Some Ferroic Perovskite Solid Solutions
We are examining various perovskite solid solutions based on NaNbO3 or BiFeO3 that havepromising ferroelectric or multiferroic properties. All of these solid solutions show... -
Phase diagram of the lead-free ferroelectric Na1-xKxNbO3 at room temperature
The system NaNbO3 ¿ KNbO3 is one of the most widely studied as a ¿green¿ replacement for the piezoelectric material PZT (PbZr1-xTixO3). Despite its enormously growing... -
Local structural effects in doped NaNbO3 ferroelectrics
Derivatives of the perovskite NaNbO3 are currently being studied as benign replacements for piezoelectric Pb(Zr,Ti)O3. In order to understand the structure-composition-property... -
The Definitive Sodium Niobate Phase Diagram?
NaNbO3 has long been regarded as the 'most complex' perovskite known, with at least seven different phases reported as a function of T, at least two of which have evaded all...
