摘要: Density functional theory (DFT) was used to investigate the structure and polarization of lead-free piezoelectric, Ba(1−x)CaxZryTi(1−y)O3, perovskite solid solutions, namely BaTiO3 (BT), Ba(Zr0.125Ti0.875)O3 (BZT), (Ba0.875Ca0.125)TiO3 (BCT) Ba0.875Ca0.125(Zr0.125Ti0.875)O3 (BCZT). Here, we focus on understanding effect simultaneous substitution Ca Zr in BT lattice structural behaviour. During calculations a supercell allowed relax with individually as well simultaneously obtain new atomic positions vectors. The density states calculated for all compositions ions O 2p Ti 3d hybridization studied along their band gap. Berry phase were performed understand behaviour, phonon dispersion also stability BCZT compositions. investigated by DFT synthesised oxide route analysed using X-ray diffraction. Structural properties obtained analysis Rietveld refinement BCZT; experimentally ferroelectric behaviour compared. Further dielectric piezoelectric studied.
