Abstract
Dielectric ceramics with outstanding energy-storage performances are nowadays in great demand for pulsed power electronic systems. Here, we propose a synergistic design strategy to significantly enhance the energy-storage properties of (1 - x)(0.94Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3-0.06BaTiO3)-xCaTi0.75Ta0.2O3 solid solution ceramics through introducing polar nanoregions, shifting rhombohedral to tetragonal phase transition below room temperature (stable antiferroelectric characteristic), as well as increasing the band gap in the system. Ultrahigh energy-storage properties with a record value of recoverable energy-storage density Wrec ∼ 9.55 J/cm3 and a high efficiency η ∼ 88% are achieved in Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3-based bulk ceramics with x = 0.24. Moreover, high Wrec (>3.4 J/cm3) and η (>90%) with a variation of less than 6% can be observed in a wide frequency and temperature frequency range of 5-200 Hz and 25-140 °C. Our research result not only indicates the great possibility of Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3-based lead-free compositions to replace lead-based energy-storage ceramics but also gives an effective strategy to design ultrahigh energy-storage performances for eco-friendly ceramics.
