The influence of doping on defect equilibrium and double P-E loops in NaNbO3 material was studied. Formation energies, charge transition levels, and doping behavior of single defects and defect complexes doped with Ca, Sn, and Sr in orthorhombic NaNbO3 were calculated using density functional theory (DFT). The results show that dopants substitutions have low formation energies and all defect complexes have negative binding energy.
The antiferroelectric NaNbO3 is a candidate material for application in high-energy density dielectric capac-itors. Various doping strategies have been used for installing the desired narrow double P-E loop behavior in this lead-free material. However, to unravel the influence of doping on the double P-E loops, we first need to understand the influence of doping on the defect equilibrium. In this study, we therefore calculate the formation energies, charge transition levels, and doping behavior of single defects and defect complexes in orthorhombic NaNbO3 doped with Ca, Sn, and Sr by means of density functional theory (DFT). The results show that substitutions with dopants have formation energies as low as Na and O vacancies. Additionally, all defect complexes show negative binding energy, which means they are stable and very likely to form. Lastly, we show how defect quenching influences the Fermi level, which reveals how the synthesis conditions can tailor the final defect distribution.
