Abstract

Abstract The effect of LiBiO 2 (LBO) additive on the sintering of Pb 0.97 La 0.03 (Zr 0.53 Ti 0.47 ) 0.9925 O 3 (PLZT) ceramics was carefully investigated. 6.0 wt% LBO added PLZT powders could be fully densified to 98% relative density at a temperature as low as 950 °C. It is worthy to notice that there are distinct enhancements in piezoelectric and electrostrictive properties by increasing the soaking time from 2 h to 7 h, which could mainly originate from the improvement of crystallinity and grain size of PLZT ceramics. By controlling the soaking time and concentration of LBO addition, PLZT ceramics sintered at 950 °C could exhibit high curie temperature of 240 °C and very high S 11 of 0.22% under 3.0 kV/mm, which is even better than that of traditionally sintered PZT-5, PMN–PZT, and this is very promising for actuators designed in multilayer structure in high temperature environment.
