Popis: A′ site substitution in perovskite Y2/3Cu3-xZnxTi4O12 (x = 0.00, 0.03, 0.05, 0.07, 0.1) was designed and synthesized using solid state reaction method. Zn doping was responsible for the improved dielectric properties and nonlinear behaviors of the samples. All the samples exhibited giant dielectric constant above 7000 over a wide frequency range of 40 Hz–100 kHz. Besides, the temperature stability of the dielectric constant was controlled within −10.1%–11.9% in the temperature range from −55 °C to 125 °C at 10 kHz. Remarkably, the breakdown electric field for Y2/3Cu2.9Zn0.1Ti4O12 sample was significantly enhanced to ∼10.86 kV/cm, which could be attributed to the enhanced grain boundary resistance. Our work might shed light on future researches on A′ site substitution in ACTO based dielectrics.
