Abstract

Applying a combinatorial methodology, (1−x)Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3−xBaTiO3 (NBT-BT) thin-film chips were fabricated on (001)-LaAlO3 substrates by pulsed laser deposition with a few quaternary masks. A series of NBT-BT library with the composition of BT ranged from 0 to 44% was obtained with uniform composition and well crystallinity. The relation between the concentration of NBT-BT and their structural and dielectric properties were investigated by x-ray diffraction (XRD), evanescent microwave probe, atomic force microscopy, and Raman spectroscopy. An obvious morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) was established to be about 9% BT by XRD, Raman frequency shift, and dielectric anomaly, different from the well-known MPB of the materials. The result shows the high efficiency of combinatorial method in searching new relaxor ferroelectrics.
