Significantly improved energy storage characteristics of Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3-BaTiO3-based lead-free relaxation ferroelectric ceramics
摘要
Dielectric ceramic capacitors have received a great deal of attention. In this work, (1-x)[0.92Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3-0.08(0.5Ca0.3Ba0.7TiO3-0.5BaTi0.8Zr0.2O3)]-xNaNbO3 ceramics were prepared. The breakdown electric field of the ceramics is significantly enhanced, thanks to the rational two-phase (P4bm and R3c) coexistence structure and introduction of NaNbO3. As a result, a recoverable energy storage density (Wr) of 3.7 J/cm3 and an efficiency (η) of 84.8% are achieved in 0.88[0.92Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3-0.08(0.5Ca0.3Ba0.7TiO3-0.5BaTi0.8Zr0.2O3)]-0.12NaNbO3 sample. In addition, at 160 °C, the sample has 2.8 J/cm3 of Wr and 92.1% of η at 240 kV/cm. Besides, the sample has excellent power density and rapid charge/discharge capability.
