- Abstract
- The diffuse phase transition (DPT) characteristics and the associated defect mechanism of Na-doped Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O-3 (PMN) relaxer perovskite were studied. The enhanced DPT and the decrease in the intensity of the superlattice reflection were observed in the presence of Na2O. These contradictory observations were interpreted in terms of the inhibition of the growth of the 1:1 nonstoichiometric short-range ordered domains and the increase in the microcompositional fluctuation of the B-site cations caused by the formation of negatively charged Na-Mg' sites, The mechanism of the associated defect process was then elucidated by analyzing the electrical conductivity as a function of the oxygen partial pressure. It was shown that the substitution of Na+ ions for Mg2+ ions in the B-site sublattice of perovskite PMN produced the negatively charged Na-Mg' sites with a concomitant generation of oxygen vacancies (V-O(..)) for the ionic compensation. This expedites the enhancement of the compositional inhomogeneities of the B-site cations and suppresses the growth of the nonstoichiometrically ordered nanodomains in a disordered matrix.
