Strong ferroelectric domain-wall pinning in BiFeO3 ceramics

Nava Setter, Dragan Damjanovic, Marija Kosec

We have studied the polarization-electric-field hysteresis, the dielectric permittivity dispersion, the piezoelectric properties, the electric-field-induced strain, and the interrelations between these properties for bismuth ferrite (BiFeO3) ceramics. The ...

Subcoercive cyclic electrical loading of lead zirconate titanate ceramics I: nonlinearities and losses in the converse piezoelectric effect

Dragan Damjanovic

The converse piezoelectric response of Pb(ZrxTi1−x)O3 ceramics is investigated as a function of material composition. The effects of the crystallographic phase and different dopants on piezoelectric nonlinearity are separately examined. For a linear depend ...

High coupling materials for thin film bulk acoustic wave resonators

Janine Conde

Radio frequency (RF) filters based on bulk acoustic wave resonances in piezoelectric thin films have become indispensable components in mobile communications. The currently used material, AlN, exhibits many excellent properties for this purpose. However, i ...

Contributions to the piezoelectric effect in ferroelectric single crystals and ceramics

Dragan Damjanovic

The piezoelectric effect in ferroelectric single crystals and ceramics is investigated considering intrinsic (lattice), and extrinsic (originating mainly from displacement of domain walls) contributions. The focus of the study of intrinsic properties is on ...

Softening and hardening transitions in ferroelectric Pb(Zr,Ti)O3 ceramics

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 ...

The region-by-region polarization switching in ferroelectric Pb(Zr,Ti)O-3 thin films sandwiched between Pt electrodes has been directly observed using piezoelectric scanning probe microscopy. A resolution improved by one order-of-magnitude compared to the ...

2005

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 ...

PbTiO3 thin films were prepared from alkoxide solution precursors and crystallized onto Pt/TiO2/SiO2/Si substrates. Microscopy observations revealed that the complexity of the domain walls structure decreased with the grain size. Dielectric, electrostricti ...

Nonlinear contributions to dielectric and piezoelectric properties in lead zirconate titanate thin films

Nava Setter, Dragan Damjanovic

The ac field dependence of dielectric and piezoelectric response of sol-gel derived Pb(Zr,Ti)O(3)thin films is presented. The nonlinear response of dielectric polarisation and piezoelectrically induced strain at sub-switching fields was studied in terms of ...

1999

Through the use of relations analogous to that of the Rayleigh law, it is demonstrated that the ac electric field dependence of the permittivity of ferroelectric thin films can be described. It is further shown that both reversible and irreversible compone ...
