Inverse Domain‐Size Dependence of Piezoelectricity in Ferroelectric Crystals

open access: yesAdvances in Materials, 2021
Piezoelectricity of ferroelectric crystals is widely utilized in electromechanical devices such as sensors and actuators. It is broadly believed that the smaller the ferroelectric domain size, the higher the piezoelectricity, arising from the commonly ...

Unconventional piezoelectric coefficients in perovskite piezoelectric ceramics

open access: yesJournal of Materiomics, 2021
Piezoelectric ceramics exhibit three conventional piezoelectric coefficients, i.e., d33, d31, d15, due to their ∞mm crystal symmetry. Unconventional piezoelectric coefficients, such as d11, d12, d13, d14, d16, etc., can only be extracted from piezoelectric single crystals of special symmetry with specific cut direction.
