Excitation performance of Ba0.8Mg0.2(Zr0.1Ti0.8Ce0.1)O3 materials in an electrical field.

Dense and stoichiometric Ba 0.8 Mg 0.2 (Zr 0.1 Ti 0.8 Ce 0.1) O 3 (BMZTCO) ceramics have been synthesised and their excitation was experimentally evaluated by applying an electric field. The processed sample exhibits superior frequency-independent and temperature-dependent dielectric parameters. The prepared sample has combined the tetragonal and cubic phases of BaTiO 3 and Ce 2 O 3 . The Bode plots suggest non-Debye type of relaxation mechanism and positive temperature coefficient-type behaviour. The excitation intensity reaches a peak when the driving frequency matches with the natural frequency of the prepared sample. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
