Lanthanum modified lead zirconate titanate (abbreviated as PLZT) Electro-Optical ceramics with various Bi concentration were prepared by a hot-press process. The PLZT ceramic samples all present a single perovskite structure with no second phase detected. Bi3+ ion was considered to mainly enter the A-site of perovskite ABO3 structure of PLZT ceramics by the X-Ray Diffractionanalysis. The maximum permittivity (εm) of the PLZT samples decreased obviously as Bi concentration increased, while their remnant polarization (Pr) decreased slightly. In particular, the PLZT sample with 0.14 wt% Bi doping presented a higher optical transmittance 61.8% (λ = 633 nm), and its electric-induced light scattering performance was found to be improved obviously, the maximum light deduction value of ~47.6% was obtained.
