Room‐temperature dislocation plasticity in ceramics: Methods, materials, and mechanisms
Abstract Dislocation‐mediated plastic deformation in ceramic materials has sparked renewed research interest due to the technological potential of dislocations. Despite the long research history of dislocations as one‐dimensional lattice defects in crystalline solids, the understanding of plastically deformable ceramics at room temperature seems ...

Abstract The domain structures and piezoelectric properties of polycrystalline orthorhombic 0.5(Ba0.7Ca0.3)TiO3‒0.5Ba(Zr0.2Ti0.8)O3 (BCZT50) polarized by various poling methods were investigated. Semiquantitative analysis using a scanning electron microscope revealed that the domain size dD of BCZT50 polarized by alternating current poling (AC‐poling ...

Abstract Oxide‐halide perovskite upside‐down composites have been demonstrated for recycling heavy‐eco‐footprint piezoceramics. However, options for the binders are limited. As the binder significantly affects the electrical properties of the recycled materials, the available binder material pool needs to be expanded.

Abstract Ferroelastic BiVO4 has charged surface domains, even though its crystal structure is non‐polar. These charged domains can be detected by piezo‐force microscopy and lead to spatially selective photochemical reactions. The photochemical reactivity of (Bi0.96Na0.04)(V0.92Mo0.08)O4 is studied above and below the ferroelastic transition temperature

Cyanothiazoles, paired with copper(I) iodide, form complexes with luminescent properties. X‐ray crystallography revealed two types of coordination polymers, while spectroscopic, synchrotron, and electric measurements supported by density functional (DFT) calculations studies highlighted their unique electronic features, offering a foundation for future

Individual dislocation identification in dark‐field X‐ray microscopy
Experimental and simulated dark‐field X‐ray microscopy images of isolated dislocations in bulk single‐crystal aluminium were combined to identify the Burgers vector, slip plane and line direction of the dislocations. Burgers vector identification missed only the sign, and the line direction was determined with an error of less than 10°, sufficient for ...

Tailoring charge transport in BaTiO3 crystals through dislocation engineering
Abstract Dislocations in oxide ceramics significantly influence their physical properties by creating substantial local strain fields, new electronic states, and space‐charge layers. In this study, we investigated the effects of mechanically introduced dislocations on the electrical conductivity of BaTiO3 single crystals.

Dislocation‐induced local symmetry reduction in single‐crystal KNbO3 observed by Raman spectroscopy
Abstract In recent years, dislocation‐tuned functionalized ceramics have become one of the focal points of modern materials research due to their outstanding properties. These range from improved electrical conductivity and ferroelectric properties to dislocation‐enhanced toughening and superconductivity, caused by local strain fields.

Preferential chemical oxygen diffusion along dislocation networks in SrTiO3
Abstract The properties of SrTiO3 (STO), a well‐known and often employed model material of transition metal oxides with perovskite structure, have been the subject of numerous studies over the last decades. However, even fundamental mechanisms such as the reaction of STO to changes in oxygen activity are still not yet fully understood.
