The low breakdown strength(E_(b)) of dielectric ceramics poses a major bottleneck for achieving high recoverable energy storage density(W rec). In this study, using ingenious chemical component design, we achieved an ultrahigh Eb of 800 kV/cm and an excellent W rec value of 9.48 J/cm^(3) in the simple component 0.92NaNbO_(3)–0.08SmFeO_(3) ceramic. Finite element simulations corroborate that the optimized grain boundary network enables more uniform electric field distribution and effective suppression of breakdown propagation. The superior energy storage characteristics originate from two synergistic mechanisms:(Ι) the incorporation of SmFeO_(3) suppresses grain growth, resulting in refined microstructure with increased grain boundary density that substantially enhances E_(b);(II) the introduction of Sm^(3+) and Fe^(3+) ions causes a mismatch between the A/B site ions, inducing lattice distortion and high disorder, which enhances the local random fields and relaxor behavior. This study establishes a promising pathway for designing high-energy-density dielectric ceramic capacitors.展开更多
