Abstract :
It has been reported that less fatigue behaviors and low leakage currents of SrBi2Ta2O9 (SBT) and Bi4-xLaxTi3O12 (BLT) rise from oxygen ion compensation from the (Bi2O2)+ layer to the perovskite lattice. In this study, the structural changes (phase transitions and local structures) of SBT and BLT after annealing in vacuum were studied to examine the crucial factor for their structural stability.
