Abstract

The electric field dependence of the dielectric constant (dc-tunability) for PZT based- ceramics with excess and deficit of lead was investigated. Dense and homogeneous substituted PZT samples with moderate dielectric constant and low dielectric losses were prepared by solid state reaction. Their dc-tunability characteristics were investigated and the experimental data were discussed in terms of the Johnson model completed with a Langevin term that describes “extrinsic” contribution to the nonlinear (E) dependences..

Keywords
