SrBi2-χNdχNb2O9(χ=0,0.1,0.2 and 0.4)bismuth layer-structured ferroelectric ceramics were prepared by the solid-state reaction sintering method.The accurate position of Nd element in SrBi2-χNdχNb2O9 ceramics was determined by the X-ray Rietveld method and Synchrotron radiation X-ray absorption fine structure(XAFS)technology.The partial substitution of Nd 3+ for Bi 3+ leads to the decrease in the distortion of NbO6 octahedron for SrBi2-χNdχNb2O9 ceramics and also lowers the piezoelectric properties of SrBi2-χNdχNb2O9 ceramics.Meanwhile,the temperature coefficient of resonant frequency(TCF)decreases when Nd element partially replaces Bi element in SrBi2-χNdχNb2O9 ceramics.
