Strontium iron holmium niobate (Sr(Fe1 - xHox)(0.5)Nb0.5O3) ceramics were synthesized via a solid-state reaction technique. The undoped ceramic showed an orthorhombic phase, but it transformed to a pseudocubic phase for higher Ho concentrations. A low solubility limit of Ho in SFN caused a formation of second phase for the x=0.15 ceramic. Dielectric behavior of undoped ceramic exhibited high dielectric constant over a wide temperature range. However, the doping shifted this region to a higher temperature. The doping also shifted the peak of dielectric loss to a higher temperature. Activation energy of dielectric relaxation increased with increasing Ho concentration. In addition, complex impedance analysis was applied to determine the behaviors of grain boundary and grain after doping. (C) 2012 Elsevier Ltd and Techna Group S.r.l. All rights reserved.
