ABSTRACT
CaBi1.5La0.5Nb2O9 ceramics were prepared by a conventional solid-state reaction method. Their structure and dielectric properties were investigated. X-ray diffraction analysis indicated that single phase layered perovskites were obtained. Dielectric studies demonstrated that CaBi1.5La0.5Nb2O9 is characteristic of relaxor ferroelectrics. The dielectric relaxation of CaBi1.5La0.5Nb2O9 was modeled using the Vögel-Fulcher relationship, and the dielectric relaxation in CaBi1.5La0.5Nb2O9 is found to be analogous to a spin glass with thermally activated polarization fluctuations above a static freezing temperature.
