Ferroelectric Nanowires : an Investigation in Synthesis, Characterization, Functionality, and Modeling of Finite Size Effects

Ferroelectric perovskites exhibit superior dielectric, piezoelectric and ferroelectric properties. Architecting ferroelectrics in the small scale holds interest in both application and fundamental research. Compared to their 2D counterparts – thin films, f ...

Effective-surface-energy approach for size effects in ferroics

Alexander Tagantsev, Nava Setter, Jin Wang

We present a simple approach enabling analytical treatments of size effects in ferroelectric samples of complicated shapes for the cases where long-range depolarizing effects are not involved. The key element of the approach is the presentation of the ener ...

A hybrid absorption-adsorption method to efficiently capture carbon

Berend Smit, Jin Wang, Xiaoqi Zhang

Removal of carbon dioxide is an essential step in many energy-related processes. Here we report a novel slurry concept that combines specific advantages of metal-organic frameworks, ion liquids, amines and membranes by suspending zeolitic imidazolate frame ...

Analysis of composition homogeneity and polarization orientation of PZT submicron fibers by micro-Raman spectroscopy

Nava Setter, Silviu Cosmin Sandu, Jin Wang

Micro-Raman spectroscopy is a convenient tool to probe individual objects with a feature size on the submicron scale. The phase, composition, and orientation of Pb(Zr,Ti)O-3 fibers fabricated via hydrothermal processing have been characterized by this tech ...

Synchrotron X-ray diffraction study on a single nanowire of PX-phase lead titanate

Nava Setter, Silviu Cosmin Sandu, Jin Wang

Synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements of Pb-Ti-O fine acicular crystals (nanowires) of the so-called PX-phase have been performed. The theta-2 theta patterns of the nanowires dispersed on substrates with two different geometries indicated that t ...

Structural Property and Electric Field Response of a Single Perovskite PbTiO3 Nanowire Using Micro X-ray Beam

Nava Setter, Jin Wang

The structural property and electric field response of a single perovskite PbTiO3 nanowire were investigated by means of synchrotron X-ray diffraction (XRD) with a micro X-ray beam. XRD 0-20 patterns and Raman spectra confirmed the formation of the perovsk ...

Negative-pressure-induced enhancement in a freestanding ferroelectric

Nava Setter, Alexander Tagantsev, Marco Cantoni, Silviu Cosmin Sandu, Tomas Sluka, Jin Wang, Alexander Kvasov

Ferroelectrics are widespread in technology(1), being used in electronics and communications(2), medical diagnostics and industrial automation. However, extension of their operational temperature range and useful properties is desired(3-5). Recent developm ...

Piezoelectric enhancement under negative pressure

Alexander Tagantsev, Nava Setter, Silviu Cosmin Sandu, Tomas Sluka, Jin Wang, Alexander Kvasov

Enhancement of ferroelectric properties, both spontaneous polarization and Curie temperature under negative pressure had been predicted in the past from first principles and recently confirmed experimentally. In contrast, piezoelectric properties are expec ...

Mechanism of hydrothermal growth of ferroelectric PZT nanowires

Nava Setter, Silviu Cosmin Sandu, Jin Wang, Alexandre Durussel

The formation mechanism of hydrothermally grown monocrystalline ferroelectric PZT nanowires is investigated. It is shown that the growth proceeds via a two-step process. Particles of the centrosymmetric PX-phase grow initially, having a fibrous morphology ...
