Abstract

Temperature dependent X-ray diffraction (XRD) and dielectric properties of perovskite Ba(Zr[Formula: see text]Ti[Formula: see text]O3ceramic prepared using a standard solid-state reaction process is presented. Along with phase transitions at low temperature, a new phase transition at high temperature (873[Formula: see text]C at 20[Formula: see text]Hz), diffusive in character has been found where the lattice structure changes from monoclinic (space group: [Formula: see text] to hexagonal (space group: [Formula: see text]). This result places present ceramic in the list of potential candidate for intended high temperature applications. The AC conductivity data followed hopping type charge conduction and supports jump relaxation model. The experimental value of [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]pC/N was found. The dependence of polarization and strain on electric field at room temperature suggested that lead-free Ba(Zr[Formula: see text]Ti[Formula: see text]O3is a promising material for electrostrictive applications.
