Abstract

Ordered structures of Ba(Cd1/3Ta2/3)O3 ceramics with and without boron additive were investigated systemically by electron diffraction and high resolution transmission electron microscopy. The results showed a well-ordered structure of 1:2 with hexagonal symmetry for Ba(Cd1/3Ta2/3)O3 with boron additive. No significant changes in ordered structures were observed after long-period annealing. The 1:2 ordered domain structures (average domain size ∼18 nm) and high-density domain boundaries induced by ordering were observed for Ba(Cd1/3Ta2/3)O3 without boron additive sintered at relatively high temperature. The sintering process has a profound influence on the microstructure of Ba(Cd1/3Ta2/3)O3 ceramics.
