Abstract: | Bismuth potassium titanate (Bi1/2K1/2)TiO3-based relaxor ferroelectrics are promising materials for high-energy-density ceramic capacitors. Herein, we compare the microstructure and energy-storage properties of (Bi1/2K1/2)0.5Sr0.5TiO3 (BKST50) ceramics fabricated via two different routes: solid-state and hydrothermal reactions. A BKST50 fine powder composed of well-dispersed cubic nanoparticles was obtained via the hydrothermal reaction, whereas the conventional solid-state reaction resulted in the aggregation of primary particles. The grain size of the ceramics prepared from the hydrothermal powder could be controlled between 273 ± 24 and 936 ± 69 nm while maintaining a relative density of over 95% by simply varying the sintering temperature. On the other hand, ceramics prepared via the solid-state reaction could not be fully densified even at 1200 °C (the highest tested sintering temperature). The hydrothermally derived ceramics withstood higher electric field owing to dense and fine-grained microstructure, leading to a high recoverable energy-storage density of 2.25 J cm?3 at 240 kV cm?1. |
