Abstract: The present invention provides new ferroelectric ceramic materials which can be sintered at a temperature lower than that of the conventional ferroelectric ceramic materials and upon sintering, devices formed of the new ferroelectric ceramic materials possesses excellent piezoelectric properties which are suitable for many industrial applications. The ferroelectric ceramic material includes a composition with a general formula of wPb(Ni1/3Nb2/3)O3-xPb(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O3-yPb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-zPbZrO3-(1?w?x?y?z)PbTiO3, in which 0<w<1, 0<x<1, 0?y<1, 0<z<1, w+x+y+z<1, and 0.5?w+x+y. A method of preparing a ferroelectric ceramic material includes preparing MgNb2O6, ZnNb2O6 and NiNb2O6 powder precursors, mixing the precursors with PbO, TiO2 and ZrO2 to form a mixture and calcining the mixture.
