Dielectric and piezoelectric properties of K(Ta0.51Nb0.49)O3 [KTN] single crystals along [100], [001] and [011] pseudo-cubic crystallographic orientations are reported and discussed. Temperature dependencies of dielectric permittivity in tetragonal phase o ...
Orthorhombic Lead metaniobate (PbNb2O6) exhibits ferroelectric properties and has a Curie temperature, TC of 570 degrees C. This work reports on investigations made on ferroelectric Lead metaniobate, (PN) and its solid solutions with bismuth and titanium P ...
The role of long-range strain interactions on domain wall dynamics is explored through macroscopic and local measurements of nonlinear behavior in mechanically clamped and released polycrystalline lead zirconate-titanate (PZT) films. Released films show a ...
A uniaxial compressive stress significantly modifies the dielectric and piezoelectric response of Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 (PZT)-based piezoceramics. In soft PZT, the pre-stress decreases both the piezoelectric coefficient and its increment with increasing dynamical st ...
A first-principles-based effective Hamiltonian technique is developed to study flexoelectricity in (Ba0.5Sr0.5)TiO3 thin films of different thicknesses in their paraelectric phase. The magnitude as well as sign of individual components of the flexoelectric ...
Dielectric properties of K(Ta0,53Nb0,47)O-3 [KTN] single crystals with < 100 > and < 011 > crystallographic orientation were studied. Temperature dependencies of dielectric permittivity of monodomain and polydomain crystals of these orientations are compar ...
Dielectric properties of K(Ta0,55Nb0,45)O-3 [KTN] single crystals with < 100 > and < 011 > crystallographic orientation were studied. Temperature dependencies of dielectric permittivity of monodomain and polydomain crystals of these orientations are compar ...
The stability of Ising 180-degree domain walls with respect to appearance of chirality is analytically studied in tetragonal perovskite-type ferroelectrics taking into account electro-mechanical coupling. It is shown that the widely used approximation negl ...
Lead zirconate titanate (Pb(Zr1-xTix)O3 or PZT) ferroelectric ceramics have been widely used in transducers, actuators, and sensors, since they posses high dielectric and piezoelectric properties with a relatively high temperature of operation. Commerciall ...
Interdigitated electrode (IDE) systems with lead zirconate titanate (PZT) thin films play an increasingly important role for two reasons: first, such a configuration generates higher voltages than parallel plate capacitor-type electrode (PPE) structures, a ...
