The invention relates to a
sodium bismuth titanate-
barium titanate lead-free transparent electro-optic
ceramic and a preparation method thereof; the electro-optic
ceramic has the
chemical composition of (1-x)(Na0.5Bi0.5)TiO3-xBaTiO3, wherein 0.05<=x<=0.08; the preparation method includes the steps: batching Na2CO3, Bi2O3, TiO2 and BaCO3 as raw materials according to the stoichiometric ratio, carrying out ball milling, and mixing evenly to obtain a
powder; carrying out heat preservation on the
powder for 2-4 h at the temperature of 850-950 DEG C, and thus obtaining a synthetic material; crushing the synthetic material, sieving, carrying out ball milling, adding a binder, and carrying out press molding to obtain a blank; next, placing the blank in a
sintering furnace, heating up from
room temperature to 800 DEG C-850 DEG C at the speed of 200 DEG C-250 DEG C / h, and carrying out heat preservation for 0.5-1.5 h; and heating up at the speed of 100 DEG C / h and gradually pressurizing to 200-250 MPa, followed by keeping the pressure unchanged, heating up to 1000 DEG C-1050 DEG C, then carrying out heat preservation for 2 h, then heating up to 1100 DEG C-1200 DEG C at the speed of 50 DEG C / h, carrying out heat and pressure preservation for 8-24 h, then releasing the pressure, cooling to 900 DEG C at the speed of 100 DEG C / h, and cooling to
room temperature along with a furnace, wherein
oxygen is introduced with the flow quantity of 3-5 L / minute when the heating is started and introduction of
oxygen is stopped when the pressure is released.
