The upper Manganese doping limit and its effects on physical properties of lead-free Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 ceramics
The lead-free piezoelectric, Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3, was synthesized with varying amounts of Manganese (Mn) doping (x = 0.00, 0.02, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15) on the B-site to replace Ti4+ cations. Herein, the doping limit of Mn is explored along with its effects on the structure and properties of these materials. The temperature-dependent dielectric properties of the materials with a higher manganese doping level have also been comprehensively investigated in the temperature range of 10–700 K. All samples show a high dielectric permittivity, εr ~ 4979–3626 at Tm ~ 550–600 K, along with a low dielectric loss. The magnetic study shows that doping with Mn leads to a complex magnetic state, where there is possible clustering of Mn ions, with inter- or intra-cluster interactions becoming dominant at approximately 50 K. These samples may be considered as alternative to lead-free materials with magneto-electric coupling.M. Q. Awan would like to acknowledge Higher Education

Structure, dielectric and ferroelectric properties of lead-free (Ba,Ca)(Ti,Zr)O3-xBiErO3 piezoelectric ceramics
Lead-free piezoelectric ceramics [(Ba0.85Ca0.15)(Ti0.90Zr0.10)O3-xBiErO3 (BCTZ-xBE)] doped with a new doping material BiErO3 (BE) has been synthesized successfully via solid state reaction technique, and their structural, dielectric, ferroelectric, and piezoelectric properties have been investigated. A high dielectric constant with very low dielectric loss and high remnant polarization followed by a low coercive field has been obtained with the addition of x = 0.5 BE. Bulk ferroelectric hysteresis loops were obtained with a maximum polarization Pmax = 26.7 μC/cm2 and a saturation polarization Ps = 16.65 μC/cm2 along with a coercive field of Ec ≈ 2.45 kV/cm. Results demonstrate an induced-strain increasing from ~ 0.11 to ~ 0.24 for x = 0.5, excellent piezoelectricity with d33 = 560 pC/N, kp = 56%, Qm = 196, εm = 11,200 and tanδ = 0.01
