Title: Symmetry-mode analysis for intuitive observation of structure-property relationships in the lead-free antiferroelectric (1-x)AgNbO₃-xLiTaO₃

Abstract

Functional materials are of critical importance to electronic and smart devices. A deep understanding of the structure–property relationship is essential for designing new materials. In this work, instead of utilizing conventional atomic coordinates, a symmetry-mode approach is successfully used to conduct structure refinement of the neutron powder diffraction data of (1-x)AgNbO3–xLiTaO3 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.09) ceramics. This provides rich structural information that not only clarifies the controversial symmetry assigned to pure AgNbO3 but also explains well the detailed structural evolution of (1-x)AgNbO3–xLiTaO3 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.09) ceramics, and builds a comprehensive and straightforward relationship between structural distortion and electrical properties. It is concluded that there are four relatively large-amplitude major modes that dominate the distorted Pmc21 structure of pure AgNbO3, namely a Λ3 antiferroelectric mode, a T4+ a-a-c0 octahedral tilting mode, an H2 a0a0c+/a0a0c- octahedral tilting mode and a Γ4- ferroelectric mode. The H2 and Λ3 modes become progressively inactive with increasing x and their destabilization is the driving force behind the composition-driven phase transition between the Pmc21 and R3c phases. This structural variation is consistent with the trend observed in the measured temperature-dependent dielectric properties and polarization–electric field (P-E) hysteresis loops.

THE FERROELECTRIC-ANTIFERROELECTRIC TRANSITION AND DIELECTRIC PROPERTIES IN THE TERNARY SYSTEM PbZrO$sub 3$-PbHfO$sub 3$-PbTiO$sub 3$

Thesis/Dissertation Hall, C A

Variations in phase behavior between the binary systems PbZrO/sub 3/-- PbTiO/sub 3/ and PbHfO/sub 3/-- PbTiO/sub 3/ previously were reported. This behavior led to the investigation of the ferroelectric-antiferroelectric transition and dielectric properties in the ternary system PbZrO/sub 3/-PbHfO/sub 3/PbTiO/sub 3/. The investigation included compositions up to 10 mole% PbTiO/sub 3/ on the PbHfO/sub 3/- PbTiO/sub 3/ binary and the ompositions on the PbZrO/sub 3/- PbTiO/sub 3/ binary were prepared for comparison. Ceramic specimens were prepared using a moderately pure hafnium oxide (98.5% HfO/sub 2/). The raw materials were mixed and then calcined for six hours at 850 c- Cmore »« less
Global and local structural variations near the antiferroelectric regime in Na{sub 0.5}Bi{sub 0.5}TiO{sub 3}

Journal Article Thangavelu, Karthik ; Department of Materials Science and Metallurgical Engineering, Indian Institute of Technology Hyderabad, ODF-Campus-502205 ; Rayaprol, S. ; ... - AIP Conference Proceedings

Rietveld refinement of neutron and x-ray diffraction data of Na{sub 0.5}Bi{sub 0.5}TiO{sub 3} shows R3c phase stabilization at room temperature. The intermediate antiferroelectric region between 180°C to 280°C exhibits phase coexistence i.e R3c + Pnma, along with decrease in octahedral tilt angle and increase in unit cell volume. The local structural changes observed from Raman scattering in the A-O, Ti-O and TiO{sub 6} phonon modes favor the global structural variation. A possible antiparallel cation displacement due to Pnma phase formation leads to the origin of antiferroelectric ordering in Na{sub 0.5}Bi{sub 0.5}TiO{sub 3}.

Softening of antiferroelectricity in PbZrO{sub 3}-Pb(Mn{sub 1/2}W{sub 1/2})O{sub 3} complex perovskite solid solution

Journal Article Ren, Zihe ; Zhang, Nan ; Su, Lun-Wei ; ... - Journal of Applied Physics

A new solid solution of complex perovksite structure, (1-x)PbZrO{sub 3}-xPb(Mn{sub 1/2}W{sub 1/2})O{sub 3} (PZ-xPMnW, with x = 0–0.1), is prepared by solid state reaction method. Its crystal structure, dielectric properties, and antiferroelectricity are investigated. It is found that the crystal structure of the solid solution remains in the orthorhombic Pbam symmetry with x ≤ 0.1. The induced ferroelectric polarization (P{sub Ind}) is enhanced, whereas the critical field (E{sub Cr}) is decreased, with increasing PMnW concentration, indicating the softening of antiferroelectricity in PZ. The Curie temperature (T{sub C}) is also decreased with the substitution of PMnW for PZ. The grain size is significantly enlarged, whichmore »« less

Microstructural evolution in NaNbO{sub 3}-based antiferroelectrics

Journal Article Guo, Hanzheng ; Randall, Clive A. ; Shimizu, Hiroyuki - Journal of Applied Physics

Our recent study found that CaZrO{sub 3} doping can effectively enhance the antiferroelectric P phase in NaNbO{sub 3} ceramics, leading to a double polarization hysteresis loop characteristic of a reversible antiferroelectric ↔ ferroelectric phase transition [Shimizu et al., Dalton Trans. 44, 10763 (2015)]. Here, a thorough transmission electron microscope study was performed to illustrate the CaZrO{sub 3} doping-assisted antiferroelectricity stabilization. In parallel to the bright-field imaging and selected area electron diffraction from multiple zone axes, detailed dark-field imaging was utilized to determine the superlattice structural origins, from either oxygen octahedral tilting or antiparallel cation displacements. By analogy with Pb(Zr{sub 1−x}Ti{submore »« less

Pressure-induced ferroelectric to antiferroelectric phase transition in Pb{sub 0.99}(Zr{sub 0.95}Ti{sub 0.05}){sub 0.08}Nb{sub 0.2}O{sub 3}

Journal Article Avdeev, Maxim ; Jorgensen, James D ; Short, Simine ; ... - Physical Review. B, Condensed Matter and Materials Physics

Zr-rich, Nb-doped lead zirconate titanate ceramic and powder samples with composition near Pb{sub 0.99}(Zr{sub 0.95}Ti{sub 0.05}){sub 0.98}Nb{sub 0.02}O{sub 3} [PZT95/5(2Nb)] have been studied in the range of hydrostatic pressure 0-6.2 kbar and temperature 12-295 K by time-of-flight neutron powder diffraction and dielectric measurements. The combination of the two techniques has led to further insights into the properties and pressure-induced ferroelectric rhombohedral R3c (F{sub R(LT)}) to antiferroelectric orthorhombic Pbam (A{sub O}) phase transition in this material, and the diffraction results have provided a detailed view of the ionic displacements induced by changes in pressure and temperature as well as the displacementsmore »« less
