AbstractMultilayer capacitors were made from Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3 compositon by an usual technique: ceramic green sheets formed by slip casting method, printed with an 70% wt Ag- 30% wt Pd internal electrode and sintered at temperature ranging from 950 to 11OO°C. Chip capacitors exhibit large capacitance and temperature characteristics meet Z5U specification. Electrical properties of MLC based on PMN depend on specific parameters such as the average concentration of pyrochlore phase and perovskite phase, and the homogeneity degree of dielectric layers. Load humidity life tests show a degradation of some chips which can be connected with the formation of a surface layer rich in pyrochlore phase.

Multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC) are essential components for determining the reliability of electronic components in terms of time to failure. It is known that the reliability of MLCCs depends on their composition, processing, and operating conditions. In this present work, we analyzed the lifetime of three similar X7R type MLCCs based on BaTiO3 by conducting High Accelerated Life Tests (HALT) at temperatures up to 200 °C at 400 V and 600 V. The results were adjusted to an Arrhenius equation, which is a function of the activation energy (Ea) and a voltage stress exponent (n), in order to predict their time to failure. The values of Ea are in the range of 1–1.45 eV, which has been reported for the thermal failure and dielectric wear out of BaTiO3-based dielectric capacitors. The stress voltage exponent value was in the range of 4–5. Although the Ea can be associated with a failure mechanism, n only gives an indication of the effect of voltage in the tests. It was possible to associate those values with each type of tested MLCC so that their expected life could be estimated in the range of 400–600 V.

We present the technology of the solid solution with formula (1-y)[(1-x)Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-xPbTiO3]-yPb(Fe1/2Nb1/2)O3 where x=0.25, y=0.1 i.e. 0.9(0.75PMN-0.25PT)-0.1PFN. The addition of PFN decreases the temperature of final sintering and as a result such composition is interesting material for multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC). The powder of 0.9(0.75PMN-0.25PT)-0.1PFN has been obtained in three steps. In first step we obtained MgNb2O6. In second step FeNbO4 was obtained. In final third step the 0.9(0.75PMN-0.25PT)-0.1PFN was obtained from mixed powders MgNb2O6, FeNbO4 and PbO and TiO2. For obtained ceramics the following investigations have been made: XRD patterns, microstructure, EDS and main dielectric properties v.s. temperature. It has been stated that obtained ceramic powder is a good material for obtaining MLCC

Electrical homogeneity is vital in optimising energy storage performance in BiFeO3–BaTiO3–xBi(Li0.5Nb0.5)O3 ceramic multilayer capacitors, giving rise to high recoverable energy density ∼13.8 J cm−3 under electric field ∼950 kV cm−1 and fatigue resistance behaviour.
