Abstract
In this paper, studies of structural, microstructural and electrical properties of calcium, tin, and selenium modified bismuth sodium titanate (Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3) compound with a general chemical formula (Bi0.45Na0.45Ca0.1) (Ti0.9Sn0.05 Se0.05) O3, synthesized by a high-temperature mixed oxide reaction method, have been discussed. Analysis of room temperature X-ray diffraction data confirms the formation of perovskite single-phase compound with rhombohedral symmetry. The surface morphology of the sample exhibits the uniform distribution of grains of varying size. Studies of the electrical parameters (dielectric, impedance and conductivity) of the material, collected at various temperatures (75–375 °C) in a wide frequency range (1 kHz–1MHz) have provided its conduction and relaxation behavior. The electric field dependent current density (J-E) characteristics suggest the Ohmic behavior while the field dependent polarization (P-E loop) confirms the ferroelectric nature of the studied material.
