A molecular perovskite solid solution with piezoelectricity stronger than lead zirconate titanate

open access: yesScience, 2019
A flexible strategy for piezoelectrics Piezoelectric materials produce charge when they are deformed, making them ideal for various types of sensors. However, virtually all piezoelectric materials are ceramics, which are far from ideal for applications ...

Enhanced piezoelectricity from highly polarizable oriented amorphous fractions in biaxially oriented poly(vinylidene fluoride) with pure β crystals

open access: yesNature Communications, 2020
Piezoelectric polymers hold great potential for various electromechanical applications, but only show low performance, with |d33 | < 30 pC/N. We prepare a highly piezoelectric polymer (d33 = −62 pC/N) based on a biaxially oriented poly(vinylidene ...

Piezoelectricity in the Intervertebral disc

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanics, 2020
Lower back pain is a major global health challenge that can often be caused by degeneration of the Intervertebral Disc (IVD). While IVD biomechanics are a key factor in the degenerative cycle, many mechanotransduction pathways remain unknown, in particular the electro-mechanical coupling in the loaded tissue. However, despite evidence for a role in the

Nanotube Piezoelectricity

open access: yes, 2003
We combine ab initio, tight-binding methods and analytical theory to study piezoelectric effect of boron nitride nanotubes. We find that piezoelectricity of a heteropolar nanotube depends on its chirality and diameter and can be understood starting from ...

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 ...
