In the present work, Ba(Ni_(1/3)Nb_(2/3))O_(3) ceramic is taken as a typicalexample for ordered domain engineering, in which the sintering temperature lies above the order-disorder transition temperature. Though the well-ordered structure could not be obtained in as-sintered samples, high ordering degree could be achieved together with preferred ordered domainstructures in Ba(Ni_(1/3)Nb_(2/3))O_(3) ceramics through long-time annealing, and subsequently the physicalproperties such as electrical resistivity, thermal conductivity, dielectric strength and energy storagedensity are significantly enhanced, where the ordering degree, ordered domain structure and ordereddomain boundary play the critical rules. The present work provides an effective approach for developingcomplex perovskite dielectric ceramics with superior physical properties.展开更多
