摘要

The effects of Al3+ substitution for Ni2+ on microstructure and electrical properties of Li0.05Ni0.95-xAlxO ceramics were investigated. Doping with the higher-valence Al3+ cation promotes the reduction of Ni3+ to Ni2+, thereby increasing the Ni2+ content. At low Al3+ content, the promotion in Ni2+ content dominates, and its high ionic mobility benefits sintering and refines the grain size. Consequently, the Li0.05Ni0.94Al0.01O ceramic exhibits a minimum average grain size of 1.55 μm, the lowest resistivity of 2.86 Ω·cm, a resistance temperature coefficient of 7.2 × 10–3 °C−1, and a nonlinear coefficient of 1.025. Finally, the actual pulsed charging-discharging test demonstrated a fast energy transmission speed (t0.9 < 100 ns), confirming the high potential of Li0.05Ni0.95O-based linear ceramic resistors for pulsed power systems.
