Abstract

The Nd doped 0.942(Na 0.53K 0.47) NbO 3-0.058LiNbO 3 (KNNLN) lead-free piezoceramics were prepared by the solid reaction method. The structure, phase transition and electrical properties were studied by XRD, infrared spectra and Raman spectra. The results show that the single phase perovskite is dominant in these samples. The continuous change of the bond of NbO 6 is closely related to B-site Nd substitution in KNNLN. The successive phase transitions from tetragonal to orthorhombic, and then to cubic are observed in Nd doped KNNLN ceramics. The piezoelectric constant (d 33) and dielectric constant (ε r) are significantly improved by Nd doping due to the appearance of phase coexistence zone. The highest d 33 of 128 pC/N appears in 2% Nd doped ceramics and its dielectric constant ε r is 694. In contrast, the values of d 33 and ε r of undoped KNNLN are 87 pC/N and 545, respectively.
