- Abstract
The effect mechanism of lattice distortion caused by heterovalent rare‐earth and alkaline‐earth ions co‐doping in the electrical properties of piezo‐ceramics is generally concerning. Herein, the Sm2O3/MgO co‐doped 0.65(Ba0.96Sr0.04TiO3)–0.35(Bi0.50Na0.50TiO3) (BST–BNT: x(Sm, Mg)) (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.25 wt%) ceramics are prepared by Pechini sol–gel method. The reversibility transition from the tetragonal P4/mmm relaxation paraelectric phase to the tetragonal P4mm relaxation ferroelectric phase confirms the doping‐modulated piezoelectric constants' response to the spatial symmetry. Excessive Sm3+ and Mg2+ in the interstitial lattice inhibit the Jahn–Teller effect of distortion in the crystal spatial symmetry. The restored P4/mmm spatial symmetry of BST–BNT: x(Sm, Mg) (x = 0.15 wt%) ceramics contributes to the large electric‐induced strain, increased Curie temperature, and the stabilized frequency dependence of the Curie temperature (TC [1 MHz] = 167 °C, εr [1 MHz] = 2151.92, d33 = 43 pC N−1, Smax/Emax = 535.22 pm V−1). The samples with large electric‐induced strain and good temperature stability of electrical properties can be applied in the heat dissipation actuators.
