Abstract

Single phase ceramic samples of new compounds (1 − x)(K0.5Na0.5)NbO3−xLa(Ag0.5Sb0.5)O3 (x = 0–0.15), modified by metal oxide additives ZnO, CuO, and MnO2, are prepared via a solid state reaction. The crystal structure, microstructure, and dielectric and ferroelectric properties of the samples are studied. It is established that a phase with a perovskite structure and an orthorhombic unit cell formed in each sample. Ferroelectric phase transitions are confirmed via dielectric spectroscopy. Generation of the second harmonic is observed, along with a drop in the temperature of transitions from the ferroelectric orthorhombic phase to the ferroelectric tetragonal phase, and then to the cubic paraelectric phase.
