The relationship among dielectric anomaly, ferroelectric response, defects, and microstructures was established for (KNa)LiNbSbO (x = 0.04, 0.00, -0.02, -0.04 and -0.08) ceramics. For x = -0.02 and -0.04, larger coercive fields and lower remnant polarizations were obtained; besides, an additional dielectric relaxation behavior was observed with the activation energy E being about 2.19 eV and 1.92 eV, respectively. Furthermore, the grain and grain boundary contributions to the capacitance were separated using impedance spectroscopy, which, combined with back-scattering characterization, firmly indicates the core-shell structure of K-deficient samples (x = -0.02 and -0.04). Unlike the cores, the shells possess a large amount of K vacancies (). This work paves a way for regulating the fine structure and more on the electrical properties of KNN-based materials.
对于(KNa)LiNbSbO(x = 0.04、0.00、-0.02、-0.04和-0.08)陶瓷,建立了介电异常、铁电响应、缺陷和微观结构之间的关系。对于x = -0.02和-0.04,获得了更大的矫顽场和更低的剩余极化;此外,还观察到一种额外的介电弛豫行为,其激活能E分别约为2.19 eV和1.92 eV。此外,使用阻抗谱分离了晶粒和晶界对电容的贡献,结合背散射表征,有力地表明了缺钾样品(x = -0.02和-0.04)的核壳结构。与核不同,壳层具有大量的钾空位()。这项工作为调控基于KNN材料的精细结构及其更多电学性质铺平了道路。
