The weak-field dielectric properties of ordered, disordered, and lead-deficient disordered Pb(Sc0.5Ta0.5)O-3 (PST) ceramics (PST-O, PST-D, and PST-DV, respectively) were investigated under various de-bias conditions. The de-bias field influences the parael ...
Poling of calcium and zirconium modified lead titanate pyroelelectric thin films has been studied, Poling temperature and electrical field were optimized to achieve high figure of merits. It was found that thermal activation is important to obtain highly p ...
Sol-gel processing parameters of Pb0.99Zr0.55Sn0.37Ti0.06Nb0.02O3 thin films were studied. Effects of H2O, HNO3 and formamide additives on solution gelation and film properties were investigated. Thin films were prepared on Ti/Pt and Ta/Pt metallized Si su ...
Unlike Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O-3 and similar ferroelectric relaxors which never truly become ferroelectric at zero-field, disordered Pb(Sc1/2Ta1/2)O-3 (PST) is a relaxer that spontaneously transforms into a ferroelectric phase. The control of the degree of order o ...
In the present study, piezoelectric, conductivity and dielectric measurements have been performed on virgin and fatigued ferroelectric PZT thin films prepared by spin-on sol-gel deposition process on Si/SiO2/Ti/Pt substrates. By fatiguing, the polarisation ...
The piezoelectric properties of lead zirconate titanate (PZT) thin films deposited on thick silicon substrates and thin silicon membranes were investigated using optical interferometry. The effect of the geometrical constraints and clamping effects on the p ...
Through the use of relations analogous to that of the Rayleigh law, it is demonstrated that the ac electric field dependence of the permittivity of ferroelectric thin films can be described. It is further shown that both reversible and irreversible compone ...
The dielectric and piezoelectric response of ferroelectric thin films and ceramics was investigated as a function of the driving field amplitude. Detailed analysis of the amplitude and phase angle of the third harmonic of the dielectric displacement and pi ...
