Abstract Piezoelectrics are key materials for energy conversion, example in ultrasound transducers and harvesters. This work presents the synthesis characterization of lead-free piezoelectric composition (Li 0.06 (K 0.52 Na 0.48 ) 0.94 )(Nb 0.71 Ta 0.29 )O 3 doped with 0.25 mol% Mn (KNNLTM) as textured ceramics. Templated grain growth from NaNbO platelet templates aligned by tape casting was us...
