Abstract

A series of Ba0.85Ca0.15Zr0.1(Ti1−xNix)0.9O3 (BCZT-xNi) (x = 0, 0.01, 0.02, 0.04) ceramics were prepared by the sol–gel method. The XRD results demonstrate that there is no secondary phase, revealing that Ni completely entered the unit cell to form a solid solution. The microstructures for Ni-doped BCZT ceramics show the average grain size decreases significantly with the increase of Ni content. When x = 0.01, the sample shows relatively high dielectric constant (εr ~ 4473) and good frequency stability, and low dielectric loss at 102 Hz (tan δ ~ 0.004). Influenced by do** Ni, the Curie temperature decreases and the diffusion phase transition increases. The hysteresis loop becomes slimmer and residual polarization is reduced. The sample of x = 0.02 shows an energy density of 0.18 J/cm3 and an energy efficiency of 70.12%. From the present work, cation replacement is an effective way to adjust its ferroelectric, dielectric, and energy storage properties.
