Crystals of Co-doped 0.92Pb(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O3–0.08PbTiO3 (PZNT) were grown by modified flux technique. The dielectric and piezoelectric properties were investigated for oriented crystals. Under high power resonant drive, the mechanical quality factor (Qm) and vibration velocity showed a considerable improvement, compared to the unmodified PZNT crystals. Unhysteretic unipolar strain–electric field response was obtained for field levels of 30-kV/cm with strain level of ∼0.3%. Co-doping resulted in the increment of electric field level required for rhombohedral to tetragonal phase transition. The curie temperature of Co-modified crystals was ∼130°C. The results obtained in this study indicate that Co imparts hardening effect in the PZNT crystal.
