Abstract

In this paper, in order to develop low temperature sintering piezoelectric ceramics for piezoelectric transformer, PMW-PMN-PZT ceramics using 0.25wt%$CaCO_3$ and 0.2wt%$Li_2CO_3$ as sintering aids were fabricated according to the variation of amount of PMW and Zr/Ti ratio. Specimens could be sintered at 900$^{\circ}C$ by adding sintering aids. As Zr/Ti ratio was increased, kp was increased and Qm was decreased by approaching MPB region, and kp showed the largest value of 0.58 at Zr/Ti:50/50. The variation of amount of PMN substitution affected the liquid phase sintering of the ceramics using sintering aids, and decreased piezoelectric properties.
