Using the first-principles method, the ferroelectric dipole moments for pure BaTiO3 and Ba(Zr, Ti)O3supercells are studied. All possible ion configurations of Ba Zr0.5Ti0.5O3 and Ba Zr0.25Ti0.75O3 are constructed in a 2 × 2 × 2 supercell. For the half-substituted case, divergence of ferroelectric properties is found from these structures, which greatly depends on the arrangements of Ti and Zr ions. Thus our results provide a reasonable explanation to the relaxor behavior of Ba(Zr, Ti)O3. In addition, a model based on the thermal statistics gives the averaged polarization for Ba(Zr, Ti)O3, which depends on the temperature of synthesis. Our result is helpful to understand and tune the relaxor ferroelectricity of lead-free Ba(Zr, Ti)O3.展开更多

The effect of (Ba+Sr)/Ti ratio deviating from the stoichiometry on microstructure, grain growth, dielectric and tunable properties of BST thin films were investigated. TiO2 and (Ba,Sr)2TiO4 were found as a second phase at the ratios of 0.76 and 1.33, respectively. The variation of the ratio reveals more significant effect on the grain size in B-site rich samples than that in A-site rich samples. The dissipation factor decreases rapidly from 0.1 to 0.01 at 1 MHz with decreasing (Ba+Sr)/Ti ratio. The tunability increases with decreasing ratio from 1.33 to 1.05, and then decreases with decreasing ratio from 1.05 to 0.76. The film with (Ba+Sr)/Ti ratio of 1.05 has a maximum tunability of 32% and a dissipation factor of 0.03 at 1 MHz.展开更多

文摘Ba(Zr, Ti)O3is a lead-free relaxor ferroelectric. Using the first-principles method, the ferroelectric dipole moments for pure BaTiO3 and Ba(Zr, Ti)O3supercells are studied. All possible ion configurations of Ba Zr0.5Ti0.5O3 and Ba Zr0.25Ti0.75O3 are constructed in a 2 × 2 × 2 supercell. For the half-substituted case, divergence of ferroelectric properties is found from these structures, which greatly depends on the arrangements of Ti and Zr ions. Thus our results provide a reasonable explanation to the relaxor behavior of Ba(Zr, Ti)O3. In addition, a model based on the thermal statistics gives the averaged polarization for Ba(Zr, Ti)O3, which depends on the temperature of synthesis. Our result is helpful to understand and tune the relaxor ferroelectricity of lead-free Ba(Zr, Ti)O3.
