Abstract: | The effects of sintering temperature and the addition of CuO on the microstructure and piezoelectric properties of 0.95(K0.5Na0.5)NbO3-0.05Li(Nb0.5Sb0.5)O3 were investigated. The KNN-5LNS ceramics doped with CuO were well sintered even at 940 °C. A small amount of Cu2+ was incorporated into the KNN-5LNS matrix ceramics and XRD patterns suggested that the Cu2+ ion could enter the A or B site of the perovskite unit cell and replace the Nb5+ or Li+ simultaneously. The study also showed that the introduction of CuO effectively reduced the sintering temperature and improved the electrical properties of KNN-5LNS. The high piezoelectric properties of d33 = 263 pC/N, kp = 0.42, Qm = 143 and tan δ = 0.024 were obtained from the 0.4 mol% CuO doped KNN-5LNS ceramics sintered at 980 °C for 2 h. |
