Abstract
This work reports the influence of sintering temperature on structure, microstructure and piezoelectric properties of 0.48 Ba(Zr[Formula: see text]Ti[Formula: see text])O3–0.52 (Ba[Formula: see text]Ca[Formula: see text])TiO3(BZT–BCT) doped with ZnO nanoparticle ceramics manufactured by a conventional solid state reaction method. By increasing sintering temperature, the piezoelectric behaviors were improved and rose up to the best parameters at a sintering temperature of 1450[Formula: see text]C ([Formula: see text] pC/N and [Formula: see text]). The corresponding properties of undoped BZT–BCT ceramics were investigated as a comparison. The received results show that the sintering behavior and piezo-parameters of doped BZT–BCT samples are better than the undoped BZT–BCT samples at each sintering temperature.
