Abstract

The dielectric properties of the ceramics of (1 − x)BiFeO3x(KBi)1/2TiO3 (0.40 < x < 0.85) solid solutions with an orthorhombic structure have been studied using impedance spectroscopy in the frequency range 25–106 Hz at different temperatures. It has been shown that these solid solutions undergo a diffuse ferroelectric phase transition. The Curie temperature is found to be in the range 620–640 K. The activation energies of dielectric polarization relaxation (δE M ) and dc charge carriers (ΔE dc) are determined. It has been established that, in the vicinity of 460 K, ΔE dc increases jumpwise as the temperature increases.
