The phase diagram of the novel ferroelectric relaxor, xBi(Zn2/3Nb1/3)O-3-(1 - x)BaTiO3 (BZN-BT), was determined for the first time using high-resolution X-ray and neutron diffraction techniques. The study identified composition-dependent effects and temperature-dependent phase transitions for different compositions of the BZN-BT system.
The first determination of the phase diagram of the novel ferroelectric relaxor xBi(Zn2/3Nb1/3)O-3-(1 - x)BaTiO3 (BZN-BT) has been achieved with a combination of high-resolution X-ray and neutron diffraction up to the miscibility limit near x(BZN) = 20.0% over a temperature range 20 < T < 400 K. The combined X-ray and neutron data show that the instability within the xBZN-(1-x)BT system reaches a maximum at x = 3.9% and is driven by B-site displacement and distortion of the oxygen octahedra in the polar phases. Composition-dependent effects include a narrow Amm2-dominated region focused at x = 3.9%, significant convergence of the lattice parameters in both P4mm and Amm2 phases, and sharp maxima in piezoelectric coefficient d(33) and maximum polarization P-max. Lattice parameter dilation at x >= 4.0% was observed for both P4mm and Amm2 unit cells, alongside the first appearance of Pm (3) over barm at 295 K and the onset of significant dielectric relaxation. Low-temperature neutron diffraction indicated a weak or non-existent temperature dependence on the transition from ferroelectric at x = 3.9% to ferroelectric relaxor at x = 4.0%. Temperature-dependent phase transitions were eliminated near x = 3.0%, with the ferroelectric limit observed at x = 5.0% and a transition to a low-loss relaxor dielectric near x = 8.0%.
