Abstract

The dielectric functions and lattice vibrations of (0.935-x)Bi 0.5 Na 0.5 TiO 3 -0.065BaTiO 3 -xSrTiO 3 (BNBSTx) ceramics were investigated by temperature-dependent spectroscopic ellipsometry and Raman scattering. Based on the analysis of dielectric functions with the Tauc-Lorentz dispersion model, it was found that the band gap and the temperature coefficient increased with the addition of SrTiO 3 . Moreover, the frequency, intensity and/or full width at half maximum of phonon modes related to Bi and Ti-localized phonon modes exhibited local maximum/minimum around the depolarization temperature and permittivity-maximum temperature, which indicated the ongoing structural transformation. In addition, the Sr introduction affected the TiO 6 tilting and the off-center displacement of Ti 4+ . These results seem to be significant for the enhanced response functions with the addition of SrTiO 3 in BNBSTx ceramics.
