3 ceramics with a piezoelectric strain constant d
33 as high as 185 pC/N are obtained.The results show that the peak in the dielectric constant curve versus temperature moves rightward with the increase of K content.Accordingly,the temperature corresponding to maximum dielectric constant for the ceramics increases slightly.
