Synthesis and characterization of barium niobate and silver niobate solid solution

摘要

Silver niobate and barium niobate solid solution ferroelectric material with the general formula AgNbO3+BaNb2O6 (ABN) is synthesized by conventional ceramic route. X-Ray diffraction studies of ABN revealed AgNbO3 and BaNb2O6 phases distinctly. The solid solution is characterized for ferroelectric and dielectric properties. After poling, the sample is scanned for P-E loop. The solid solution has resulted in a dielectric constant of 162 at room temperature when frequency scanned in the range of 100 Hz to 5 MHz is studied.
