Abstract

The dielectric and energy-storage performance of (1-x)BaTiO3(BT)-xBi(Zn2/3Nb1/3)O3(BZN) [0 ≤ x ≤ 0.15] materials are presented in this manuscript for potential multilayer ceramic capacitor application. The solid-state reaction method is adapted for the preparation of the ceramics. X-ray diffraction patterns of the ceramics reveal the formation of pure perovskite pseudo-cubic structure with space group P m −3 m. Temperature and frequency-dependent dielectric behavior are analyzed to understand the change in dielectric performance with the rise in BZN concentration. The degree of diffuseness in the phase transition has been analyzed by using the modified Curie-Weiss Law. The temperature Coefficient of Capacitance (TCC) has been calculated to analyze the thermal stability of the material. The P-E hysteresis loop measurement has been carried out at different applied fields and found that 0.15 mol% of BT-BZN can withstand maximum electric field exposure without undergoing any electrical breakdown. The energy storage efficiency is calculated for all the compositions and maximum efficiency is obtained for x = 0.15. The frequency-dependent P-E hysteresis is carried out and frequency stability of polarization is obtained for 0.85BT-0.15 BZN ceramic.
