Piezoelectric Properties of BiFeO3 Exposed to High Temperatures

Dragan Damjanovic, Xiaolong Li

BiFeO3 is a ferroelectric with a Curie temperature of 830 C-degrees, however, its piezoelectric performance at high temperature remains unclear. The current work reveals a disappearance/recovery of piezoelectricity in BiFeO3 at elevated temperature and upo ...

Ferroelectric Effects Probed by in situ Transmission Electron Microscopy

Reinis Ignatans

Ferroelectric perovskite oxides are widely used in sensors, actuators and optical modulators and, at the same time, they show promise for implementation in future applications such as energy storage, memory and cooling devices. At the infancy of the discov ...

Decoding the Mechanisms of Phase Transitions from In Situ Microscopy Observations

Vasiliki Tileli, Reinis Ignatans

Analysis of the temperature- and stimulus-dependent imaging data toward elucidation of the physical transformations is an ubiquitous problem in multiple fields. Here, temperature-induced phase transition in BaTiO3 is explored using the machine learning ana ...

Tuning the structural and antiferromagnetic phase transitions in UCr2Si2: Hydrostatic pressure and chemical substitution

Philip Johannes Walter Moll

Structural phase transitions in f-electron materials have attracted sustained attention both for practical and basic science reasons, including the fact that they offer an environment to directly investigate relationships between structure and the f-state. ...

Nanocomposites based on polyvinylidene fluoride– trifluoroethylene copolymer and up to 4 vol % of hydrophobized clay nanoparticles are investigated. The structure, piezoelectric properties, and oxygen permeability of solvent cast films are analyzed before ...

Wiley-Blackwell2017

The crystal structures of silver(I) sulphate, Ag2SO4, have been investigated as a function of temperature. A main feature is the phase transition from the low-temperature ordered phase, F ddd, to the high-temperature disordered phase, P63/mmc. In particula ...

Spin and orbital disordering by hole doping in Pr1-xCaxVO3

Philip Pattison

High-resolution powder x-ray diffraction and single-crystal neutron diffraction were used to investigate the crystal structure and magnetic ordering of the compound Pr1-xCax VO3 (0

Structure and pressure-induced ferroelectric phase transition in antiphase domain boundaries of strontium titanate from first principles

Nava Setter, Alexander Tagantsev, Alexander Kvasov

In this work, using zero kelvin ab initio calculations, we revisit the structure and ferroelectric phase transition in antiphase domain boundaries (APBs) in SrTiO3 (STO), which has been previously addressed in terms of a phenomenological approach. We confi ...

Piezoelectric enhancement under negative pressure

Nava Setter, Alexander Tagantsev, Tomas Sluka, Alexander Kvasov, Silviu Cosmin Sandu, Jin Wang

Enhancement of ferroelectric properties, both spontaneous polarization and Curie temperature under negative pressure had been predicted in the past from first principles and recently confirmed experimentally. In contrast, piezoelectric properties are expec ...
