Abstract

A PMN-PT-BT/Ag composite was prepared by surface modification with MgO sol with hoping to suppress silver's migration during sintering. The mixture of PbO, $N_2O_5,\;TiO_2\;with\;Mg(NO_3)_2$ instead of MgO was ball milled, the solvent was removed and then the dried powders were calcined at 950$^{\circ}C$/1h. The calcined powder were treated with 3.0 mol% $Ag_2O$ and 1.0 wt% MgO sol and calcined at 550$^{\circ}C$/1h. The dielectrics sintered at 1000$^{\circ}C$/4h under a flowing oxygen showed the density of 7.84g/$cm^3$, the room temperature dielectric constant of 18400, the dielectric loss of 2.4%, the specific resistivity of $0.24{\times}10^{12}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$. It also showed the bending strength of $120.7{\pm}11.26$ MPa and the fracture toughness of $0.87{\pm}0.002\;MPam^{1/2}$ which were comparable to commercial PZT. The microstructure sonsisted of grains of ∼4${\mu}m$. SEM and SIMS analysis showed that Ag grew as ∼1${\mu}m$ and excess MgO as ∼0.5${\mu}m$.

강유전체 물질인 PMN-PT-BT의 기계적 특성을 향상시키기 위한 Ag와의 복합체 제조를 MgO 졸로 분말 표면을 코팅하여 소결시 Ag의 이동을 제어하는 방법으로 시도하였다. PbO, $Nb_2O_5,\;TiO_2,\;BaCO_3$와 MgO 대신 $Mg(NO_3)_2$을 사용하여 볼밀로 혼합한 후, 건조된 분말을 950$^{\circ}C$/1h 열처리하여, 단일 페로브스카이트 상을 얻었다. 이 분말에 3.0 몰%의 $Ag_2O$을 혼합한 후, 550$^{\circ}C$/1h 열처리로 Ag 입자를 생성시키고, 이 혼합 분말에 1.0wt%의 MgO 졸을 첨가한 다음 550$^{\circ}C$/1h 열처리하여 표면 개질된 분말을 얻었다. 이 분말을 산소 분위기에서 1000$^{\circ}C$/4h 열처리한 소결체는 소결 밀도 7.84/$cm^3$, 실온 유전율 18400, 유전손실 2.4%, 비저항 $0.24{\times}10^{12}{\Omega}{\cdot}cm$의 수한 유전 특성과 굽힘강도 $120.7{\pm}11.26$ MPa와 파괴인성 $0.87{\pm}0.002\;MPam^{1/2}$을 보여 주었다. 결정립의 크기는 ∼4${\mu}m$이며, SEM과 SIMS 분석은 Ag는 ∼1${\mu}m$ 크기로, 과잉의 MgO는 ∼0.5${\mu}m$로 분포되어 있음을 알 수 있었다.
