【 摘 要 】

A systematic study was performed to see the effect of Manganese addition and temperature gradient on the electrical properties of PSZT. Pb0.96Sr0.04(Zr0.52Ti0.48) O3(PSZT) containing 0.3%, 0.5%, and 1% Mn was prepared by the sol gel method in order to ensure good stoichiometry and enhanced purity. The powders were calcined at 550°C and sintered at 1200°C to achieve 98% of the theoretical density. High field ac study was performed by (P-E) hysteresis measurements at different temperatures (RT, 60, 90, 120 and 150°C) using an electric field up to 3 kV/mm. It was observed that for a lower Mn concentration P-E loops are pinched at the center while this constriction is found to decrease for greater concentrations. The optimized results were obtained for the 1 mol% of Mn content with 4 mol% of Sr. The values of Qm, k, d33and tanδ were measured as 756, 0.38, 257 and 0.002 respectively. Higher temperatures coupled with a gradual increase of the electric field resulted in a shift of the hysteresis loops along electric field axis, indicating the presence of an internal bias field. Dependence of pyroelectric properties on applied electric field was also investigated. The value of pyroelectric coefficient was found maximum 6.25 × 10-4(C/m2K) at 3 kV/mm.
