Abstract

Dense Bi3.15Nd0.85Ti3O12 (BNdT) ceramics of a layered perovskite structure were sintered at 1100 °C by solid state reaction. Ferroelectric domains were probably observed in plate-shaped grains. The BNdT ceramics exhibit saturated ferroelectric hysteresis loops with a remanent polarization (2Pr) of 45μC∕cm2 and a coercive field of 67.6kV∕cm. The dielectric constant and dissipation factor of the ceramics at 100 kHz are 221 and 0.0064, respectively. A broad dielectric peak was observed around 408 °C, and it might come from the oxygen-vacancy-related dielectric relaxation. The leakage current density of the ceramics is less than 7.5×10−7A∕cm2 under an applied field below 239kV∕cm. The BNdT ceramics show Schottky emission behavior under low electric field below 75kV∕cm.
