Tailoring Crystallographic Texture Through Direct Ink Writing of Piezoelectric Ceramics

open access: yesJournal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 109, Issue 4, April 2026.
A novel additive manufacturing approach is demonstrated, using needle‐like template particles with preferred crystallographic orientation that align during additive manufacturing. This combines freedom in geometrical design with local crystallographic control that can increase functional properties, here demonstrated as a doubling of the piezoelectric ...
