Induced giant piezoelectricity in centrosymmetric oxides

Paul Muralt, Dragan Damjanovic, Mahmoud Hadad, Vasiliki Tileli, Lukas Riemer, Daesung Park

Piezoelectrics are materials that linearly deform in response to an applied electric field. As a fundamental prerequisite, piezoelectric materials must have a noncentrosymmetric crystal structure. For more than a century, this has remained a major obstacle ...

Piezoelectric Coefficients of AlScN Thin Films in Comparison

Paul Muralt, Ramin Matloub Aghdam, Mahmoud Hadad

Since the discovery of a high piezoelectric response in AlScN by Akiyama and coworkers in 2009, a number of works of other groups confirmed the large increase of piezoelectricity when partially substituting Al cations by Sc cations, as long as the alloy gr ...
