Influence of Ti additions on the Texture and Dielectric Properties of LSBN-BST Complex Ceramics
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 10 February 2011
Abstract
The stoichiometric La-Ti doped strontium-barium niobate ceramic system was obtained for different concentrations of Titanium ions (Ti=1,3,5,10,30,50 %), where the Nb5− was substituted by Ti4+ according to the following expression Sr0.255 La0.03Bao0.7Nb2−yTiyO6−y/2 (LSBN-BST). The oxygen vacancies thus created which, together with the vacancies in the A sites of the tetragonal tungsten-bronze (TTB) material structure, have an important influence on their texture and dielectric properties, due to the crucial role of the occupancy of the crystallographic sites. X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy and thermoelectric analyses are reported. We report the first results for thin films of LSBNT- 7 % obtained by the PLD technique. The diffraction pattern reveals the presence of the LSBNT structure without annealing.
