Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3 ceramics prepared via columbite method by using two types of Mg precursors, i.e. MgO and (MgCO3)4·Mg(OH)2·4H2O exhibit high crystallinity and high densification after sintering at 1200°C. Higher amounts of pyrochlore phases were detected in the PMN sample obtained by using (MgCO3)4· Mg(OH)2.4H2O as precursor. This compositional difference, determines, for all frequencies, a shift of ∼ 50 K of the temperature corresponding to the permittivity maximum Tm for the sample derived from (MgCO3)4·Mg(OH)2·4H2O. From this reason, better dielectric properties were obtained at room temperature for this PMN sample, although a higher dielectric permittivity at Tm was obtained for the sample derived from MgO precursor.

Abstract
Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3 ceramics prepared via columbite method by using two types of Mg precursors, i.e. MgO and (MgCO3)4·Mg(OH)2·4H2O exhibit high crystallinity and high densification after sintering at 1200°C. Higher amounts of pyrochlore phases were detected in the PMN sample obtained by using (MgCO3)4· Mg(OH)2.4H2O as precursor. This compositional difference, determines, for all frequencies, a shift of ∼ 50 K of the temperature corresponding to the permittivity maximum Tm for the sample derived from (MgCO3)4·Mg(OH)2·4H2O. From this reason, better dielectric properties were obtained at room temperature for this PMN sample, although a higher dielectric permittivity at Tm was obtained for the sample derived from MgO precursor.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
