| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
For the high-temperature actuator applications of piezoelectric ceramics, it is necessary to control the mobility of ferroelectric domain walls. In this study, we firstly revealed the influence of dopant and grain size on the domain switching in BiFeO3-based lead-free piezoelectric ceramics with high Curie temperatures. In order to control the domain wall motions by introducing the inhomogeneous distribution of point defects in piezoelectric ceramics, we also tried to concentrate Mn ions near grain boundaries in BaTiO3 ceramics. It was demonstrated that the polarized state in the resulting ceramic was more stable than that in an undoped BaTiO3 ceramic.
