Ferroelectric materials are the best dielectric and piezoelectric materials known today. Since
the discovery of barium titanate in the 1940s, lead zirconate titanate ceramics in the 1950s …

Environmental concerns are strongly driving the need to replace the lead-based
piezoelectric materials currently employed as multilayer actuators. The current review …

A large body of work has been reported in the last 5 years on the development of lead‐free
piezoceramics in the quest to replace lead–zirconate–titanate (PZT) as the main material for …

Lead zirconate titanate (PZT) based piezoelectric materials are well known for their excellent
piezoelectric properties. However, considering the toxicity of lead and its compounds, there …

Because of the environmental concerns of eliminating lead from piezoelectric products,
bismuth‐based perovskite is becoming one of the most potential candidates. However, its …

The effect of Nb substitution on the crystal structure, ferroelectric, and electric field induced
strain properties of Bi0. 5 (Na82K0. 18) 0.5 TiO3 (BNKT) ceramics has been investigated …

In this paper, we report the synthesis of [001] pc/[012] Rh (pc: pseudo cubic, Rh:
rhombohedral) grain oriented lead-free piezoelectric 0.93 (Na0. 5Bi0. 5TiO3)–0.07 BaTiO3 …

(K0. 5Na0. 5) NbO3 (KNN) based lead free ceramics have been fabricated by a solid state
reaction. In this work, LiSbO3 (LS) modified KNN based ceramics were sintered at …

The search for electroceramic materials with enhanced ferro-pyro-piezoelectric properties
and revealing the perovskite type structure has been the objective of a significant number of …

The present work encompasses the structural, microstructural, dielectric,
impedance/modulus and conductivity studies on [Bi0. 5 (Na1-xKx) 0.5] 0.94Ba0 …
