Description
Technical Field
[0002] This invention belongs to the field of dielectric ceramic materials technology, specifically relating to a lead-free antiferroelectric energy storage ceramic material of AgNbO3 co-doped with multiple heterovalent ions, its preparation method and application. Background Technology
[0004] With the steady advancement of the national "dual carbon" strategy and the rapid development of high-end electronic equipment such as new energy power systems, electric vehicles, pulse power weapons, and industrial frequency converters, there is an unprecedented and urgent demand for high-performance, high-reliability, miniaturized, and lightweight energy storage capacitors.
[0005] As the core component of a capacitor, the performance of the dielectric material directly determines the size, efficiency, and lifespan of the capacitor device and equipment. Currently, dielectric materials can be divided into two main categories: linear dielectric materials and nonlinear dielectric materials. While linear dielectric materials possess a high breakdown electric field (E0), they are less efficient in achieving their full potential. b And lower dielectric loss, due to its smaller maximum polarization (P). max This limits its energy storage density (W). rec There is room for improvement in ferroelectrics. Ferroelectrics in nonlinear dielectrics have higher P values. max However, the remanent polarization intensity (P) r The energy density (W) is relatively high, resulting in higher energy loss and thus lower energy storage density. rec The small size and low conversion efficiency (ƞ) of high-power pulse devices cannot meet the requirements for integration, lightweighting, and miniaturization.
[0006] Compared to other dielectric materials, antiferroelectric (AFE) materials exhibit a larger P-value due to their unique double PE loop. max and P close to zero r Theoretically possessing a high W rec These properties, including η, demonstrate enormous application potential in the field of energy storage.
[0007] Currently, commercially used dielectric energy storage materials heavily rely on lead-based (PbZrO3) antiferroelectric materials. However, lead is highly volatile at high temperatures, polluting the environment and harming health, which contradicts the global consensus on environmental protection and sustainable development. Therefore, developing green, environmentally friendly, high-performance lead-free dielectric energy storage materials to adapt to future development is particularly urgent and a major national strategic need to support my country's high-end manufacturing industry and energy security.
[0008] AgNbO3 (AN), as a typical representative of lead-free AFE materials, possesses the unique double PE loop and large P of AFM materials. m (P) m~52μC / cm 2 ) and P close to zero r In addition to its characteristics, it also has a relatively wide band gap (E g =2.96eV) and has a high breakdown field strength (E b This indicates that this combination can achieve higher W. rec And thus, it has become one of the hot topics in energy storage material research.
[0009] However, AN exhibits abundant phase transition processes at room temperature, in which the M1 phase (Pbcm) contains Pmc21 exhibiting ferrielectricity (FIE), resulting in a large P r The energy loss during the phase transition from antiferroic phase (AFM) to ferroelectric phase (FM) under the action of an electric field is relatively large, resulting in low conversion efficiency and thus hindering its further commercial application.
[0010] In existing technologies, design strategies such as "ion doping or multi-component solid solution" are generally used to enhance the stability of the antiferroelectric phase of AN at room temperature and reduce P. r Improve E b To further optimize its energy storage characteristics.
[0011] In the prior art, patent document with application number CN201910305422.2 discloses the preparation of Ag by solid-state reaction method. 1-3x Tm x NbO3 (0.01≤x≤0.08) antiferroelectric ceramic materials have a storage density of 2.6~4.3 J / cm³. 3 The conversion efficiency is only 38% to 77%, and the energy storage density and conversion efficiency are relatively low.
[0012] In the prior art, patent document with application number CN202211559128.2 discloses the synthesis of AgNbO3 antiferroelectric energy storage ceramics using a hydrothermal reaction method, with an energy storage density reaching 3.8~4.5 J / cm³. 3 The efficiency is relatively low, with a conversion efficiency of only 38.5% to 45.1%, resulting in significant energy loss. Furthermore, the preparation process is relatively complex, leading to a small production volume and hindering mass production.
[0013] In the prior art, patent document with application number CN202111194580.9 discloses the (1-x)AgNbO3-x(Sr) antiferroelectric energy storage ceramic system. 0.7 Bi 0.2 Adding 0.01 BaCu(B₂O₇) as a co-solvent to HfO₃ lowers the sintering temperature and increases the density of the ceramic material. Although the storage density of the prepared ceramic material is 6.1 J / cm³. 3, the conversion efficiency reaches 73%, however, its preparation process is rather cumbersome, the chemical components are relatively complex, and it is not easy to popularize and apply the technology.
[0014] In the prior art, the patent document with the application number 202210689792.2 discloses the preparation of Ag 0.72 K 0.07 Sm 0.07 NbO3 ceramic material, which has an energy storage density of 3.9 6J / cm 3 under an applied electric field of 330 kV / cm and an energy storage efficiency of 73.56%. However, its energy storage density is less than 4J / cm 3 , which is not conducive to the popularization and application of technology.
[0015] In the prior art, the patent document with the application number CN2024102966068 discloses a preparation method of AgNbO3 lead-free antiferroelectric high energy storage density ceramic material co-doped with Bi 3+ and Y 3+ at the A / B site. Its chemical general formula is Ag 1-3x Bi x Nb 1-3x / 5Y x O3 (0 < x ≤ 0.01), where Ag 0.97 Bi 0.01 Nb 0.994 Y 0.01 O3 ceramic has an energy storage density of 5.4J / cm 3 under the breakdown field strength of 190 kV / cm, while the conversion efficiency is only 56%, and the energy loss is relatively large.
[0016] To sum up, in the existing technology of AgNbO3-based lead-free antiferroelectric materials, there are situations where the energy storage density is relatively large (5 - 8J / cm 3 ) while the energy conversion efficiency is relatively low (30% - 60%), or the energy storage density is relatively small (3 - 5J / cm 3 ) while the energy conversion efficiency is relatively high (50% - 70%). Often, one thing is sacrificed for another, and it is impossible to synergistically optimize the polarization non-linearity (directly affecting η) and breakdown field strength (directly affecting W rec ) of AgNbO3-based lead-free antiferroelectric materials, making it difficult to simultaneously achieve a high energy storage density (W rec > 10J / cm³) and a high conversion efficiency (η > 80%) for AgNbO3-based lead-free antiferroelectric materials. This is a key technical problem that urgently needs to be solved at present. Summary of the Invention
[0018] In view of the problems existing in the AgNbO3 antiferroelectric energy storage ceramics in the prior art, such as the instability of the antiferroelectric phase (AFM) at room temperature, large hysteresis loss, weak breakdown resistance, and the inability to balance the energy storage density and energy storage efficiency, the present invention provides a multi - element heterovalent ion co - doped AgNbO3 lead - free antiferroelectric energy storage ceramic material and its preparation method.
