Ba(0.9−x)YxCa0.1Zr0.07Ti0.93O3 lead free piezoelectric ceramics were synthesized for x = 0–0.035 in the steps of 0.005. The lead free piezoceramics are gaining importance as there is an urgent demand for replacing the highly toxic PZT family piezoceramics. Ba0.9Ca0.1Zr0.07Ti0.93O3 (BCZT) is one such system. It shows some high electrical properties but suffers with a low Curie temperature, which restricts...
