Full-perovskite Pb 0.87 Ba 0.1 La 0.02 (Zr 0.6 Sn 0.33 Ti 0.07 )O 3 (PBLZST) thin films were fabricated by a sol–gel method. These revealed both rhombohedral and tetragonal phases, as opposed to the full-tetragonal phase previously reported in ceramics. The fractions of tetragonal and rhombohedral phases are found to be strongly dependent on film thickness. The fraction of tetragonal grains increases with increasing film thickness, as the substrate constraint throughout the film decreases with film thickness. The maximum of the dielectric constant ( ε m ) and the corresponding temperature ( T m ) are thickness-dependent and dictated by the fraction of rhombohedral and tetragonal phase, with ε m reaching a minimum at 400 nm and T m shifting to higher temperature with increasing thickness. With the thickness increase, the breakdown field decreases, but field-induced antiferroelectric–ferroelectric ( E AFE−FE ) and ferroelectric–antiferroelectric ( E FE−AFE ) switch fields increase. The electrocaloric effect increases with increasing film thickness. This article is part of the themed issue ‘Taking the temperature of phase transitions in cool materials’.

This article reports the development and characterization of a laboratory-based high-resolution X-ray powder diffractometer equipped with a 5.5 T magnet and closed-cycle helium cryostat that is primarily designed for the investigation of magneto-structural phase transitions. Unique features of the diffractometer include the position-sensitive detector, allowing the collection of an entire diffraction pattern at once, and the high energy resolution with Mo Kα 1 radiation. The ability to utilize a lower energy resolution but higher photon flux by switching to an X-ray mirror monochromator makes it a versatile setup for a variety of compounds. In this contribution, details of the design and performance of the instrument are presented along with its specifications.

The polymorph phase stability ranges have been studied for the Bi4V2-xMexO11-y solid solutions with Me = Ga and Zr at room temperature. The formation of orthorhombic α- (x = 0.0 and 0.05) and β-phases (x = 0.1, 0.15) and tetragonal phase (0.2 ≤ x ≤ 0.3) has been revealed in BIGAVOX solid solutions. In BIZRVOX solid solutions, α-phase exists at x ≤ 0.05, while β-phase exists at 0.1 ≤ x ≤ 0.3. The second order phase transitions at ~ 308°C (BIGAVOX) and ~ 270°C (BIZRVOX) have been revealed for solid solutions with x = 0.05 using the SHG and DSC methods. In both systems, the β↔γ-phase transition temperatures have been found to decrease with increasing x.

The magneto–elastic coupling effect correlates to the changes of moment and lattice upon magnetic phase transition. Here, we report that, in the pseudo-binary Laves-phase Tb1-xDyxCo2 system (x = 0.0, 0.7, and 1.0), thermal expansion and magnetostriction can probe the ferrimagnetic transitions from cubic to rhombohedral phase (in TbCo2), from cubic to tetragonal phase (in DyCo2), and from cubic to rhombohedral then to tetragonal phase (in Tb0.3Dy0.7Co2). Furthermore, a Landau polynomial approach is employed to qualitatively investigate the thermal expansion upon the paramagnetic (cubic) to ferrimagnetic (rhombohedral or tetragonal) transition, and the calculated thermal expansion curves agree with the experimental curves. Our work illustrates the correlation between crystal symmetry, magnetostriction, and thermal expansion in ferrimagnetic Laves-phase alloys and provides a new perspective to investigate ferrimagnetic transitions.
