The material showed attractive properties in terms of a frequency-independent (200 Hz-1 MHz) dielectric response from room temperature to 200°C, extremely low loss and high-energy storage efficiency.

In broader terms, the study illustrates the potential for tailoring relaxor behavior in Pb-free ferroelectrics by combining phenomena, such as quantum fluctuations and lone pair stereochemical effect associated with different solid-solution substitutions.
