    Development of Textured Lead-Free Nbt-Based Piezoelectric Materials in a Matrix, Synthesized by an Alternative Route, Via Templated Grain Growth
    (Springer, 2023) Çoban Tetik, Hatice Şule; Suvacı, Ender; Avcı, A. Murat; Adem, Umut; Karakaya, Merve
    In this study, (1−x)(K0.5Bi0.5TiO3-BaTiO3)−xNa0.5Bi0.5TiO3 KBT:BT = 2:1 where x = 0.8 (KBT-BT-NBT) (001) textured lead-free piezoelectric ceramics were fabricated using BT template by templated grain growth with tape casting. Unlike the commonly used matrix preparation method, which is the calcination of all raw materials in one step, the matrix phase was prepared in a different way by first preparing KBT, BT and NBT powders separately and then by calcining the mixtures of these powders, so that effect of the matrix, synthesized by this alternative route, on texture development properties was evaluated. In addition, the effect of BT template content on the grain orientation with different sintering temperature and time, structure evolution, phase stability and piezoelectric properties were investigated to assess the materials’ actuating performance. The highest Lotgering factor of 81% was achieved for the textured ceramics with 10 wt% BT templates sintered at 1150 °C for 48 h. Compared to the one-step synthesis method, similar Lotgering factor values were obtained at lower sintering temperatures in the matrix, synthesized by the alternative 2-step method. The highest piezoelectric constant, remnant polarization, strain value and depolarization temperature were also obtained from the same sample, as ~ 190 pC/N, 30 kV/cm, 25% at 50 kV/cm and ~ 165 °C, respectively. The results show that the textured, lead free K0.5Bi0.5TiO3-BaTiO3-Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 (KBT-BT-NBT) ceramics that are developed by using the matrix, synthesized by the alternative 2-step method, can be very promising lead-free electroceramics for high performance actuator applications.

    Enhanced Room Temperature Energy Storage Density of Bi(li1/3ti2 Substituted Bi0.5na0.5tio3-Batio3 Ceramics
    (IOP Publishing, 2021) Karakaya, Merve; Adem, Umut
    For high power electronics applications, relaxor ferroelectrics are promising materials due to their superior energy storage properties. In this study, we investigate the energy storage properties of novel lead free relaxor ferroelectric ceramics (1-x)(0.92Bi(0.5)Na(0.5)TiO(3)-0.08BaTiO(3))-xBi(Li1/3Ti2/3)O-3 (abbreviated as BNT-8BT-xBLT). BNT-8BT composition which is close to morphotropic phase boundary was chosen as the base due to its large maximum polarization (P-m) and higher ratio of weakly polar tetragonal phase which is expected to facilitate ergodic relaxor behavior and improve energy storage density. The substitution of BLT to the BNT-8BT strongly disrupts the correlations between the polar nanoregions and the transition from nonergodic to ergodic relaxor state occurs already at x = 0.02 BLT at room temperature. Largest energy density (W-rec) at 61 kV cm(-1) was obtained for x = 0.02 sample (0.656 J cm(-3)), followed by x = 0.03 (W-rec = 0.614 J cm(-3)) and x = 0.05 (W-rec= 0.559 J cm(-3)). The x = 0.02 sample keeps its energy storage density at high temperatures (i.e. W-rec= 0.88 J cm(-3,) eta = 97%, E-m= 65 kV cm(-1) at 125 degrees C), while larger electric field (up to 89 kV cm(-1)) could be applied to the x = 0.05 sample with the smallest grain size and energy density of 1.03 J cm(-3) was reached at room temperature. Energy storage density values of BLT substituted materials normalized per unit applied electric field are promising among BNT-based materials.

    Electrical Characteristics of Low Temperature Densified Barium Titanate
    (Elsevier, 2020) Karacasulu, Levent; Tokkan, Melike; Bortolotti, Mauro; Ischia, Gloria; Adem, Umut; Ahmetoğlu, Çekdar Vakıf
    A low temperature densification technique, i.e. reactive hydrothermal liquid-phase densification (rHLPD) was followed to obtain highly dense BaTiO3 components at temperatures <= 240 degrees C. The formed ceramics were characterized concerning not only the structural features but also the electrical properties. The increase of both reaction time and temperature resulted in enhanced densification of BaTiO3 components reaching about 90% of theoretical density. The presence of the tetragonal BaTiO3 was demonstrated by both XRD and TEM analysis. Despite the low reaction temperatures, the samples showed promising dielectric, ferroelectric and piezoelectric functionality without additional annealing. A broad dielectric peak was observed around 135 degrees C at the Curie temperature; saturated hysteresis loops and corresponding butterfly-shaped strain-electric field loops were obtained. BaTiO3 sample subjected to hydrothermal reaction at 240 degrees C for 72 h yielded a piezoelectric coefficient of 84 pC/N.

    Electrocaloric Properties of Ba0. 8sr0. 2ti1-Xzrxo3 (0? X? 0.1) System: the Balance Between the Nature of the Phase Transition and Phase Coexistence
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2020) Şanlı, Keriman; Adem, Umut
    We investigate the electrocaloric effect of Ba0.8Sr0.2Ti1-xZrxO3 (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.1) system by comparing the electrocaloric temperature change (ΔT) of different compositions belonging to the different regions of the phase diagram. We show that as the amount of Zr increases, electrocaloric temperature change initially decreases as the phase transition gets diffuse then increases again as the composition of the samples are located closer to the critical point where different ferroelectric phases coexist. Since the critical point is reached at relatively low Zr substitution levels (i.e. around x = 0.07), the phase transition doesn't get too diffuse and thefore the compositions between x = 0 and x = 0.10 (which contains higher Zr than the critical point composition) have comparable ΔT values. Electrocaloric efficiency of these compositions (x = 0.03, 0.05 and 0.07) is around 0.20 K mm/kV at 20 kV/cm. We discuss the results in terms of the balance between the nature of the phase transition and proximity to the critical point, based on the phase diagram.
