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 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 ...
This article reviews recent advances in the studies of the piezoelectric properties of perovskite materials. Perovskite compositions are the best known and the largest family of ferroelectric and piezoelectric materials.: The dependence of the longitudinal ...
Piezoelectric response nonlinearity is approached using the Preisach description of hysteretic systems as collection of distributed bistable units. The Preisach model and its recent physical interpretation in terms of moving domain wall in a stochastically ...
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 ...
The dynamic piezoelectric response of SrBi4Ti4O15 ceramics with Aurivillius structure was investigated at high alternating stress, low frequencies (0.01 to 100 Hz), and temperatures from 20 to 200 degreesC. The piezoelectric nonlinearity, observed only at ...
The dynamic piezoelectric response of SrBi4Ti4O15 ceramics with Aurivillius structure was investigated at high alternating stress, low frequencies (0.01 to 100 Hz), and temperatures from 20 to 200 degreesC. The piezoelectric nonlinearity, observed only at ...
The experimentally observed temperature dependence of the quartic coefficients in the Landau-Devonshire expansion for BaTiO3 is naturally accounted for within a proper fluctuation model. It is explained, in particular, why one of the quartic coefficients v ...
The direct observation of blocked polarization domains at the electrode-ferroelectric interface of electrically fatigued ferroelectric films is reported. Blocked nanodomains are believed to be the origin of polarization fatigue in ferroelectric nonvolatile ...
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 ...
