Lead-free ferroelectric ceramics are widely researched today for industrial applications as sensors, actuators and transducers. Since $Pb(Zr_aTi_{1-a})O_3$-(PZT) has high Curie temperature($T_C$), high piezoelectric properties near its morphotropic phase boundary(MPB) composition and small temperature dependence electrical behavior, it has been used to commercial materials for wide temperature range and different application fields. According to the tolerance factor concept, since the $Bi^{3+}$ cation with 12-fold coordinate has a smaller ionic radius than 12-fold coordinate $Pb^{2+}$, most bismuth based perovskites possess a smaller tolerance factor. Therefore, MPBs with a higher $T_C$ may be expected in $Bi(Me^{3+})O_3PbTiO_3$ solid solutions. As in lead based perovskite systems, it is clear that we need to explore more materials in simple or complex bismuth based MPB systems. The objective of this study is to investigate the $Bi(Ni_{1_a}X_a)O_3-PbTiO_3(X=Ti^{4+},\;Nb^{5+})$ perovskite solid-solution. For improving the electronic conduction problem, the magnesium and manganese modified system was also studied.

In this study, the structural, dielectric and piezielectric properities of $xPb(Mg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3-(0.5-x)Pb(Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3-0.5Pb(Zr_{0.3}Ti_{0.7})O_3$ ceramics were investigated with the substitution of $PbMg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3}O_3$. The results showed that the substitution of the $PbMg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3}O_3$ was effective in increasing the dielectric constant and electromechanical coupling factor $(K_p)$. The dielectric constant, dielectric loss and Kp showed the highest values of 4293, 2.4%, 0.59 relatively, when the substitution of amount of $PbMg_{1/3}Nb_{2/3}O_3$ was 5 mol%.

In this paper, for the application of ultrasonic cleaners for cleaning dentures and transparent braces, Pb(Mn_1/3Nb_2/3)O₃-Pb(Ni_1/3 Nb_2/3)O₃-Pb(Zr,Ti)O₃ [PMN-PNN-PZT] system ceramics were manufactured and their dielectric and piezoelectric properties were investigated. Overall the best properties suitable for the device applications such as ultrasonic cleaner were obtained from the ceramics sintered at 920℃: bulk density of 7.8 g/cm³, the dielectric constant (ε_r) of 1,689, piezoelectric charge constant (d₃₃) of 433 pC/N, planar electromechanical coupling factor (k_p) of 0.64, mechanical quality factor (Qm) of 835, S₁₁^E of 13.37 (10^-12 N/m²), and Curie temperature of 315℃ By using the physical properties of this composition, the ultrasonic cleaner was designed and simulated using the commercial ATILA software. For the three-layered ceramics with the dimension of 25 mm × 25 mm × 2.5mm, an excellent displacement of 8.998 10^-3 m) and the sound pressure of 147.68 dB were recorded.

RAINBOW(Reduced And Internally Biased Oxide Wafers) are a new class of high-displacement, piezoelectric actuator produced by selectively removing oxygen from one surface of ceramic using a high-temperature chemical reduction process. In this paper, RAINBOW actuator materials of $0.4Pb(Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3-0.6Pb(Zr_{x}Ti_{1-x})O_3$ ceramics were prepared. Its dielectric and piezoelectric properties were investigated in the vicinity of MPB. The piezoelectric properties showed the maximum value of ${\epsilon}r$ = 4871, $d_{33}$ = 610 ($10^{-12}$ m/V), $d_{31}$ = -299 ($10^{-12}$ m/V), $k_{33}$ = $71\%$, Qm = 70, in $0.4Pb(Ni_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_{3}-0.6Pb(Zr_{405}Ti_{595})O_3$ composition sintered at $1250^{\circ}C$. The strain - electric field characteristics of RAINBOW actuator were significantly improved comparison with the conventional bulk actuator. The prepared RAINBOW actuator showed about $390\;{\mu}m/100\;V$ displacement.

에너지 하베스터에 적용 가능한 $0.72Pb(Zr_{0.47}Ti_{0.53})O_3-0.28Pb((Ni_{0.55}Zn_{0.45})_{1/3}Nb_{2/3})O_3$ (PPZNN) 후막세라믹의 구조적 압전 특성을 조사하였다. $850^{\circ}C$에서 하소를 마친 파우더를 72시간 볼 밀링 처리한 후, 테잎 캐스팅 공정을 이용하여 0.3mm의 두께로 PPZNN 압전 세라믹을 제조하였다. $900^{\circ}C$에서 $1200^{\circ}C$까지 다양한 온도에 소결하여 온도가 증가될수록 정방형 구조로 상전이 거동하는 모습을 보였으며, 특히 $1050^{\circ}C$에서 소결된 PPZNN후막 세라믹은 이차상이 없는 고밀도의 미세구조가 관찰되었다. $d_{33}$=440 pC/N 그리고 kp = 0.46의 우수한 압전 특성을 보였으며, 에너지 변환 성능을 나타내는 $d33{\cdot}g33$ 값은 약 $20439{\times}10^{-15}\;m^2/N$ 로 매우 우수하였다. PPZNN후막 세라믹을 유니몰프 켄틸레버 형태로 제작하여 발전 평가하였을 때 저항이 470 $k{\Omega}$에서 969 ${\mu}W$ (4930 ${\mu}W/cm^3$)로 관찰되었다. PPZNN 후막 압전 세라믹은 향후 압전에너지 하베스터 소재로 다양한 응용분야에 사용될 것으로 예상된다.

The quartemary system ceramics 0.5[xPb(Zn$_{1}$3/Nb$_{2}$3/)O$_{3}$-(1-x)Pb(Ni$_{1}$3/Nb$_{2}$3/)O$_{3}$]-0.5[yPbTiO$_{3}$-(1-y) PbZrO$_{3}$ for piezoelectric actuators were prepared bv the were added to the raw materials up to 5 mole. Sintering temperature was varied form 1000.deg. C to 1200.deg. C. Sintering characteristrics, dielectric and piezoelectric properties were then investigated. Piezoelectric properties of sample prepared by the molten salt method were improved compared to those prepared by the conventional method. Addition of PZN shifted morphotropic phase boundary to more Zr-rich composition and decreased the piezoelectric properties.
