Electrostriction coefficient of ferroelectric materials from ab initio computation [PDF]
Electrostriction is an important material property that characterizes how strain changes with the development of polarization inside a material. We show that ab initio techniques developed in recent years can be exploited to compute and understand ...

Lagrangian description of Brillouin scattering and electrostriction in nanoscale optical waveguides
The diffraction of light by sound waves is known as Brillouin scattering. In optical waveguides, Brillouin scattering can arise from both bulk contributions, modelled by photoelasticity, and surface contributions, which are due to the waveguide ...

Revealing the Giant Electromechanical Effects in Yttria-Stabilized Zirconia Single Crystal. [PDF]
Giant electromechanical responses are uncovered in yttria‐stabilized zirconia single crystal (SC‐YSZ), exhibiting pronounced orientation dependence. The giant electrostriction and piezoelectricity are directly correlated with the long‐range transport kinetics of oxygen vacancies.

Generation of phonons from electrostriction in small-core optical waveguides
We investigate the generation of acoustic phonons from electrostriction of optical waves in small core waveguides. We specifically consider simple step-index strip waveguides composed of silica or silicon in air, with sub-micron lateral dimensions.

Atomically engineered interfaces yield extraordinary electrostriction
: Electrostriction is a property of dielectric materials whereby an applied electric field induces a mechanical deformation proportional to the square of that field. The magnitude of the effect is usually minuscule (

Abstract If the bulb of an ordinary thermometer be coated chemically with silver, and then electrically with a metallic deposit, the mercury will traverse some portion of the scale, and finally take up a definite position, independently of temperature. To this phenomenon I have given the name electrostriction.
