Abstract
A two-dimensionally-dispersed template grain growth (2DD TGG) method is proposed for making piezoelectric 0.5Pb(Ni1/3Nb2/3)O3-0.16PbZrO3-0.34PbTiO3 (PNNZT) ceramics, textured using highly equi-aligned BaTiO3 (BT) templates. Unlike a conventional TGG process, the 2DD TGG utilizes both BT-free and BT-included piezoelectric layers, which are laminated alternately. A significantly high texture degree of 94% was obtained for the PNNZT ceramic textured by the 2DD TGG when sintered at 1000°C for 15 h. The evolved microstructure of the textured PNNZT ceramic led to its outstanding piezoelectric properties of d33=1334 pC/N, kp=92.4%, g33=38.5 × 10−3 V∙m/N, along with a dramatically enhanced large-signal electrostrain of d33∗ of 1409 pm/V at 1 kV/mm. These values indicate that the PNNZT ceramic textured by 2DD TGG is superior to those textured by conventional TGG. In addition, its fatigue behavior was satisfactory, allowing potential use for application in piezoelectric actuator devices.
期刊介绍:
Ceramics International covers the science of advanced ceramic materials. The journal encourages contributions that demonstrate how an understanding of the basic chemical and physical phenomena may direct materials design and stimulate ideas for new or improved processing techniques, in order to obtain materials with desired structural features and properties.
Ceramics International covers oxide and non-oxide ceramics, functional glasses, glass ceramics, amorphous inorganic non-metallic materials (and their combinations with metal and organic materials), in the form of particulates, dense or porous bodies, thin/thick films and laminated, graded and composite structures. Process related topics such as ceramic-ceramic joints or joining ceramics with dissimilar materials, as well as surface finishing and conditioning are also covered. Besides traditional processing techniques, manufacturing routes of interest include innovative procedures benefiting from externally applied stresses, electromagnetic fields and energetic beams, as well as top-down and self-assembly nanotechnology approaches. In addition, the journal welcomes submissions on bio-inspired and bio-enabled materials designs, experimentally validated multi scale modelling and simulation for materials design, and the use of the most advanced chemical and physical characterization techniques of structure, properties and behaviour.
Technologically relevant low-dimensional systems are a particular focus of Ceramics International. These include 0, 1 and 2-D nanomaterials (also covering CNTs, graphene and related materials, and diamond-like carbons), their nanocomposites, as well as nano-hybrids and hierarchical multifunctional nanostructures that might integrate molecular, biological and electronic components.
