In the present study, Sr0.7Bi0.2TiO3 is mixed with [(K0.5Bi0.5)(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3] to form a solid solution of [(1 − x)SBT–x(KB)(MNb), x = 0.02, 0.04, 0.06, 0.1]. From the XRD results, it is indicated that KB is the main substituent for SBT ceramic at the A‐site. The breakdown strength (BDS) of ceramic gradually increases with an increase in doping content and achieves a high value of 280 kV/cm for x = 0.06. In addition, the 0.94SBT–0.06(KB)(MNb) ceramic shows excellent temperature stability (−55 to 140°C), a high recoverable energy density (Wd)—2.6 J/cm3, and an efficiency (η)—88% at 280 kV/cm. Therefore, 0.94SBT–0.06(KB)(MNb) ceramic is one of the possible materials for energy storage capacitor applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

(1 − x)Sr0.7Bi0.2TiO3-xBi(Mg0.5Ce0.5)O3 (x = 0.02, 0.04, 0.06, and 0.1) ceramics were prepared through the solid-state reaction method. Structural, microstructural, dielectric, and energy storage characteristics were thoroughly examined. A dense microstructure with a single perovskite phase was obtained for x ≤ 0.06. A high energy storage density of ~ 1.86 J/cm3, recoverable energy density of ~ 1.67 J/cm3, and a high efficiency of ~ 90% at a breakdown electric field strength of 240 kV/cm were achieved for x = 0.06. Further, this composition also shows a ΔC/C25°C in the range of − 55 to 135 °C. The above characteristics indicate that this material is a suitable candidate for power-pulsed capacitor applications.

Single lead-free Na0.73Bi0.09(Nb1 − xTax)O3 (x = 0, 0.10, 0.20, 0.30, and 0.40) ceramic phases were processed via a solid-state sintering route. The phase, microstructure, dielectric, and energy storage properties of the sintered ceramics were investigated. A high εr > 1000, a recoverable energy storage density (Wrec) ~ 0.92 J/cm3 along with ultra-high efficiency of 96.33% at 127 kV was obtained for x = 0 composition at room temperature. At x = 0.10, the value of Wrec increased to ~ 1.13 J/cm3 while the efficiency slightly decreased to ~ 95.7%. Furthermore, the discharging time of x = 0.10 composition was ~ 0.12 µs. These characteristics make the x = 0.10 composition a suitable candidate material for pulsed power applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
