Published in 2024 at "ECS Journal of Solid State Science and Technology"

DOI: 10.1149/2162-8777/ad26a5

Abstract: In this study, (1-x)K0.5Na0.5NbO3−xBa0.5Sr0.5(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O3, [(1-x)KNN-xBSZN] lead-free relaxor ceramics were fabricated by a conventional solid-state reaction method. X-ray diffraction and Raman spectra confirm the R-C phase transition of the ceramics. The incorporation of BSZN effectively suppressed… read more here.
