Dynamics of relaxor ferroelectrics [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review B, 2001
We study a dynamic model of relaxor ferroelectrics based on the spherical random-bond---random-field model and the Langevin equations of motion. The solution to these equations is obtained in the long-time limit where the system reaches an equilibrium state in the presence of random local electric fields.

Structure factor of a relaxor ferroelectric

open access: yesPhysical Review B, 2015
We study a minimal model for a relaxor ferroelectric including dipolar interactions, and short-range harmonic and anharmonic forces for the critical modes as in the theory of pure ferroelectrics together with quenched disorder coupled linearly to the critical modes.

Relaxor Ferroelectric Polymers: Insight into High Electrical Energy Storage Properties from a Molecular Perspective

open access: yesSmall Science, 2021
Relaxor ferroelectric polymers exhibit both high dielectric constants and low remnant polarization and thus deliver much higher energy densities and greater charge–discharge efficiencies than normal ferroelectrics for capacitive energy storage ...

Ferroelectricity and Self-Polarization in Ultrathin Relaxor Ferroelectric Films [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2016
AbstractWe report ferroelectricity and self-polarization in the (001) oriented ultrathin relaxor ferroelectric PMN-PT films grown on Nb-SrTiO3, SrRuO3 and La0.7Sr0.3MnO3, respectively. Resistance-voltage measurements and AC impedance analysis suggest that at high temperatures Schottky depletion width in a 4 nm thick PMN-PT film deposited on Nb-SrTiO3 ...

Vogel-Fulcher analysis of relaxor dielectrics with the tetragonal tungsten bronze structure : Ba6MNb9O30 (M = Ga, Sc, In) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In-depth analysis of the relaxor behaviour of Ba6MNb9O30 (M= Ga, Sc, In) tetragonal tungsten bronze (TTB) ceramics was carried out. Powder x-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy were performed in order to confirm the formation of desired ...

Origin of the enhanced flexoelectricity of relaxor ferroelectrics [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Physics Letters, 2014
We have measured the bending-induced polarization of Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-PbTiO3 single crystals with compositions at the relaxor-ferroelectric phase boundary. The crystals display flexocoupling coefficients f > 100 V, an order of magnitude bigger than the theoretical upper limit set by the theories of Kogan and Tagantsev.

Theoretical prediction of electrocaloric effect based on non-linear behaviors of dielectric permittivity under temperature and electric fields

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2015
The electrocaloric (EC) effect has been paid great attentions recently for applications on cooling or electricity generation. However, the directly commercial measurement equipment for the effect is still unavailable.

NMR and the local structure of relaxors [PDF]

open access: yesScience of Sintering, 2002
The relaxor transition in cubic perovskite relaxors (PMN, PSN and PST) and tungsten bronze relaxor (SBN) has been studied by NMR. The observed spectra are composed of a narrow -1/2 « 1/2 central transition superimposed on a broad background due to ...

Understanding the large strain behavior in the lead-free doped Bi1/2(Na0.78K0.22)1/2TiO3–BiMg1/2Ti1/2O3 (BNKT-BMT) piezoelectric system

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2020
The ternary solid solution Bi1/2(Na0.78K0.22)1/2TiO3-BiMg1/2Ti1/2O3 (BNKT-BMT) was investigated for high-strain actuator applications. This study of the BNKT-BMT system looked at the macroscopic properties as a function of BMT doping, temperature, and ...

Strong Lead‐Free Bioinspired Piezoceramics for Durable Energy Transducers

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
We fabricated brick‐and‐mortar lead‐free piezoceramics with Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 monocrystal platelets as bricks and amorphous silica as mortar. The alignment of the bricks and the presence of the amorphous silica led to anisotropic residual stresses. These residual stresses increase the samples toughness, strength and durability while the brick alignment ...
