Weak Fields

The dynamic piezoelectric response of SrBi4Ti4O15 ceramics with Aurivillius structure was investigated at high alternating stress, low frequencies (0.01 to 100 Hz), and temperatures from 20 to 200 °C. The piezoelectric nonlinearity, observed only at high pressures (>10 MPa) and elevated temperatures (>150 °C), is interpreted in terms of contributions from non-180° domain walls. At weak fields, the frequency dependence of the longitudinal piezoelectric coefficient was explained in terms of Maxwell–Wagner piezoelectric relaxation. The Maxwell–Wagner units are identified as colonies that consist of highly anisotropic grains which sinter together, and whose distribution in the ceramic is strongly dependent on sintering conditions.

Antimony Sulfoiodide

In this paper, ferroelectric antimony sulfoiodide (SbSI) nanowires have been used to produce composites for device fabrication, which can be used for energy harvesting and sensors. SbSI is a very useful material for nanogenerators and nanosensors in which the high values of the piezoelectric coefficient (d33 = 650 pC/N) and the electromechanical coefficient (k33 = 0.9) are essential. Alternatively, cellulose and epoxy resin were matrix materials in these composites, whereas SbSI nanowires fill the matrix. Piezoelectric response induced by vibrations has been presented. Then, a composite with an epoxy resin has been used as an element to construct a fiber-reinforced polymer piezoelectric sensor. For the first time, comparison of piezoelectric properties of cellulose/SbSI and epoxy resin/SbSI nanocomposite has been presented. The influence of concentration of SbSI nanowires for properties of epoxy resin/SbSI nanocomposite and in a fiber-reinforced polymer based on them has also been shown. Results of aligning the SbSI nanowires in the epoxy matrix during a curing process have been presented as well.

Flexoelectricity describes the physical phenomenon of the generation of electric polarization from mechanical strain gradient in solid insulators. In common dielectric materials, the flexoelectric coefficient is trivially small ~10-10 C/m. In Ba(Sr,Ti)O 3 (BST) ceramics, flexoelectric coefficient up to 10-4 C/m was observed. Such high coefficient makes it possible to design high piezoelectric response flexoelectric composites. In this letter, we will demonstrate that the newly designed flexoelectric composites could have piezoelectric properties better than conventional piezoelectric materials.
