Abstract
An investigation of the ferroelectric and dielectric properties of niobium-doped SrBi4Ti4O15 (SrBi4−x/3Ti4−xNbxO15, x = 0.00, 0.003, 0.012, 0.03, 0.06) ceramics was presented. The ferroelectric property of SrBi4Ti4O15 was improved by niobium doping. The remanent polarization (2Pr) increases at first, then decreases with the increase in niobium content, while the coercive field changes little with Nb-doping. As the niobium content is 0.03, the 2Pr maximizes at a value of 24.7 µC cm−2, which is increased by about 60% in comparison with that of SrBi4Ti4O15. The Curie temperature of the samples hardly varies upon Nb-doping, which indicates that the good thermal stability of SrBi4Ti4O15 does not deteriorate after Nb addition.
