The structural, dielectric and piezoelectric properties of (1—x)PbZr0:52Ti0:48O3{xBaFe0:5Nb0:5O3ceramic system with the composition near the morphotropic phase boundary were investigated as a function of the BaFe0:5Nb0:5O3content by X-ray diαrac- tion (XRD), dielectric measurement and piezoelectric measurement techniques. Studies were performed on the samples prepared by solid state reaction for x = 0:10, 0.12, 0.14, 0.16, 0.18 and 0.20. The XRD analysis demonstrated that with increasing BFN content in (1—x)PZTxBFN, the structural change occurred from tetragonal to the mixture of tetragonal and cubic phase. Changes in the dielectric behavior and piezoelectric proper-ties were found to relate with these structural changes depending on the BFN contents.
