Abstract

Pb(Zr, Ti)O 3 piezoelectric ceramics with high strain and low hysteresis are essential for ultra-precision driving and positioning in advanced manufacturing and control fields. In this study, the doping engineering via dual cations was utilized to improve the strain characteristics of Pb(Zr, Ti)O 3-based ceramics, and thus the ceramics 0.3PbTiO 3–0.65PbZrO 3–0.05(Bi 0.3La 0.7)(Zn 0.5Ti 0.5)O 3– x wt% (La 2O 3+Nb 2O 5) were probed. Results show that excellent comprehensive performance is fulfilled for the ceramic with x = 5, i.e., a high strain S = 0.45 %, low strain hysteresis Hy =16 %, and high piezoelectric coefficient d 33 = 585 pC/N. For modified ceramics, the large electrostrictive strain stems from the synergistic role of lattice distortion and transformation of electric domain morphology due to cations doping. This study demonstrates a productive cation co-doping engineering to enhance the electrostrictive strain in Pb(Zr, Ti)O 3-based ceramics, which enables the ceramics to have good features applied in piezoelectric actuators.
