N2 - he morphotropic phase boundary composition Bi1/2Na1/2TiO3-20 mol. % Bi1/2K1/2TiO3 was chosen as initial material to do selective A-site aliovalent doping replacing Na and K by 1 at. % La, respectively. The materials were studied macroscopically by measuring dielectric and electromechanical properties. The Na-replaced material has a lower freezing temperature Tfr, lower remanent polarization and remanent strain, and thus a higher degree of ergodicity than the K-replaced material. These results are contrasted with local poling experiments and hysteresis loops obtained from piezoresponse force microscopy. The faster relaxation of the tip-induced local polarization and the lower remanent state in bias-on and -off loops confirm the higher degree of ergodicity of the Na-replaced material. The difference in functional properties is attributed to small variations in chemical pressure achieved through selective doping. Raman results support this working hypothesis.
