Abstract
In the modified PbTiO3-BiFeO3 system, there is a morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) between the tetragonal and rhombohedral phases. The electromechanical properties of ceramics with composition near the MPB were examined. It is shown that, when the BiFeO 3 content is within 57.5-60 mol.%, there is a mutation of electromechanical properties in the modified PbTiO3 system, making them similar to those of the PbTiO3-PbZrO3 system. In order to explain this mutation, the microstructure, domain structure, and electron diffraction of samples were observed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). It was found that the special microstructure, domain structure, and one-dimensional superlattice observed in the samples may be the cause of the excellent electromechanical properties of these ceramics
