A series of Bi(0.5−x)Lax(Na0.82K0.18)0.5Ti0.96Zr0.02Sn0.02O3 (BNKTZS‐xL) (x=0–0.18) lead‐free ceramics were designed and fabricated by using a conventional solid‐state sintering method. The effects of the La3+ content on the properties of the BNKTZS‐xL ceramics were systematically investigated. Temperature‐dependent dielectric constant curves displayed two depressed anomalies, which resulted in significantly improved dielectric temperature stability. The polarization–electric field hysteresis loops illustrated that the addition of La3+ markedly enhanced the breakdown strength, energy‐storage density, and energy‐storage efficiency. A maximum energy‐storage density of 1.95 J cm−3 was obtained for the material with x=0.10, and the energy‐storage efficiency significantly improved from 28 to 85 % upon increasing the value of x from 0 to 0.18. These properties indicate that the BNKTZS‐xL ceramics may be promising lead‐free materials for high energy‐storage capacitor applications.
