Abstract

In this work, we design and adjust the composition in [Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text] lead-free relaxor ferroelectrics by doping SnO2 to introduce a relaxor phase and accordingly obtain prominent lead-free electrostrictors. It was found that all the samples exhibited ideal features of relaxor ferroelectrics and the ferroelectric-relaxor phase transition temperature of the ceramics was adjusted to near or below room temperature after doping with a handful of [Formula: see text]. A relatively high electrostrictive coefficient [Formula: see text] of 0.0293 m4/C2 was achieved for the composition with [Formula: see text], which was attributed to the formation of relaxor pseudocubic phase developed by the [Formula: see text] substitution. These results provide some instructive thoughts for the further development of [Formula: see text]-based electrostrictive materials by B-site doping.
