Abstract
Dielectric energy storage capacitors offer great potential in pulsed power devices due to the high power density and fast charging-discharging rate. Designing a host material with high field-induced polarization is of importance for developing dielectric energy storage materials via further composition modulation. In this paper, we compare the microstructure, dielectric, and ferroelectric properties as well as the energy storage performance of samples K1/2Bi1/2TiO3(KBT), 75KBT-25BiFeO3 (KBTF25), and 88KBT-12Bi0.85Nd0.15FeO3 (KBNTF12) in detail. It is found that, among three samples, sample KBNTF12 possesses the most complex local structure coexisting of a four-distortions with different polarities; meanwhile, sample KBNTF12 behaves as a strong relaxor, thus giving a high field-induced polarization. Besides, sample KBNTF12 realizes the highest electric breakdown strength Eb among three samples, which is resorted to the highest resistivity of grain boundary. Highest ΔP and Eb of sample KBNTF12 among three samples render it achieve ultrahigh stored energy density Ws of 6.94 J/cm3, high recoverable energy density Wr of 5.23 J/cm3, and high efficiency η of 75.4%. Our work suggests that 88KBT-12BNF binary composition be an optimal candidate for dielectric energy storage ceramics.
