Analyses for oxygen vacancies in (Na,K)NbO3-series piezoelectric ceramics by soft x-ray emission spectroscopy

(Na0.55K0.45)NbO3 (NKN) and acceptor-doped (Na0.55K0.45)(Nb1-xZr5x/4)O3 (NKNZ; x = 0.005 and 0.01) piezoelectric ceramics were fabricated by the conventional solid-state reaction method. Both ceramics were applied to a fatigue test for 106 cycles under an electric field at 3 kV/mm with unipolar driv...
