Abstract:Nb5+-doped sodium bismuth titanate (NBT) ceramics
((Na0.5Bi0.5)1-x/2Ti1-xNbxO3 where x = 0, 0.005, 0.01 and 0.015) were
obtained by microwave assisted solid state reaction route and microwave
sintered at 1000 ?C. Microwave processing technique was chosen for the
sintering as it is a powerfulmethod which enables sintering in a short time
with fast heating rate avoiding grain growth. The influence of Nb5+-doping
on microstructure and electrical properties of the NBT ceramics was studied.
