Temperature dependence of the coercive stress in rhombohedral PZT ceramics
The aim of the proposed experiment is to determine the temperature dependence of the coercive stress, i.e. the critical stress required to induce ferroelastic domain switching,... -
Pressure and Temperature-Induced Phase Transformations in PbZrO3-BiFeO3 Ceramics
The proposed experiment involves identification of the phase boundaries and determination of the crystal structures of PbZrO3-BiFeO3 (PZ-BF) ceramics as a function of... -
Influence of temperature on the ferroelectric-antiferroelectric phase switchi...
The proposed experiment is concerned with the rhombohedral ferroelectric (FE) to orthorhombic antiferroelectric (AFE) phase transformation in PZT (lead zirconate titanate)... -
Local Structure within Fluorite-Pyrochlore Solid Solutions
