Effect of manganese doping on the size effect of lead zirconate titanate thin films and the extrinsic nature of dead layers

, 2009
We have investigated the size effect in lead zirconate titanate (PZT) thin films with a range of manganese (Mn) doping concentrations. We found that the size effect in the conventional Pt/PZT/Pt thin-film capacitors could be systematically reduced and ...

Topotatic‐Like Phase Transformation of Amorphous Lead Titanate to Cubic Lead Titanate

Journal of the American Ceramic Society, 2002
The crystallization process of lead titanate (PT) prepared using the polymeric precursor method was investigated using X‐ray diffractometry, Raman spectroscopy, electron microscopy, and X‐ray absorption spectroscopy techniques. The results showed that amorphous PT was formed by an O–Ti–O structure composed of fivefold and sixfold oxygen‐coordinated ...

Opportunities of Semiconducting Oxide Nanostructures as Advanced Luminescent Materials in Photonics

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The review discusses the challenges of wide and ultrawide bandgap semiconducting oxides as a suitable material platform for photonics. They offer great versatility in terms of tuning microstructure, native defects, doping, anisotropy, and micro‐ and nano‐structuring. The review focuses on their light emission, light‐confinement in optical cavities, and

Incorporation of dysprosium ions into PbTiO3 ferroelectric ceramic system [PDF]

Journal of Advanced Dielectrics, 2015
A structural analysis concerning the incorporation of dysprosium into A- and/or B-sites of the lead titanate is shown. The two "boundary" refinements are presented, i.e., Dy2+ substitutes for Pb2+ (Dy3+ substitutes for Ti4+) and Dy3+ substitutes for Pb2+

Synthesis of titanate nanostructures using amorphous precursor material and their adsorption/photocatalytic properties

, 2012
This paper reports on a new and swift hydrothermal chemical route to prepare titanate nanostructures (TNS) avoiding the use of crystalline TiO2 as starting material. The synthesis approach uses a commercial solution of TiCl3 as titanium source to prepare

Intelligent Acousto‐Electrical Metamaterials (IAM) for Sound Source Detection

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Our proposed metamaterial concept enables sound source detection using a single material, in contrast to conventional arrays that require dozens or even hundreds of transducers. We show that the coupled acoustic–vibrational–electrical responses in piezoelectric metamaterials give rise to topology‐governed charge transport, producing distinct voltage ...

Asymmetry of the Ferroelectric Phase Transition in BaTiO3

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Phase transitions are typically assumed to behave identically in forward and reverse. This work shows that in the ferroelectric material barium titanate this is not true: heating drives an abrupt, first‐order jump, while cooling gives a smooth, continuous change.

Ab initio Study of Valley Line on a Total-Energy Surface for Zone-Center Distortions of Ferroelectric Perovskite Oxides BaTiO3 and PbTiO3

, 2004
An ab initio structure optimization technique is newly developed to determine the valley line on a total-energy surface for zone-center distortions of ferroelectric perovskite oxides and is applied to barium titanate BaTiO3 and lead titanate PbTiO3.

Synthesis and properties of Co-doped titanate nanotubes and their optical sensitization with methylene blue [PDF]

, 2013
Here we report on a novel chemical route to synthesize homogenous cobalt doped titanate nanotubes (CoTNT), using an amorphous Co-doped precursor. The influence of the synthesis temperature, autoclave dwell time and metal doping on the structural and ...
