Theoretical Prediction of New High-Performance Lead-Free Piezoelectrics
Abstract
We predict the occurrence of large ferroelectric polarization and piezoelectricity in the hypothetical perovskite-structure oxides, bismuth aluminate (BiAlO 3 ) and bismuth gallate (BiGaO 3 ), using density functional theory within the local density approximation. We show that BiGaO 3 will have a similar structure to PbTiO 3, although with much stronger tetragonal distortion and therefore improved ferroelectric properties. Likewise, BiAlO 3 shares structural characteristics with antiferrodistortive PbZrO 3, but it is also a ferroelectric with large polarization. Therefore, we propose the Bi(Al,Ga)O 3 system as a replacement for the widely used piezoelectric material, Pb(Zr,Ti)O 3 (PZT), that will avoid the environmental toxicity problems of lead-based compounds. Finally, we show that, in both BiAlO 3 and BiGaO 3, the large distortions from the prototypical cubic structure are driven by the stereochemical activity of the Bi lone pair.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
