Abstract
This work studied the effect of composition and temperature on the switching electric field induced antiferroelectric to ferroelectric phase transition in Nb modified Pb(Zr,Sn,Ti)O3 antiferroelectric ceramics, measured the relation between switching field and composition y(Ti), both the antiferroelectric-ferroelectric phase boundaries before and after poling in Pb0.99Nb0.02((Zr0.80Sn0.20) 1-yTiy)0.98O3 family. Measurement results showed that the switching field strength of some y(Ti) was dependent on the change from that of antiferroelectric-ferroelectric phase boundary. The backward switching field EA was fixed while the forward switching field EF and hysteresis ΔE were dropped when increasing temperature. This phenomenon indicated that temperature increase is beneficial to the reduction of strain energy so as to make the antiferroelectric-ferroelectric phase transition easier. Hence we could make use of electric polarization by heating to lower the electric field.
