1. Introduction stability. Alternative materials were then considered such as BiFeO 3
based ceramics. Particularly, compositions with Bi 1-xCaxFeO3, Piezoelectric materials have contributed widely to improve the CaTiO 3 or BaTiO 3 modified BiFeO 3 showed both ferroelectric and efficiency and sensitivity of sensors, actuators and transducers magnetoelectric properties [13e15]. Therefore, bismuth ferrite [1e3]. In this frame, recent developments were dedicated to lead- (BiFeO 3) based ceramics with excellent multiferroic features and free materials for their role in the environment preservation high ferroelectric Curie temperatures (1103 K) are highly relevant [4e6]. As promising candidates, K 0.5Na0.5NbO3 (KNN)-, Bi0.5 Na0.5- for practical applications. TiO3 (BNT)- and BaTiO3 (BT)-based ceramics are worthy of interest However, pure or doped BiFeO3 are difficult to obtain as a single- due to excellent piezoelectric responses [7,8]. The low Curie tem- phase structure with high piezoelectric responses and saturated P-E perature of BT- and KNN- based materials or the low depolarization loops [16,17]. The alternative challenge is then focused on the bi- temperature for BNT- and BT-based lead free systems, constitute a nary or ternary BiFeO 3 based systems. As examples, relevant major drawback for the thermal stability of their electrical prop- domain-like structures were built based on BiFeO 3 and ABO 3-type erties [9]. It was reported that the Curie temperature (T c ) of Ba1- perovskites such as BaTiO 3, CaTiO3, SrTiO3 and Bi0.5Na0.5TiO 3 x La2x/3TiO 3 is only up to 43 C [10] and T c of ternary 0.96 [14,18,19]. Also, 0.70BiFeO 3 -0.30BaTiO3 was investigated as the
[(K 0.48Na0.52) 0.95Li0.05Nb 1-xSbx O3]-0.04[BaZrO3] is u p to 175 C [11]. optimal composition offering the highest remnant polarization The depolarization temperature of 160 C for KBT-BT-NBT is not along with high piezoelectric d 33 coefficient [20,21]. Moreover, it suitable for piezoelectric materials [12] with high temperature was reported that Sc, Ga, Al, La, In, Co, Gd, Nd and Ni doping at B sites can promote the piezoelectric and ferroelectric properties of BiFeO 3 -BaTiO3 system as ABO3 perovskite materials [22e25].
