strain constant d33=578 pC/N.

Abstract:
The impact of phase structure on piezoelectric performances of <001> textured Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 (NBT) based lead-free ceramics was studied, including 0.88NBT-0.08K0.5Bi0.5TiO3-0.04BaTiO3 (88NBT) with morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) composition and 0.90NBT-0.07K0.5Bi0.5TiO3-0.03BaTiO3 (90NBT) with rhombohedral phase. Both textured ceramics exhibit a high Lotgering factor, being on the order of f~96%. The piezoelectric coefficients of the textured 88NBT and 90NBT ceramics are increased by 20% and 60%, respectively, comparing to their randomly oriented ceramics. The piezoelectric enhancement of 90NBT textured ceramic is three times higher than 88NBT, revealing the phase structure plays a significant role in enhancing the piezoelectric performances of textured ceramics. Of particular significance is that the 90NBT textured ceramic exhibits almost hysteresis-free strain behavior. The enhanced piezoelectric property with minimal strain hysteresis is attributed to the <001> poled rhombohedral engineered domain configuration.

Compared to an undoped ceramic sintered without the calcined powder, both ceramics showed reduced leakage current densities (lower than 1 × 10-7 A/cm2) and absence of dielectric relaxation behaviors observed in frequency- and temperature-dependent dielectric measurements. The Curie temperatures of both samples were higher than 460°C. The maximum field-induced strain over the applied field, S max /E max , of 366 pm/V of the undoped ceramic sintered without the calcined powder increased to 455 and 799 pm/V for the V-doped ceramics and the ceramics sintered with the calcined powder, respectively. The increase was related to a reduced concentration of bismuth vacancy–oxygen vacancy defect dipoles.

Microwave photonic link (MPL), which processes microwave signal with photonic technologies, has offered many advantages such as increased channel capacity, immunity to RF disturbance, reduction of size and weight, and low loss. External modulation of the MPL applies Mach-Zehnder interferometer (MZI) for the modulating. The traditional phase transitional behavior of the EO device lacks the performances required for quick response, low half-wave voltage V and high loaded power, while maintaining low noise, high SNR, and large dynamic range operation. This paper proposed a method in which the piezoelectric ceramic-based integrated optical waveguide with 3dB loss at the highest power was applied to the MZI. We built the physical model for the phase transitional behavior based on the piezoelectrics, analyzed the piezoelectric properties of ceramics. The impacts of the piezoelectric ceramic on the property of MPL were discussed numerically.

Abstract:
In this study, we explore binder jet printing and sintering piezoelectric ceramic samples consisting of barium titanate (BaTiO3) and small amounts of sintering aids. Binder jet printing of piezoelectric ceramics shows promise for being a preferred additive manufacturing method for piezoelectric ceramics. Thus far binder jet printed piezoelectric ceramics have suffered from lower piezoelectric and dielectric properties than conventionally manufactured piezoelectric ceramics. This is mainly due to the high porosity of sintered binder jet printed samples. This investigation uses sintering aids that enable printed samples to sinter at lower temperatures and compact into higher densities than printed samples consisting of pure BaTiO3. In this presentation, we will discuss our selection of sintering aids, our investigation of sintering temperature profiles, and the properties of sintered samples. We will show a comparison of properties between our printed and sintered samples with BaTiO3 samples manufactured using uniaxial pressing. We will finish by discussing future steps in printing and sintering fully dense piezoelectric ceramics given the current state of this technology. [Work funded by the Office of Naval Research.]

Abstract:
The application of piezoelectric ceramic material in de-icing technique of aircrafts is presented in numerical simulation and experiment methods. Firstly, the ice properties are introduced briefly as the evaluation of device design. Then, modal simulation of the testing skin of NACA 0030 is performed to determine the position where the piezoelectric ceramics fix. The resonance frequency as the driving frequency in the experiment is calculated in harmonic analysis with the actuators bonding on the testing skin model. Moreover, piezoelectric de-icing rig is fabricated as the modeling results. It is shown that the driving frequency agrees well with the calculated resonance frequency, and the ice can be removed when the driving frequency is 1530 Hz and the driving voltage is 650 V. In addition, design factors as material properties, size of the ceramics, and excitation voltage are discussed. From the numerical calculation, the stress will vary with different piezoelectric ceramic materials and sizes of the ceramics. It will decrease with the increase of thickness of the piezoelectric ceramics, but increase linearly with the increase of the voltage. Therefore it is considerable to choose design parameters for piezoelectric de-icing systems.

The effects of different contents of CeO2-Y2O3 dopants to the (Ba0.85Ca0.15) (Zr0.1Ti0.9)O3 composition were analyzed by studying the phase, surface microstructure, piezoelectric and ferroelectric properties of BCZT ceramics. In this study, we have shown that co-doping a small amount of CeO2 and Y2O3 will not change the phase structure of (Ba0.85Ca0.15)(Zr0.1Ti0.9)O3 ceramics. However, the proper introduction of CeO2 and Y2O3 can improve the piezoelectric constant and electromechanical coupling coefficient of BCZT ceramic samples. Moreover, these dopants can promote the grain growth process in (Ba0.85Ca0.15) (Zr0.1Ti0.9)O3 ceramics. C0.04Y0.02 doped (Ba0.85Ca0.15)(Zr0.1Ti0.9)O3 ceramic has the best piezoelectric properties compared with other composition, the results are as follows: Relative density = 96.9%, Kp = 0.583, and d33 = 678 pC/N, V = 8.9 V.

Samples of 0.96(K0.48Na0.48Li0.04)(Nb0.95Sb0.05)O3-0.04Bi0.5(Na0.82K0.18)0.5ZrO3 piezoelectric ceramic were fabricated with conventional ceramic techniques and sintered at different temperatures. The effect of sintering temperature (TS) on the structure, microstructure, and piezoelectric properties of the ceramics was studied in detail. The experimental results showed that with an increase of the TS temperature, the structure of the ceramics transformed from an orthorhombic-tetragonal mixed phase (O-T) at TS £ 1100 °C into a rhombohedral-tetragonal (R-T) mixed phase with a dense microstructure of uniform grain size at TS = 1110 °C. When TS was further increased (TS ³ 1120 °C), the ceramics showed only a rhombohedral phase (R). The ceramics showed the best electrical properties for TS = 1110 °C at which the rhombohedral and tetragonal (R-T) phases coexist. Specifically, the ceramic density reached its highest value (4.22 g/cm3), the electromechanical coupling coefficients kp and kt were 0.46 and 0.50, respectively, and the piezoelectric coefficient d33 was 245 pC/N.

Multiferroic solid solutions of Ba1−xLaxTi1−x/4O3 and iron (BLFT) were synthesized using the conventional mixed oxide method. The dependence of the piezoelectric coefficients on Fe content in BLFT ceramics was determined by the quasi-static and resonance method. The results indicate that 0.3 mol% addition of Fe3+ ions to the ceramic structure increased the value of the piezoelectric parameter d33 to the maximum of 159 pC/N. This puts BLFT ceramics among other good-quality and lead-free piezoelectric ceramics. A major enhancement of dielectric properties related to the manipulation of Fe content in the barium lanthanum titanate (BLT) ceramics system is reported as well.

Abstract:
Piezoelectric materials produce electricity when strained, making them ideal for different types of sensing applications. The most effective piezoelectric materials are ceramic solid solutions in which the piezoelectric effect is optimized at what are termed morphotropic phase boundaries (MPBs). Ceramics are not ideal for a variety of applications owing to some of their mechanical properties. We synthesized piezoelectric materials from a molecular perovskite (TMFM)x(TMCM)1–xCdCl3 solid solution (TMFM, trimethylfluoromethyl ammonium; TMCM, trimethylchloromethyl ammonium, 0 ≤ x ≤ 1), in which the MPB exists between monoclinic and hexagonal phases. We found a composition for which the piezoelectric coefficient d33 is ~1540 picocoulombs per newton, comparable to high-performance piezoelectric ceramics. The material has potential applications for wearable piezoelectric devices.

Abstract:
Ceramic materials based on lead titanate, lead niobate and bismuth layer-structured ferroelectrics (BLSF) were studied to develop piezoelectric ceramics for high temperature sensor applications. Compositional modification enabled lead titanate and lead niobate type ceramics to exhibit good piezoelectric properties at 500°C . The Curie temperature for one BLSF, CaBi4Ti4O15 was close to 800°C, though the piezoelectric constant was smaller than those of lead titanate and lead niobate ceramics. These ceramics seem to be good candidates for use as high temperature sensor materials. In addition, textured SrBi2Nb2O9 (SBN), another BLSF, ceramics with various orientation factors were fabricated through the templated grain growth (TGG) method. The resonant frequency of 76% textured SBN varied linearly with temperature and exhibited stable temperature characteristics. The temperature coefficient of the resonant frequency was –0.85 ppm/°C from –50 to 250°C, and was smaller than that of a quartz oscillator. Therefore, textured SBN ceramics are suitable for use as a resonator material when stable resonant frequency is needed in a high temperature range.

Abstract:
Material research and development on piezoelectric ceramics, especially lead-free ceramics, was proposed from a viewpoint of relationships between piezoelectricity and elastic constants such as Young’s modulus and Poisson’s ratio. We developed a method to be convenient to measure acoustic wave velocities by an ultrasonic thickness gauge with high-frequency. From the change in longitudinal and transvers wave velocities before and after DC poling, it was found that the ceramic bulk density was important to improve the piezoelectricity in lead-free ceramics. As a result, the candidates of lead-free ceramic compositions with higher piezoelectricity were proposed. Furthermore, the ratio of transvers wave velocity to longitudinal wave velocity was clarified to estimate compositions with higher piezoelectricity. The measurement of sound velocities was an effective method for researching and developing piezoelectric materials, and it was possible to design the material compositions of lead-free piezoelectric ceramics as well as lead-containing ceramics by the novel measuring method.

PbZrO3-PbTiO3 (PZT)-based ceramics are playing a dominant role in piezoelectric materials, their evaporation of harmful lead oxide during the sintering process causes a crucial environment problem. It is necessary to search for lead-free piezoelectric materials that have such excellent properties as those found in the PZT-based ceramics. Therefore (Na0.5K0.5)NbO3-based solid solutions were studied to improve piezoelectric properties. In the present study, various quantities of Bi2O3 were added into 0.98(Na0.5K0.5)NbO3-0.02Ba(Sn0.02Ti0.98)O3 (0.98NKN-0.02BST) ceramics. It was found that 0.98NKN-0.02BST with the addition of 0~4.0 wt.% Bi2O3 exhibit relatively good piezoelectric properties. For 0.98NKN-0.02BST ceramic with the addition of 1.0 wt.% Bi2O3, the electromechanical coupling coefficients of the planar mode kp and the thickness mode kt reach 0.21 and 0.46, respectively, at the sintering of 1100oC for 3 h. The ratio of thickness coupling coefficient to planar coupling coefficient is 2.2. It is obvious that 0.98NKN-0.02BST solid solution ceramic by adding low quantities of Bi2O3 is one of the promising lead-free ceramics for high frequency electromechanical transducer applications.

Abstract:
The preparation of low-cost multilayer piezoelectric devices requires using cheap internal electrodes between the dielectric layers. A general strategy is to reduce the sintering temperature Ts of the ceramic layer by sintering aids which can form a liquid phase. Here, 0.2 wt% Li2CO3 was added as a sintering aid to tailor the sinterability and piezoelectricity of the commercial PZT ceramics. As verified from experiments, the piezoelectric ceramics could be densified at a sintering temperature above 940 °C, suitable for co-firing with the cheap internal electrode. The optimized sintering temperature of 980 °C can be confirmed for the 0.2 wt% Li2CO3-modified PZT ceramics due to its high piezoelectric coefficient d33 ~ 701 pC/N, planar coupling factor kp ~ 66.7%, and a low mechanical quality factor Qm ~ 71 with a transition temperature of Tc ~ 226 °C, presenting the characteristics of typical soft piezoelectric ceramics. Moreover, both the potential piezoelectric strain ~0.13% under 20 kV/cm and the good cycling fatigue characteristic (>104 cycles) of the studied piezo compositions indicates strong competitiveness in the field of multilayer piezoelectric devices.

Owing to the high Curie temperature and good piezoelectric thermal stability, BiFeO3–BaTiO3 ceramics show great potentials for high-temperature piezoelectric sensor applications. In this paper, a compression-mode piezoelectric sensor was fabricated by the lead-free and high-temperature 0.75BiFeO3–0.25BaTiO3–MnO2 (BFBT25–Mn) ceramic and its sensitivity was characterized from room temperature to 550 °C over a frequency range of 200–1000 Hz. The output charge of the BFBT25–Mn piezoelectric sensor is independent of the measuring frequency at different temperatures. The maximum working temperature of the BFBT25–Mn piezoelectric sensor is 450 °C, about 250, 150, and 100 °C higher than those of these piezoelectric sensors fabricated by PZT-5A, BSPT64–Mn, and BSPT66–Mn ceramics, respectively. The temperature sensitivity coefficient from room temperature to 350 °C of the BFBT25–Mn piezoelectric sensor is 30% of that for the BSPT66–Mn sensor. Furthermore, the sensitivity of the BFBT25–Mn piezoelectric sensor is stable with the dwelling time at 400 °C. These results indicate that the BFBT25–Mn ceramic is a strong competitor for high temperature sensing applications.

Abstract:
Textured relaxor-PbTiO3 ceramics have received considerable attention from both academia and industry, due to their crystal-like properties, high composition homogeneity easy-to-process, and relatively low cost compared to their crystal counterparts. In this work, the [Formula: see text]-oriented Pb(In1/2Nb1/2)O3-Pb(Sc1/2Nb1/2)O3-PbTiO3 textured ceramics were fabricated by the template grain growth method. To explore the property variation in these textured ceramics under practical applications of piezoelectric devices, their electromechanical properties were characterized and analyzed under uniaxial stress, hydrostatic pressure, and d.c. bias electric field. The results show that the dielectric constants of all textured ceramics increase with an increase in the uniaxial prestress and hydrostatic pressure but decrease with an increase in the d.c. bias electric field. Among all textured ceramics, the textured ceramic with 3 vol. % BT templates exhibits the best stability under external fields. In particular, the electromechanical coupling factors of the textured ceramic change less than 2% with the hydrostatic pressure increase to 100 MPa. This work provides important data on textured relaxor ferroelectric ceramics, which will benefit the design and application of piezoelectric devices based on textured piezoelectric ceramics.

Lead-free piezoelectric 0.92(K0.445Na0.5Li0.05)NbO3-0.08BaZrO3 (KNLN-BZ) ceramics were prepared via conventional sintering. Single-step, 2-step and 3-step temperature-controlled conditions were designed. The structure and electrical properties of ceramics obtained using different temperature-controlled procedures were systematically studied. It was found that ceramic prepared using the 3-step method with a holding time of 20 h showed the highest electrical properties. The Curie temperature was approximately 286 °C, and the dielectric constant and dielectric loss at room temperature were 1350 and 4.5% at the frequency of 1 kHz, respectively. The highest remanent polarization, piezoelectric strain and piezoelectric coefficient, d33*, were obtained 60 °C, indicating a phase transition between ferroelectric phases. Although the ceramics did not show excellent piezoelectric properties, the 3-step sintering method can be considered an effective method to optimize the electrical performances of KNN-based ceramics. Combined with an appropriate composition, ceramics with excellent electrical properties could be obtained. This study provides a path to enhance the density and electrical properties for KNN-based ceramics with simple composition and potential for industry application.

Hydroxyapatite (HA) and barium titanate (BT) powders were mixed and sintered to form hydroxyapatite – barium titanate (HABT) ceramics. These materials were then poled and their piezoelectric properties were measured. The microstructure of unpoled samples was examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM).The piezoelectric constants (d33 and d31) of the ceramics were found to be dependent on the proportion of BT in the ceramic In materials containing less than 70% BT, no piezoelectric effect was found. Above this value, the piezoelectric constant increased with the addition of BT up to a value of 108pCN-1 for pure BT. Values of d33 for ceramics containing more than 80% BT are above values previously shown to have a positive influence on bone growth in vivo. SEM analysis indicated that the grain size within the materials decreased as the proportion of BT in the material was reduced. Examination of the microstructure of the ceramics indicated the presence of electrical domains in the 100% BT and 95% BT ceramics. Domains were not visible below 95% BT. The reduction in grain size may influence the reduction in piezoelectric activity within the materials but cannot be considered to be the only cause.

Abstract:
Piezoelectric ceramics have good electromechanical coupling characteristics and a high sensitivity to load. One typical engineering application of piezoelectric ceramic is its use as a signal source for Weigh-In-Motion (WIM) systems in road traffic monitoring. However, piezoelectric ceramics are also sensitive to temperature, which affects their measurement accuracy. In this study, a new piezoelectric ceramic WIM sensor was developed. The output signals of sensors under different loads and temperatures were obtained. The results were corrected using polynomial regression and a Genetic Algorithm Back Propagation (GA-BP) neural network algorithm, respectively. The results show that the GA-BP neural network algorithm had a better effect on sensor temperature compensation. Before and after GA-BP compensation, the maximum relative error decreased from about 30% to less than 4%. The sensitivity coefficient of the sensor reduced from 1.0192 × 10−2/°C to 1.896 × 10−4/°C. The results show that the GA-BP algorithm greatly reduced the influence of temperature on the piezoelectric ceramic sensor and improved its temperature stability and accuracy, which helped improve the efficiency of clean-energy harvesting and conversion.

Abstract:
Along with the increase in renewable energy, research on energy harvesting combined with piezoelectric energy is being conducted. However, it is difficult to predict the power generation of combined harvesting because there is no data on the power generation by a single piezoelectric material. Before predicting the corresponding power generation and efficiency, it is necessary to quantify the power generation by a single piezoelectric material alone. In this study, the generated power is measured based on three parameters (size of the piezoelectric ceramic, depth of compression, and speed of compression) that contribute to the deformation of a single PZT (Lead zirconate titanate)-based piezoelectric element. The generated power was analyzed by comparing with the corresponding parameters. The analysis results are as follows: (i) considering the difference between the size of the piezoelectric ceramic and the generated power, 20 mm was the most efficient piezoelectric ceramic size, (ii) considering the case of piezoelectric ceramics sized 14 mm, the generated power continued to increase with the increase in the compression depth of the piezoelectric ceramic, and (iii) For piezoelectric ceramics of all diameters, the longer the depth of deformation, the shorter the frequency, and depending on the depth of deformation, there is a specific frequency at which the charging power is maximum. Based on the findings of this study, PZT-based elements can be applied to cases that receive indirect force, including vibration energy and wave energy. In addition, the power generation of a PZT-based element can be predicted, and efficient conditions can be set for maximum power generation.

The performance of potassium sodium niobate ((K, Na) NbO3, KNN)-based lead-free piezoelectric ceramics has significantly improved over the past decade. However, the performance bottlenecks of KNN-based ceramics cannot be ignored. Here, the Nb2O5 precursor is obtained after thermal pretreatment, which can evidently improve the piezoelectric properties and strain temperature stability of KNN-based ceramics. With the help of the Nb2O5 precursor treated at 800 °C, the optimal piezoelectric constant d33 of 303 pC/N, inverse piezoelectric constant d*33 of 378 pm/V, Curie temperature TC of 310 °C and electromechanical coupling factor kp of 42% are obtained, and the value of d33 improves by about 30% compared with that of the ceramic prepared with untreated Nb2O5 as raw material. Additionally, in comparison with the strain temperature stability of the ceramics prepared with untreated Nb2O5 as raw material, the temperature stability is enhanced. Therefore, this study provides a useful approach to break the existing performance bottleneck and further improve the properties of KNN-based ceramics.

After several times of paste extrusion with a dispenser system, degreasing was performed at 650°C. The KNLN moldings were sintered, at 1,100–1,170°C, and sintering of BT moldings were performed by two-step sintering at 1,320°C and 1,150°C. From the x-ray diffraction pattern, the fabricated KNLN ceramics had a perovskite structure. The density of the KNLN and BT moldings fabricated by the dispenser system was 3.94 and 5.42 g/cm3, respectively. In addition, the BT moldings had the dielectric constant εr = 1.95 × 103. The Curie temperature of the BT moldings was confirmed at about 125°C, as with the BT piezoelectric ceramics fabricated by uniaxial pressure molding. The BT moldings had the piezoelectric constant d33 = 60 pC/N. The fabrication methods studied in this work provided the potential to fabricate simple three-dimensional piezoelectric ceramic devices for applications in acoustic wave sensors.

Abstract:
(1-x) (K0.475Na0.475Li0.05)(Nb0.975Sb0.025)O3-xmolBiFeO3 (x=0, 0.002, 0.004, 0.006, 0.008) doped with 0.8mol%CuO lead-free piezoelectric ceramics were prepared by the solid state reaction technique. X-ray diffraction patterns suggested that all the ceramics presented perovskite structure. The compositional dependence of the phase structure and the electrical properties of the ceramics were studied. The ceramic (x=0.002) near room temperature exhibited excellent electrical properties (piezoelectric constant d33=172pC/N, planar electromechanical coupling factor kp=0.43, and dielectric constant =418). A relatively high mechanical quality factor (Qm=200) was also obtained in this particular composition. All these results revealed that this system might become a promising candidate for lead-free piezoelectric materials.

Abstract:
Textured relaxor-PbTiO3 (PT) ceramics possess advantages of crystal-like properties, high composition homogeneity, and low cost, and have, thus, received considerable attention from the piezoelectric community. To promote the applications of textured relaxor-PT ceramics, here we characterize the full electromechanical parameters (elastic, dielectric, and piezoelectric coefficients) and the frequency dependence of the coercive field ( EC) for the recently reported textured Pb(In1/2Nb1/2)O3-Pb(Sc1/2Nb1/2)O3-PbTiO3 (PIN-PSN-PT) ceramic. Our results show that the textured PIN-PSN-PT ceramic possesses high piezoelectric coefficients ( d31 = −365 pC N−1, d33 = 770 pC N−1, and g33 = 40.4 × 10−3 m2 C−1) and electromechanical coupling factors ( k33 = 87% and kp = 82%), far outperforming those of the commercial ceramic PZT-5H ( d31 = −274 pC N−1, d33 = 593 pC N−1, g33 = 1.97 × 10−2 m2 C−1, k33 = 75%, and kp = 65%). In addition, the textured PIN-PSN-PT ceramic exhibits lower dielectric constants ( ɛ33S = 478) compared with PZT-5H and relaxor-PT crystals, which can greatly promote the sensitivity of receiving transducers. Moreover, the textured PIN-PSN-PT ceramic with a high Tr−t (172 °C) shows better thermal stability compared to commercial relaxor-PT crystals ( Tr−t < 130 °C). The results presented here will benefit the development of piezoelectric devices made of textured ceramics.

Abstract:
The dynamic piezoelectric response of SrBi4Ti4O15 ceramics with Aurivillius structure was investigated at high alternating stress, low frequencies (0.01 to 100 Hz), and temperatures from 20 to 200 °C. The piezoelectric nonlinearity, observed only at high pressures (>10 MPa) and elevated temperatures (>150 °C), is interpreted in terms of contributions from non-180° domain walls. At weak fields, the frequency dependence of the longitudinal piezoelectric coefficient was explained in terms of Maxwell–Wagner piezoelectric relaxation. The Maxwell–Wagner units are identified as colonies that consist of highly anisotropic grains which sinter together, and whose distribution in the ceramic is strongly dependent on sintering conditions.
