Dense K{sub 4}CuNb{sub 8}O{sub 23} modified (Na{sub 0.5}K{sub 0.5})NbO{sub 3} (NKN:KCN) ceramics were synthesized by using conventional oxide mixing process. The maximum mechanical quality factor Q{sub m} of NKN:KCN ceramics reaches up to 1150, the piezoelectric constant d{sub 33} and the planar electromechanical coefficient k{sub p} still maintain relatively high levels, which are about 100 pC/N and 40%, respectively. Middle frequency (455 kHz) lead-free resonators were fabricated by using NKN:KCN, and remarkable improvements in resonance characteristics were found by KCN doping.
