Abstract:
In this paper, by CO2 laser sintering technique, grain-oriented K0.5Na0.5NbO3-LiTaO3 ceramics with high dense of 92% theoretical density were prepared. The dielectric, piezoelectric and electromechanical properties were found to be Ε ∼ 510, d33 ∼ 120 pC/N, and kp ∼ 36%, while with high Curie temperature of about 420 °C and low dielectric loss of about 0.030.04. The high dense (92% theoretical density) structure with the texture character of grain-orientation is the factors to obtain good piezoelectric properties of the ceramics. The preparation of high dense ceramic is due to the suppression of O2 discharged by the coaxial gas injection systems on the volatilization of the K+, Na+ and Li+ during laser heating. An interesting change of grain shape from isometric to anisometric (needle-like) relating to the grain-orientation was observed obviously in the laser-sintered KNN-based. It was concluded that the enhanced Curie temperature associated with the high temperature phase transition was induced by the instant adjustment of laser power density from 0.07 kW/cm2 to 0.28 kW/cm2 just during 25 s.
