Finite-size corrections of defect energy levels involving ionic polarization

Alfredo Pasquarello, Stefano Falletta, Julia Anna Wiktor

We develop a scheme for finite-size corrections of vertical transition energies and single-particle energy levels involving defect states with built-in ionic polarization in supercell calculations. The method accounts on an equal footing for the screening ...

Using Gaussian process regression to simulate the vibrational Raman spectra of molecular crystals

Michele Ceriotti, Andrea Grisafi, Mariana Rossi Carvalho

Vibrational properties of molecular crystals are constantly used as structural fingerprints, in order to identify both the chemical nature and the structural arrangement of molecules. The simulation of these properties is typically very costly, especially ...

High Force Density Textile Electrostatic Clutch

Herbert Shea, Ronan Julien Hinchet

Clutches are key elements for blocking or coupling motion in wearable systems such as soft exoskeletons, haptic clothing, and rehabilitation equipment. Electrostatic clutches (ESclutches) are compact and light, making them particularly well-suited for wear ...

Modeling Dielectric Constant Variability in Aggregate Polymers from CV Measurements

Marco Mattavelli, Jean-Michel Sallese, Catherine Dehollain, Diego Ruben Barrettino

Recently a new technique based on capacitive sensing has been developed and used to estimate the amount of moisture in polymers by means of the deviation of the dielectric constant. This technique is expected to be used for in-line monitoring of aggregate ...

Very recently, multiferroic behavior close to the boiling temperature of liquid nitrogen was reported in oxohalide-based Cu2OCl2. In this study, we have established yet another novel mechanism for the origin of charge ordering in multiferroic Cu2OCl2. The ...

Al0.83Sc0.17N Contour-Mode Resonators With Electromechanical Coupling in Excess of 4.5%

Paul Muralt, Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo, Andrea Lozzi

In this paper, we demonstrate the fabrication of contour-mode resonators (CMRs) with Al0.83Sc0.17N as a piezoelectric layer. Moreover, we assess the electromechanical coupling and the maximum achieved quality factor from 150 to 500 MHz. In comparison to pu ...

Design of High Permittivity Polysiloxane Elastomers for Dielectric Elastomer Transducers

Philip Horst Caspari

Dielectric elastomer transducers consist of a dielectric elastomer between two compliant electrodes. When the elastic capacitor is electrically charged, the dielectric elastomer elongates until a balance of elastic and electrostatic force is reached. Elect ...

Self-sensing actuation in piezoelectric actuators has been a growing research topic since 1992, with two main approaches having been identified: either by evaluating the dielectric displacement field within the piezoelectric through a measurement bridge, e ...
