Abstract
The dielectric behavior of the Bi-layered perovskite oxides Sr2Bi4Ti5O18 and Pb2Bi4Ti5O18 with five perovskite-like units (m=5) was studied. A new anomaly was found at T1=428 K for Sr2Bi4Ti5O18 and 480 K for Pb2Bi4Ti5O18, in addition to the previously reported phase transition at Tc. The dielectric constant does not show the Curie–Weiss behavior in both Sr2Bi4Ti5O18 and Pb2Bi4Ti5O18 crystals: the anomaly around Tc is diffuse and broad, whereas those at T1 are clearly shoulderlike. These two isomorphous layered-oxide ferroelectrics undergo a new intermediate phase transition at T1. The transition temperatures show a linear dependence on the ionic radii of A-site ions in these layered perovskites.
