Structure, optical and magnetic properties of new Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3- SrMnO3-? solid solution materials.

ABSTRACT: The new Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3-SrMnO3-? solid solution materials were fabricated via sol-gel method. The random incorporation of Sr and Mn cations into host lattice of Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 resulted in structural distortion and influenced on the reduction of the optical band gap from 3.07?eV to 1.81?eV for pure Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 and 9?mol% SrMnO3-? solid solution into Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3. The magnetic properties of Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 materials at room temperature were tuned via compensation of diamagnetic material with weak-ferromagnetism to ferromagnetism with low SrMnO3-? content and combination of paramagnetism/antiferromagnetism-like and ferromagnetism with higher SrMnO3-? content solid solution in Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3. The tunable magnetic and optical properties of lead-free ferroelectric materials was promising for their application to green electronic devices.

Intrinsic and tunable ferromagnetism in Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 through CaFeO3-δ modification.

Project description:New (1-x)Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 + xCaFeO3-δ solid solution compounds were fabricated using a sol-gel method. The CaFeO3-δ materials were mixed into host Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 materials to form a solid solution that exhibited similar crystal symmetry to those of Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 phases. The random distribution of Ca and Fe cations in the Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 crystals resulted in a distorted structure. The optical band gaps decreased from 3.11 eV for the pure Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 samples to 2.34 eV for the 9 mol% CaFeO3-δ-modified Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 samples. Moreover, the Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 samples exhibited weak photoluminescence because of the intrinsic defects and suppressed photoluminescence with increasing CaFeO3-δ concentration. Experimental and theoretical studies via density functional theory calculations showed that pure Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 exhibited intrinsic ferromagnetism, which is associated with the possible presence of Bi, Na, and Ti vacancies and Ti3+-defect states. Further studies showed that such an induced magnetism by intrinsic defects can also be enhanced effectively with CaFeO3-δ addition. This study provides a basis for understanding the role of secondary phase as a solid solution in Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 to facilitate the development of lead-free ferroelectric materials.

A Novel Highly Sensitive NO2 Sensor Based on Perovskite Na0.5+xBi0.5TiO3-δ Electrolyte.

Project description:NOx is one of dangerous air pollutants, and the demands for reliable sensors to detect NOx are extremely urgent recently. Conventional fluorite-phase YSZ used for NOx sensor requires higher operating temperature to obtain desirable oxygen ion conductivity. In this work, perovskite-phase Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 (NBT) oxygen conductor was chosen as the solid electrolyte to fabricate a novel highly sensitive NO2 sensor with CuO as the sensing electrode and Pt as reference electrode. Na dopped Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 greatly improved the sensing performance of this sensor. The optimal sensor based on Na0.51Bi0.50TiO3-δ exhibited good response-recovery characteristics to NO2 and the response current values were almost linear to NO2 concentrations in the range of 50-500 ppm at 400-600 °C. The response current value towards NO2 reached maximum 11.23 μA at 575 °C and the value on NO2 is much higher than other gases (CH4, C2H4, C3H6, C3H8, CO), indicating good selectivity for detecting NO2. The response signals of the sensor were slightly affected by coexistent O2 varying from 2 to 21 vol% at 575 °C. The response current value decreased only 4.9% over 2 months, exhibiting the potential application in motor vehicles.

Monoclinic distortion, polarization rotation and piezoelectricity in the ferroelectric Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3.

Project description:The relationship between crystal structure and physical properties in the ferroelectric Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 (NBT) has been of interest for the last two decades. Originally, the average structure was held to be of rhombohedral (R3c) symmetry with a fixed polarization direction. This has undergone a series of revisions, however, based on high-resolution X-ray diffraction, total neutron scattering, and optical and electron microscopy. The recent experimental findings suggest that the true average symmetry is monoclinic (space group Cc), which allows for a rotatable spontaneous polarization. Neither polarization rotation nor its potentially important real role in enhanced piezoelectricity is well understood. The present work describes an in situ investigation of the average monoclinic distortion in NBT by time-resolved single-crystal X-ray diffraction under external electric fields. The study presents a high-resolution inspection of the characteristic diffraction features of the monoclinic distortion - splitting of specific Bragg reflections - and their changes under a cyclic electric field. The results favour a model in which there is direct coupling between the shear monoclinic strain and the polarization rotation. This suggests that the angle of polarization rotation under a sub-coercive electric field could be 30° or more.

Local disorder in Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3-piezoceramic determined by 3D electron diffuse scattering.

Project description:Local structural distortions in Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3-based solid solutions have been proved to play a crucial role in understanding and tuning their enhanced piezoelectric properties near the morphotropic phase boundary. In this work all local structural disorders in a lead-free ternary system, namely 85%Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3-10%Bi0.5K0.5TiO3-5%BaTiO3, were mapped in reciprocal space by 3D electron diffraction. Furthermore, a comprehensive model of the local disorder was developed by analysing the intensity and morphology of the observed weak diffuse scattering. We found that the studied ceramics consists of plate-like in-phase oxygen octahedral nanoscale domains randomly distributed in an antiphase tilted matrix. In addition, A-site chemical short-range order of Na/Bi and polar displacements contribute to different kinds of diffuse scattering. The proposed model explains all the observed diffraction features and offers insight into the ongoing controversy over the nature of local structural distortions in Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3-based solid solutions.

Boosting the Humidity Performances of Na0.5BixTiO3 by Tuning Bi Content.

Project description:In the field of humidity sensors, a major challenge is how to improve the sensing performance of existing materials. Based on our previous work on Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3, a facile strategy of tuning the Bi content in the material was proposed to improve its sensing performance. Na0.5BixTiO3 (x = 0.3, 0.35, 0.4, 0.45) nanocomposites were synthesized by a hydrothermal method. Humidity sensing properties of these nanocomposites were investigated in the relative humidity range of 11% to 95%. Our results show that, compared to the sensor based on nominally pure sample (Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3), the sensor based on Na0.5Bi0.35TiO3 exhibits boosted sensing performance of excellent linear humidity response in the humidity range of 11-75% relative humidity, lower hysteresis value, and faster response/recovery time. The improvement of the sensing performance was argued to be the reason that the proper reduction in Bi content leads to a minimum value of oxygen-vacancy concentrations, thereby weakening the chemical adsorption but enhancing the physical adsorption. These results indicate that the proper underdose of the Bi content in Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 can greatly boost the sensing performance.

Interfacial Oxygen Octahedral Coupling-Driven Robust Ferroelectricity in Epitaxial Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 Thin Films.

Project description:The oxygen octahedral rotation (OOR) forms fundamental atomic distortions and symmetries in perovskite oxides and definitely determines their properties and functionalities. Therefore, epitaxial strain and interfacial structural coupling engineering have been developed to modulate the OOR patterns and explore novel properties, but it is difficult to distinguish the 2 mechanisms. Here, different symmetries are induced in Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 (NBT) epitaxial films by interfacial oxygen octahedral coupling rather than epitaxial strain. The NBT film grown on the Nb:SrTiO3 substrate exhibits a paraelectric tetragonal phase, while with La0.5Sr0.5MnO3 as a buffer layer, a monoclinic phase and robust ferroelectricity are obtained, with a remanent polarization of 42 μC cm-2 and a breakdown strength of 7.89 MV cm-1, which are the highest record among NBT-based films. Moreover, the interfacial oxygen octahedral coupling effect is demonstrated to propagate to the entire thickness of the film, suggesting an intriguing long-range effect. This work provides a deep insight into understanding the structure modulation in perovskite heterostructures and an important avenue for achieving unique functionalities.

Enhanced Energy Storage Performance in Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3-Based Relaxor Ferroelectric Ceramics via Compositional Tailoring.

Project description:Owing to the high power density, excellent operational stability and fast charge/discharge rate, and environmental friendliness, the lead-free Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 (NBT)-based relaxor ferroelectrics exhibit great potential in pulsed power capacitors. Herein, novel lead-free (1-x)(0.7Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3-0.3Sr0.7Bi0.2TiO3)-xBi(Mg0.5Zr0.5)O3 (NBT-SBT-xBMZ) relaxor ferroelectric ceramics were successfully fabricated using a solid-state reaction method and designed via compositional tailoring. The microstructure, dielectric properties, ferroelectric properties, and energy storage performance were investigated. The results indicate that appropriate Bi(Mg0.5Zr0.5)O3 content can effectively enhance the relaxor ferroelectric characteristics and improve the dielectric breakdown strength by forming fine grain sizes and diminishing oxygen vacancy concentrations. Therefore, the optimal Wrec of 6.75 J/cm3 and a η of 79.44% were simultaneously obtained in NBT-SBT-0.15BMZ at 20 °C and 385 kV/cm. Meanwhile, thermal stability (20-180 °C) and frequency stability (1-200 Hz) associated with the ultrafast discharge time of ~49.1 ns were also procured in the same composition, providing a promising material system for applications in power pulse devices.

Topology and temperature dependence of the diffuse X-ray scattering in Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 ferroelectric single crystals.

Project description:The results of high-resolution measurements of the diffuse X-ray scattering produced by a perovskite-based Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 ferroelectric single crystal between 40 and 620 K are reported. The study was designed as an attempt to resolve numerous controversies regarding the average structure of Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3, such as the mechanism of the phase transitions between the tetragonal, P4bm, and rhombohedral | monoclinic, R3c | Cc, space groups and the correlation between structural changes and macroscopic physical properties. The starting point was to search for any transformations of structural disorder in the temperature range of thermal depoling (420-480 K), where the average structure is known to remain unchanged. The intensity distribution around the {032} pseudocubic reflection was collected using a PILATUS 100K detector at the I16 beamline of the Diamond Light Source (UK). The data revealed previously unknown features of the diffuse scattering, including a system of dual asymmetric L-shaped diffuse scattering streaks. The topology, temperature dependence, and relationship between Bragg and diffuse intensities suggest the presence of complex microstructure in the low-temperature R3c | Cc phase. This microstructure may be formed by the persistence of the higher-temperature P4bm phase, built into a lower-temperature R3c | Cc matrix, accompanied by the related long-range strain fields. Finally, it is shown that a correlation between the temperature dependence of the X-ray scattering features and the temperature regime of thermal depoling is present.

A new strategy for large-scale synthesis of Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 nanowires and their application in piezocatalytic degradation.

Project description:Developing new techniques that can synthesize one-dimensional piezoelectric materials on a large scale is of great significance for boosting piezocatalytic applications. In this work, we proposed a high-efficiency template hydrothermal method for large-scale synthesis of piezoelectric Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 (NBT) nanowires. By ion-exchange with Bi3+, Na2Ti3O7 template nanowires can be easily and entirely transformed to NBT. The piezocatalytic activity of the NBT nanowires was thoroughly investigated with respect to their capability to degrade typical organic pollutants, including Rhodamine B, methylene blue, methyl orange, tetracycline hydrochloride, phenol, and bisphenol A. The NBT nanowires exhibited the highest efficiency in piezocatalytic degradation of Rhodamine B, which was completely decomposed within 80 min (rate constant ∼0.0575 min-1). The electron spin resonance spin-trapping technique and active species capture experiments were employed to characterize free radicals. The present work is advantageous for the high yield of NBT nanowires and the excellent piezocatalytic performance. The reported template hydrothermal method can potentially be extended to the synthesis of other perovskite nanowires.

High-Temperature Dielectric Relaxation and Electric Conduction Mechanisms in a LaCoO3-Modified Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 System.

Project description:This research study examines the high-temperature dielectric relaxation and electric conduction mechanisms in (x)LaCoO3-(1 - x)Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 samples, where x is 0.05, 0.10, and 0.15. The findings demonstrate that all the samples exhibit two dielectric transitions: first, a frequency-dispersive shoulder at a lower temperature (Ts) around 425-450 K, which is associated with polar nanoregions (PNRs), and second, from ferroelectric to paraelectric transition at the Curie temperature (Tc) approximately between 580 and 650 K. The impedance analysis reveals the negative temperature coefficient of resistance behavior of the specimens. The broad and asymmetric relaxation peaks obtained from modulus spectroscopy demonstrate a wide range of relaxations, suggesting non-Debye-type behavior. Furthermore, the conductivity studies provide insights into understanding the transport phenomena in the samples. The oxygen vacancies resulting from the addition of LaCoO3 into the Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 ceramics are responsible for the relaxation and conduction processes, and the charge carrier is doubly ionized oxygen ion vacancies. All samples except for LCNBT10 at 1 kHz exhibit a negative magnetodielectric response.
