Abstract
Heterophase structures in lead-free perovskite-type ferroelectric solid solutions of (1 − z)(Na0.5Bi0.5)TiO3 − zBaTiO3 are analysed for a few critical compositions near the morphotropic phase boundary (z = 0.05−0.07). Examples of the phase coexistence and elastic matching of the phases from different symmetry groups are considered to find optimum volume fractions of specific domain types and coexisting phases at the complete stress relief in two-phase samples. Some interrelations between these volume fractions are described using variants of the domain arrangement at changes in the composition and unit-cell parameters. The evaluated room-temperature volume fractions of the ferroelectric monoclinic (Cm symmetry) and tetragonal (P4mm symmetry) phases near the morphotropic phase boundary are in agreement with experimental data.
