Abstract: (1- x)Bi(Sc1- yY y)O3- xPbTiO3(BSYPT- x/y) ceramics were prepared by theconventional mixed oxide method, and their crystal structure, microstructure, andferroelectric properties were investigated. XRD analyses show that the crystalstructure of BSYPT- x/y ceramicschanges from rhombohedral to tetragonal symmetry with increasing of PbTiO3amount. The introduction of BiYO3 into BiScO3-PbTiO3solid solution would cause a shift of morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) of BSYPT- x/y system from x=0.62, y=0.05 to x=0.56, y=0.20. The BYSPT- x/ y ceramics with x=0.58 and y=0.15 showthe pinched hysteresis loops, which can be attributed to the pinned domainwalls of the dipolar defects following the substitution of Sc3+ and Ti4+ions for Y3+ ions in B site of BYSPT system.

Key words: BSYPT- x/ y, high Curie temperature, piezoelectric ceramics, ferroelectric properties
