전기열량소자용 Ag 첨가량에 따른 K(Ta,Nb)O3 세라믹스의 구조적·전기적 특성

초록

In this work, the (K1-xAgx)(Ta0.8Nb0.2)O3 (x=0.1-0.4) ceramics were fabricated using mixed-oxide method, and their structural and electrical properties were measured. All specimens represented a pseudo cubic structure with the lattice constant of 0.3989 nm. When 0.4 mol of Ag was added, second phases induced from metallic Ag and K2(Ta,Nb)6O16 phase were observed. Dielectric constant and dielectric loss of K(Ta0.8Nb0.2)O3 specimen doped with 0.3 mol of Ag were 2,737 and 0.446, respectively. The curie temperature was about –5℃, which does not change with Ag addition. The remanent polarization began to decrease sharply around 12~15℃, and the temperature at which the remanent polarization began to decrease as the applied voltage increased shifted to the high temperature side. The electrocaloric effect (ΔT) and electrocaloric efficiency (ΔT/ΔE) of the (K0.7Ag0.3)(Ta0.8Nb0.2)O3 ceramics were 0.01024℃ and 0.01825 KmV-1, respectively.
