Hysteretic and nonlinear dielectric behaviour in ferroelectric ceramics has been of interest since 1950s, when these materials found application in various electronic devices. Presently, these phenomena concern with important areas of science, technology a ...
Strontium barium niobate (SrxBa1-xNb2O6, shortly SBN) is a solid solution system with tetragonal tungsten bronze crystal structure. It exhibits a ferroelectric phase with only one polar axis and a transition temperature depending on the Sr/Ba ratio. This t ...
Relaxor-ferroelectric single crystals PZN-xPT [(1-x)Pb(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O3-xPbTiO3] and PMN-xPT [(1-x)Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-xPbTiO3] continue to attract much interest due to their anomalously large piezoelectric properties (d33 > 2000 pm/V; k33 > 90%) when poled ("do ...
The continuous downscaling of microelectronic circuits combined with increasing interest in ferroelectric thin films for non-volatile random access memories (FeRAM) is drawing great attention to small ferroelectric thin film structures. There are various c ...
Understanding of polarization reversal mechanisms in ferroelectric films is essential for evaluation and prediction of the properties of ferroelectric devices including nonvolatile memories. The widely accepted approach based on the domain wall motion kine ...
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 ...
The pyroelectric coefficients of 0.72Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O-3-0.28PbTiO(3) (PMN-28PT), 0.67Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O-3-0.33PbTiO(3) (PMN-33PT), and 0.92 Pb(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O-3-0.08PbTiO(3) (PZN-8PT) single crystals, oriented and poled along three different crystallographic dire ...
The influence of the uniaxial bias stress on the piezoelectric properties of tetragonal BaTiO3 and PbTiO3 monodomain crystals is modeled in the framework of the phenomenological Landau-Ginzburg-Devonshire theory. It is shown that tensile and compressive st ...
Thin film piezoelectric materials offer a number of advantages in microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), due to the large motions that can be generated, often with low hysteresis, the high available energy densities, as well as high sensitivity sensors wit ...
The coupling and transmission of transverse and longitudinal fields into apertureless microfabricated near-field optical probes is investigated. Two kinds of probes with different metal coating roughness are considered. Transverse and longitudinal field di ...
