The results of structural and electrical characterizations of SrTiO3 thin films deposited onto MgO and LaAlO3 substrates by pulsed laser deposition technique are presented. The influence of substrate and annealing procedure on the crystalline structure and ...
The orientation dependence of the longitudinal piezoelectric coefficient, d(33)(*), is investigated as a function of temperature in BaTiO3 and PbTiO3 crystals using the Landau-Ginsburg-Devonshire theory. We show that a presence of the ferroelectric-ferroel ...
Systems with a ferroelectric to paraelectric transition in the vicinity of room temperature are useful for devices. Adjusting the ferroelectric transition temperature (T-c) is traditionally accomplished by chemical substitution - as in BaxSr1-xTiO3, the ma ...
The present study aims at a better understanding of the high piezoelectric properties encountered in lead-based ferroelectrics by focusing on the extrinsic contributions to the response. The main characteristics of these materials are the highly nonlinear ...
The ferroelectric transition of bulk strontium titanate is suppressed by a combination of two effects: (1) the structural changes produced by the antiferrodistortive transition at T-a =105 K and (2) the quantum fluctuations. The structural changes are stro ...
The macroscopic properties of ferroelectric materials depend directly on the domain configuration and the structure of the domain boundaries. For this reason, their study is of great scientific and technological interest. Several models have been developed ...
Novel design of an integrated digital refelction-type phase shifter based on a Barium Strontium Titanate thin-film capacitor is presented. Measured characteristics of the phase shifter am compared with the theoretically predicted ones. ...
The room temperature structure (a-form) of the organic compound p-chlorobenzamide, C7H6ClNO, can be described as a classical three-dimensional periodic superstructure (alpha(s)) and also as a commensurately modulated structure (alpha(m)) in (3 + 1)-dimensi ...
The structure of the antiphase domain boundaries of strontium titanate SrTiO3 that exist at temperatures below the antiferrodistortive transition, is analyzed. It is found that some boundaries are similar to Neel domain walls, as an additional component of ...
Using the Landau-Ginzburg-Devonshire approach, the longitudinal piezoelectric coefficient in an arbitrary direction, d(33)()(theta), was calculated as a function of temperature in tetragonal BaTiO3 crystals. The direction along which d(33)()(theta) is ma ...
