Abstract

The current research focuses on the role of oxygen partial pressure on structure and phase transitions of (1-x)Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-xPbTiO3 with x = 0.28 (PMN-28PT). The changes in oxygen content have been traced through weight gain/loss during 160 cycles between 250 and 300 °C. The structural phase transitions have been investigated by in-situ high temperature powder X-ray diffraction and high temperature Raman spectroscopy. The variations in oxygen content in PMN-28PT result in structural changes and have a significant effect on electrical impedance. It is suggested that bonding between oxygen and Ti and Pb atoms in the perovskite structure of PMN-28PT can be controlled by low oxygen partial pressure heat treatment.
