Oxygen vacancy migration is a key degradation mechanism for the majority of MLCCs. There are limitations with spatially identifying regions of a capacitor that have degraded due to oxygen vacancy migration. This work showcases ultrasonic attenuation as a non‐electrical and nondestructive technique of identifying oxygen vacancy degraded regions of an ...

Scan‐Path‐ and Initial‐State‐Dependent Superdomain Switching in (111)‐Oriented PZT
Scan trajectory and initial superdomain topology govern polarization switching in (111)‐oriented PZT. Automated AFM writing, pulsing experiments, and interferometric 3D‐PFM show that raster scans reproducibly stabilize ordered Type‐I stripe superdomains with constrained variant selection, whereas spiral trajectories generate frustrated mixed‐variant ...
