Fracture of ferroelectric ceramics

Ferroelectrics, 1983
Abstract This paper surveys the temperature, microstructural and environmental variations of the fracture properties of ferroelectric ceramics. Earlier work shows that fracture toughness decreases on heating through the Curie temperature. There is also anomalous behavior in the strength at small crack sizes, indicative of a grain size effect.

MECHANICAL PROPERTIES OF FERROELECTRIC CERAMIC NANOCOMPOSITES

International Journal of Nanoscience, 2005
The micro- and nano-indentation techniques and compression tests were employed to determine the mechanical properties of PZT based composites dispersed with Al 2 O 3 nano-particles for comparison. Compared with the reduced modulus, the nano-hardness, which exhibited indentation size effect (ISE), seemed to be more sensitive to the indentation depth ...

Domain switching in polycrystalline ferroelectric ceramics

Nature Materials, 2005
Ferroelectric ceramics are widely used as sensors and actuators for their electro-mechanical properties, and in electronic applications for their dielectric properties. Domain switching--the phenomenon wherein the ferroelectric material changes from one spontaneously polarized state to another under electrical or mechanical loads--is an important ...

Thermodynamic Theory of Ferroelectric Ceramics

Physical Review, 1957
A review of theories of ferroelectricity and of experimental data on ferroelectric ceramics leads to the conclusion that an analytic theory of such ceramics on microscopic basis does not seem feasible. A thermodynamic continuum theory is developed here, which is based on the postulated isomorphism, relevant to small signals only, between a polarized ...

Ultrahigh piezoelectricity in ferroelectric ceramics by design

Nature Materials, 2018
Piezoelectric materials, which respond mechanically to applied electric field and vice versa, are essential for electromechanical transducers. Previous theoretical analyses have shown that high piezoelectricity in perovskite oxides is associated with a flat thermodynamic energy landscape connecting two or more ferroelectric phases.

Ferroelectric and dielectric properties of ferrite-ferroelectric ceramic composites

Journal of Applied Physics, 2013
Particulate composites of ferrite and ferroelectric phases with xNiFe2O4 (NF) and (1 − x)Pb0.988(Zr0.52Ti0.48)0.976Nb0.024O3 (where x = 2, 10, 20, 30, 50, 70, and 100 wt. %) were prepared in situ by sol-gel method. The presence of a diphase composition was confirmed by X-ray diffraction while the microstructure of the composites was studied by scanning

Piezoelectric properties of a ferroelectric ceramic

Strength of Materials, 1984
1. The laser interferometer that was developed has a resolving power of 30 A and ensures an error no greater than 0.05% for the measurement of quasistatic strains, which makes it possible to use the interferometer to study the physicomechanical properties of lowductility ceramics. 2.

Printing with ferroelectric ceramics

Ferroelectrics, 1997
Abstract For printing applications, ferroelectric (FE) material can be poled without electrodes by charging the surface at the image areas in one polarity and the background to the opposite polarity. On the surface of FE-ceramics, high electric fields are produced which are able to attract or repel charged toner particles. This property can be used for

Dielectric properties of the ferroelectric ceramics

Journal of Physics D: Applied Physics, 1998
The temperature and frequency dependences of the permittivity , the dielectric loss factor and the resistance R of the ceramic Ti in the interval 100-800C were studied. A ferroelectric phase transition at temperature C was observed. Hysteresis loops typical for ceramic ferroelectrics were observed. Relaxation maxima of the dielectric loss factor in the
