Abstract:
Dielectric properties of perovskite ferroelectric solid solutions Li$_{0.07}$Na$_{0.93}$Ta$_{0.1}$Nb$_{0.9}$O$_3$ and Li$_{0.07}$Na$_{0.93}$Ta$_{0.111}$Nb$_{0.889}$O$_3$ are studied over the 290–700 K range of temperature within the frequency range of 25–10$^6$ Hz. A decrease of the Curie temperature ($\sim$75 K) compared with Li$_{0.07}$Na$_{0.93}$Ta$_{0.111}$Nb$_{0.889}$O$_3$ synthesized from mechanical mixture of pentoxides Ta$_2$O$_5$ and Nb$_2$O$_5$ is observed in Li$_{0.07}$Na$_{0.93}$Ta$_{0.1}$Nb$_{0.9}$O$_3$ synthesized from co-precipitated pentoxide Ta$_{2y}$Nb$_{2(1-y)}$O$_5$.
