摘要

Building upon the Na0.5Bi0.49-xCaxTi0.99Mg0.01O3-δ system previously reported for its optimal electrical performance, we synthesized a series of calcium-doped ceramics with compositions Na0.5Bi0.49-xCax- Ti0.99Mg0.01O3-δ (x = 0, 0.01, 0.02, 0.03) using the solid-phase method. The ceramics underwent precisely controlled two-step thermal processing: initial calcination at 800 °C followed by sintering at 1000 °C, with rigorous stoichiometric control maintained across all samples. The samples were characterized by XRD, SEM, and AC impedance spectroscopy to study the effect of Ca2+ doping concentration on the crystal structure, morphology and electrical properties of samples, specially, the bulk conductivity ( \(\sigma_b\) σ b ), grain boundaries conductivity ( \(\sigma gb\) σ g b ), and total conductivity ( \(\sigma_{t}\) σ t ), which obtained by the fitted impedance spectra, were analyzed in detail to reveal the effect of Ca2+-doping on the electrical performance. The findings revealed that all the samples displayed a pure perovskite phase without discernible impurity peaks. Furthermore, the average grain size of the samples decreased as the doping concentration was increased, suggesting that Ca2+ play a role in retarding grain growth. Upon substitution of Bi3+ with Ca2+, the grain conductivity peaked at a doping ratio of x = 0.02. The grain boundary conductivity, on the other hand, increased initially with the rise in x before declining, reaching its maximum at x = 0.01. Consequently, the total conductivity was found to be at its highest when x = 0.01.
