In this article, we report successful preparation of dense [(Na0.5K0.5)(1-x)Sr-x](Nb1-xTix)O-3 (x = 0.005-0.100) ceramics by ordinary sintering in air. The dependence of phase structure on doping content of SrO and TiO2 has been determined by the X-ray diffraction technique. It was found that the crystal structure changed from orthorhombic to tetragonal at x approximate to 0.040. Dielectric study revealed that the dielectric relaxor behavior was induced by doping of SrO and TiO2 into (Na0.5K0.5)NbO3. The samples in the composition range from x = 0.005 to 0.020 exhibited excellent electrical properties, piezoelectric constant of d(33) = 90-96 pC/N, electromechanical planar and thickness coupling coefficients of k(p) = 26.6-32.5% and k(l) = 39.8-43.8%. The results show that the [(Na0.5K0.5)(1-x)Sr-x](Nb1-xTix)O-3 ceramics are one of the promising lead-free materials for electromechanical transducer applications. (C) 2003 Elsevier Ltd.
