Popis: The ability of BaTiO3 to form solid solutions with different dopants (both iso- and aliovalent) makes it versatile for various applications. In the present study, (Ba,Ca)TiO3 (BCT) is modified with Bi(MgTi)O3 (BMT) in search for new lead-free ferroelectric material and improve their properties. For this purpose, BCT acts as a main base material and BMT acts as a modifier to fabricate a multifunctional material. In this study, we report the structural and electrical properties of lead free piezo-ceramics (1−x)(Ba0.8Ca0.2)TiO3–xBi(Mg0.5Ti0.5)O3 with x=0.2, 0.4, 0.5 prepared by solid-state sintering technique. Single perovskite phase with tetragonal structure is obtained for all the compositions, which is reconfirmed by the Raman Spectroscopic study. Dielectric study confirm the temperature stable behavior of the dielectric permittivity values above 300∘C. The dielectric constant value decreases with increase in BMT doping content. Impedance Spectroscopic study confirms non-Debye type dielectric relaxation in the specimen. The Nyquist plot and conductivity studies show the negative temperature coefficient of resistance behavior (NTCR) of the samples.
