As lead-free piezoelectric materials, $Ag_2O$ doped $0.95(K_{0.5}Na_{0.5})NbO_3-0.05LiNbO_3+x$ mol% (where x = 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5 and 3, respectively) ceramics were fabricated by a conventional sintering process. The doping effects on the microstructure and electrical properties of the $0.95(K_{0.5}Na_{0.5})NbO_3-0.05LiNbO_3$ ceramics were systematically investigated. When the 3 mol % $Ag_2O$ doped $0.95(K_{0.5}Na_{0.5})NbO_3-0.05LiNbO_3$ samples were sintered at $1,080^{\circ}C$ for 5 hrs in air, these ceramics showed excellent values of density=4.20 $g/cm^3$, piezoelectric constant ($d_{33}$)=174 pC/N and phase transition temperature$(T_c)=421.6^{\circ}C$, respectively.
