The X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns revealed that the primary phase in these ceramics was pseudocubic. The Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) micrographs exhibited dense microstructures throughout all BNFO–BTO ceramics. Furthermore, the temperature dependence of dielectric behaviors and ferroelectric hysteresis loop shapes suggested the occurrence of a relaxor ferroelectric-type phase transition in BNFO–BTO ceramics.

The change of the domain wall shape under the ion beam irradiation in lithium niobate

Elena Pashnina, Alla Slautina, Andrey Akhmatkhanov, Maria Chuvakova, and Vladimir Shur

In this paper, we present the study of the shape change on the polar surface and in the bulk of the walls of lamellar domains as a result of local switching by focused ion beam. Periodical lamellar domain structures (PDS) are created alternatively by two methods: (i) electric-field poling using photolithographically de In this paper, we present the study of the shape change on the polar surface and in the bulk of the walls of lamellar domains as a result of local switching by focused ion beam. Periodical lamellar domain structures (PDS) are created alternatively by two methods: (i) electric-field poling using photolithographically defined electrodes and (ii) ion beam poling. The dot irradiation of Z

^{+}

areas near the walls of lamellar domains leads to the formation of faceted or rounded hexagonal domains. For e-field PDS additional formation of nanodomain ensembles was observed. We have revealed two types of domain wall shape changes induced by irradiation: (1) merging of the hexagonal domain with the domain wall for Z

^{+}

areas; (2) formation of rounded distortion of the domain wall for Z^? areas. For Z

^{+}

areas irradiation, the domain wall distortion was described by a simple model of independent growth of isolated domain with its subsequent merging with a static domain wall. For Z^? surface irradiation, the domain wall shift increases linearly with the distance between the irradiation dot and the wall. It was revealed that the merging between the growing hexagonal pyramid domain and lamellar domain can be obtained in the bulk even for absence of merging at the surface. All obtained results have been explained within a kinetic approach to the domain wall motion by step generation. The switching field consists of inputs produced by: (i) the charges injected during dot irradiation into the photoresist layer and crystal bulk, (ii) the charges injected during the creation of i-beam PDS, (iii) the depolarization fields. The transition of the shapes of isolated domains and wall distortions from faceted to rounded ones with field increase was attributed to the transition from determined step generation to stochastic one..showLess

Samples of piezoactive CMC were obtained by joint sintering of synthesized PZT piezoceramic powder (matrix) and crushed particles of sintered PZT piezoceramics (filler) of different compositions. The experimental dependencies of real and imaginary parts of the complex dielectric constant of CMC on the porosity of piezoceramic matrix and volume content of ceramic filler particles were measured and analyzed. It was shown that the additional porosity of the ceramic matrix resulting from sintering of the CMC masks the dielectric percolation transition, that actually occurs at the volume concentration of ceramic filler close to percolation threshold (V ～ 1/3)..showLess

Electronic and dielectric properties are essential for understanding many functional materials, predicting their behavior and optimizing their performance across different shapes, geometries and scales. Several approaches were developed and explored to investigate more or less deeply the appropriate properties. One of Electronic and dielectric properties are essential for understanding many functional materials, predicting their behavior and optimizing their performance across different shapes, geometries and scales. Several approaches were developed and explored to investigate more or less deeply the appropriate properties. One of the most appealing, accurate and efficient approach is first principle simulations based on modern theory of polarization. Especially with the increased availability of powerful computational resources and techniques. Building upon these advancements, our contribution aims to elucidate an efficient methodology for studying electronic and dielectric properties by applying the Berry phase and Maximally Localized Wannier functions methods. Our exploration will initially focus on a systematic study of the electronic, chemical bonding, ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties of the well-known prototypical bulk system PbTiO₃. Subsequently, we will extend our study to examine slab properties as surface termination and slab thickness effect on electronic properties, utilizing the robust Wannier-justified Tight Binding model..showLess

Synthesis of BiFeO₃/ZnO heterojunction with enhanced piezocatalytic performance for highly-effective degradation of organic pollutant

Yao Feng, Jinhua Li, and Hao Yan

In this work, a series of BiFeO3/ZnO composites with varying molar ratio of BiFeO3 to ZnO (Bi:Zn = 2.5:1, 5:1, 10:1, 20:1) have been synthesized via a one-step hydrothermal method and evaluated for their efficiency in rhodamine B (RhB) degradation performance.

The morphology results reveal that the microsphere-shaped ZnO is dispersed on the surface of the blocky-like BiFeO₃, with intimate contact between the two phases. It has been found that the maximum piezocatalytic activity could be achieved at BiFeO₃/ZnO molar ratio of 5:1, with a degradation rate up to 92% for RhB. Compared with pure BiFeO₃ and ZnO, the composites have superior piezocatalytic degradation performance. The reason for the enhanced piezocatalytic dye degradation rate may be that the BiFeO₃/ZnO composites effectively separate the positive and negative charges to reduce the recombination of positive and negative charges. These active species, such as superoxide radicals (

O_{2} ? ?

) in the process of piezocatalytic, are proved on the active species capture experiments. The BiFeO₃/ZnO composites have good piezocatalytic degradation performance, which provides an option for collecting vibration energy to degradation dye wastewater in the future..showLess
