Abstract

Modified lead titanate ceramics with a composition of (Pb_0.88-xCa_xSm_0.08)(Ti_0.98Mn_0.02)O₃; x = 0.11, 0.13, 0.15 and 0.17 were prepared. Simultaneous doping of samarium and calcium resulted in normal ferroelectric behavior, i.e. the dielectric properties changed in a manner typically associated with isovalent shifting of the Curie temperature. However, the unique attribute of this system appeared for the x=0.13 and 0.15 compositions, which exhibited k_t's ≥75%.
