Psr. Sastry et al., DIELECTRIC STUDIES OF LAYER STRUCTURED SODIUM - CALCIUM BISMUTH TITANATE MIXED CERAMICS, INDIAN JOURNAL OF ENGINEERING AND MATERIALS SCIENCES, 5(2), 1998, pp. 83-87
Dielectric properties have been studied on ferroelectric mixed ceramic
s comprising bismuth compounds with layer structure (NaBi)(0.5x) Ca1-x
Bi4Ti4 O-15 with x = 0,0.1;0.3,0.5,0.7 and 1. The properties have bee
n measured as a function of frequency and temperature in the ranges 1
kHz-10 MHz between 35-620 degrees C. AC conductivity is calculated usi
ng dielectric constant and loss tangents. Distortion of the Octahedra
of the perovskite layers along polarisation axis could be contributing
to the spontaneous polarisation.
