description Piezoelectric ceramics with excellent piezoelectric properties and a high Curie temperature are important for numerous electromechanical devices in a broad range of temperature environments. In this work, the relaxor ferroelectric Pb(Yb<sub>1/2</sub>Nb<sub>1/2</sub>)O<sub>3</sub> end member was selected to be introduced into a BiScO<sub>3</sub>-PbTiO<sub>3</sub> high-temperature piezoelectric ceramic to reduce the dielectric loss and improve the piezoelectric properties while slightly reducing the Curie temperature. The phase structure and dielectric, ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties of 0.025Pb(Yb<sub>1/2</sub>Nb<sub>1/2</sub>)O<sub>3</sub>-(0.975<inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mo>−</mo></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula><i>x</i>)BiScO<sub>3</sub>-<i>x</i>PbTiO<sub>3</sub> (0.60 ≤ <i>x</i> ≤ 0.63) ceramics were systematically analyzed, and the best electrical properties were observed in the morphotropic phase boundary region <i>x</i> = 0.61 with <i>d</i><sub>33</sub> = 370 pC/N, <i>k</i><sub>p</sub> = 44%, <i>P</i><sub>r</sub> = 33.9 μC/cm<sup>2</sup>.
