Surface Modification of Sol–Gel Synthesized Ba0.85Ca0.15Zr0.1Ti0.9O3 using Stearic Acid Additives
This study explores a novel approach to enhance the piezoelectric performance of lead‐free BCZT ceramics synthesized via the sol–gel method. By coating the BCZT powder with only a 0.69 nm stearic acid layer, the electromechanical response is significantly boosted up to 359 pC N−1, revealing promising implications for high‐performance sensor and ...

Laser remelting of a CrMnFeCoNi high‐entropy alloy reveals that optimal chemical homogenization occurs between 30 and 40 J·mm−2. Within this range, elemental segregation is reduced by over 30% compared to the as‐cast state. The study establishes this window as a fast, effective alternative to prolonged annealing for achieving uniform elemental ...
