Aging of piezoelectric properties was investigated in lead-free (1 - x)(Bi1/2Na1/2)TiO3-xBaTiO(3) doped with 1at.% Fe. The relaxor character of the un-poled material prevents macroscopic aging effects, while in the field-induced ferroelectric phase aging p ...
Beyond the possibility of finding a lead-free piezoceramics as replacement for PZT, the world-wide research has focused on other mechanisms of electro-mechanical coupling alternative to piezoelectricity, such as electrostriction and, more recently, flexoel ...
The contribution of non-180 degrees domain wall displacement to the frequency dependence of the longitudinal piezoelectric coefficient has been determined experimentally in lead zirconate titanate using time-resolved, in situ neutron diffraction. Under sub ...
The properties of ferroelectric materials, such as lead zirconate titanate (PZT), are heavily influenced by the interaction of defects with domain walls. These defects are either intrinsic or are induced by the addition of dopants. We study here PbTiO3 (th ...
Single-phase Pb(Fe2/3W1/3)O3 (PFW) multiferroic ceramics doped with magnetic ions were fabricated using a modified B-site precursor method. Dielectric response was investigated over a wide range of temperature and frequency. Doping did not modify the chara ...
A uniaxial compressive stress significantly modifies the dielectric and piezoelectric response of Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 (PZT)-based piezoceramics. In soft PZT, the pre-stress decreases both the piezoelectric coefficient and its increment with increasing dynamical st ...
We reveal a strong elastic interaction between nonferroelastic domain walls in ferroelectric thin films. This interaction, having no analogue in bulk materials, is governed by elastic fields that are associated with the domain walls and extends to distance ...
Reflection and transmission as a function of temperature (7-300 K and 5-300 K respectively) have been measured on single crystals of the multiferroic compound FeTe2O5Br utilizing light spanning from the far infrared to the visible. The complex dielectric f ...
The dielectric response in Bi4Ti3O12 single crystals was studied at subswitching conditions at relative low temperatures (20-250 degrees C) and frequencies (100 mHz to 10kHz) both in-plane and out-of-plane. Electron-holes are likely to be the major charge ...
This thesis consists of a theoretical analysis of charged domain walls in ferroelectrics based on Landau theory and the theory of semiconductors. First, the internal structure of a 180-degree charged domain wall is considered. It is shown that different re ...
