The transverse piezoelectric coefficient (d(31)(star)) has been calculated for tetragonal barium titanate (BT) and lead titanate (PT) cut along nonpolar axes, over a range of temperatures, using the phenomenological Landau-Ginzburg-Devonshire theory. It is ...
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 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 ...
It is shown that a strong but diffuse dielectric anomaly, commonly expected only in disordered ferroelectrics, may be inherent in strained and defect-free perovskite ferroelectric thin films. The origin of this unusual anomaly, which was never predicted fo ...
We present a model for reverse domain nucleation in ferroelectrics, which takes into account ferroelectric-electrode coupling in both homogeneous and random cases. The model provides a solution to the coercivity paradox-i.e., the large discrepancy between ...
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 ...
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 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 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 ...
A ferroelectric film capacitor structure (FeCAP), in particular for memory applications, comprises a layer of doped ferroelectric material between facing electrodes having a varying/asymmetric doping profile, the concentration of the dopant in the ferroele ...
