The single crystals of lead-free NaBiTiO were grown using the Czochralski method. The energy gaps determined from X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and optical measurements were approximately 2.92 eV.

- The study explores the mechanical properties of Mn- and Fe-doped NaBiTiO ceramics, measuring factors like Young's modulus, Poisson's ratio, and more, in both unpoled and poled states.
- Results indicate that adding Mn and Fe ions and applying electric poling improve the ceramics' mechanical and piezoelectric properties, altering their stress-strain responses.
- These modifications lead to significant ferroelastic deformation and large remnant polarization, suggesting that these doped ceramics could serve as effective alternatives to PZT ceramics in high-stress actuator applications.
Lead-free KBiTiO (KBT) ceramics with high density (~5.36 g/cm, 90% of X-ray density) and compositional purity (up to 90%) were synthesized using a solid-state reaction method. Strongly condensed KBT ceramics revealed homogenous local microstructures.

The influence of the ferrite content in ceramic composite materials on the functional properties is investigated and discussed. X-ray diffraction studies confirmed the presence of two main phases of the composite, with strong reflections originating from BaTiO and weak peaks originating from nickel-zinc ferrite.
