Origins of electro-mechanical coupling in polycrystalline ferroelectrics during subcoercive electrical loading

Dragan Damjanovic

The electromechanical coupling in ferroelectric materials is controlled by several coexisting structural phenomena which can include piezoelectric lattice strain, 180 degrees and non-180 degrees domain wall motion, and interphase boundary motion. The struc ...

Recent Advances in Piezoelectric Materials for Electromechanical Transducer Applications

Dragan Damjanovic

Ferroelectricity has made a huge impact on science and technology since Joseph Valasek (then a Ph.D. student at the University of Minnesota) discovered it in 1920, a little longer than 100 years ago. Whereas Dr. Valasek's original research was motivated by ...
