Structural and dielectric investigations were carried out on a perovskite lead-free (Ba1−xCax)(Zr0.05Ti0.95)O3ferroelectric ceramic forx= 0.03, 0.05, 0.08, 0.10, 0.12 and 0.15. The room-temperature structural analysis reveals a crossover from orthorhombic to tetragonal crystal structure nearx= 0.10. A coexistence of tetragonal (P4mm) and orthorhombic (Pmm2) structure is observed in the composition range 0.05 ≤x≤ 0.10. The fraction of tetragonal phase increases from 27% forx= 0.05 to 71% forx= 0.10. The dielectric measurements show that the tetragonal to orthorhombic and rhombohedral to orthorhombic transition temperatures decrease with an increase in Ca2+content, while the cubic to tetragonal transition temperature remains the same. It is also shown that for the tetragonal to orthorhombic transition a phase coexistence occurs over a temperature range of about 18 K. The coexistence range covers room temperature for intermediate compositions:x= 0.05, 0.08 and 0.10. Therefore, higher dielectric and piezoelectric properties are observed in these compositions.
