Design of lead-free BCZT-based ceramics with enhanced piezoelectric energy harvesting performances.

The design of lead-free ceramics for piezoelectric energy harvesting applications has become a hot topic. Among these materials, BaCaZrTiO (BCZT) and BaTiSnO (BTSn) are considered as potential candidates due to their enhanced piezoelectric properties. Here, the structural, electrical, piezoelectric and piezoelectric energy harvesting properties of the (1 - )BaCaZrTiO-BaTiSnO (BTSn, = 0.
