Abstract

In this review paper, the discussion is about some of the lead based antiferroelectric (AFE) perovskite materials. The antiferroelectric perovskite materials mainly lead zirconate (PZ) and lead zirconate titanate (PZT) prepared by solid state reaction route with their structure change at different concentrations, phase transition, their dielectric properties ormore. These materials caught the attention of the researchers because of their use in high energy storage devices, pyroelectric devices, sensors, cooling devices, pulse power generators and have many more applications. The reason could be their electric field phase transformation between the antiferroelectric (AFE) state and ferroelectric (FE) state and the phase switching property can be one of the strong factors responsible for the performance of the PZ based materials. Thecentral focus of this review is to briefly explain the continuous increase in research in the antiferroelectric materials by enhancing the PZ with many dopants. We mainly address PZ and PZT solid solution properties.
