New insights into structural, optical, electrical and thermoelectric behavior of Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 single crystals [PDF]
The single crystals of lead-free Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 were grown using the Czochralski method. The energy gaps determined from X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and optical measurements were approximately 2.92 eV.

Piezoelectric properties of tetragonal single-domain Mn-doped NBT-6 %BT single crystals [PDF]
We report a study of properties of Mn-doped NBT-6 %BT single crystals. We show that tetragonal single-domain states can be stabilized by poling along a [001] direction. For carefully prepared crystals, the piezoelectric coefficient $$d_{33}$$

Chap. 6 : Properties of Na 0.5Bi0.5TiO3 and Na0.5Bi0.5 TiO3-based single crystals
Most studies of ferroelectric materials were focused on polycrystalline ceramics. However, it is difficult to improve their properties significantly (particularly piezoelectric one) due to grain/grain boundaries, compositional homogeneity, isotropic ...
