Abstract
Microstructural characteristics of the Complex Perovskite (1-x) $(Li_{1/2}Sm_{1/2})TiO_3-x (Na_{1/2}Sm_{1/2})TiO_3$ (LNST) system have been investigated using the transmission electron microscopy (TEM). When $0.0{\leq}x{\leq}0.6$, the vacancy ordering forming the 1/2 (001) superlattice reflections due to the A-site cation deficiencies has apperaed. It could be confirmed by presence of ABPs. But it was difficult to form the vacancy ordering since vacancy concentration gradually lowered as the amount of the substituted Li ions decrease. Antiphase boundaries (APBs) were presented in microstructures of LNST when $0.8{\leq}x{\leq}1.0$. It was considered that these boundaries were caused by the 1:1 chemical ordering of A-site cations, Na and Sm ions. LNST had not only the antiphase tilting of oxygen octahedron but also the inphase tilting of oxygen octahedron and the antiparallel shift of cations all of them. It could be confirmed by presence of ferroelastic domains
복합페로브스카이트 (1-x) $(Li_{1/2}Sm_{1/2})TiO_3-x (Na_{1/2}Sm_{1/2})TiO_3$ (LNST)의 미세구조를 TEM으로 관찰하였다. $0.0{\leq}x{\leq}0.6$ LNST에서는 A-site 양이온의 결핍에 의한 1/2 (001) 초격자 회절점을 형성하는 vacancy ordering을 갖고 있으며 이는 APB로 확인할 수 있었다. 그러나 x가 증가함에 따라 Li 이온의 양이 적어져서 vacancy ordering 을 만들기 어렵게 된다. $0.8{\leq}x{\leq}1.0$ 조성의 LNST의 미세구조에서도 APB가 관찰되었는데 이는 A-site에서 Na와 Sm 이온간의 1:1 chemical ordering에 의한 것으로 사료된다. LNST 전 조성에서 산소팔면체의 anti-phase tilting과 in-phase tilting 그리고 A-site 양이온의 antiparallel shift가 관찰되었는데, 이들은 ferroelastic domain으로 확인할 수 있었다.
