Ferroelectric Polycrystals: Structural and microstructural levers for property engineering via domain-wall dynamics

J. Schultheiß, G. Picht, J. Wang +4

Ferroelectrics have a spontaneous electrical polarization that is arranged into domains and can be reversed by an externally applied field. This high versatility makes them useful…

Domain wall-grain boundary interactions in polycrystalline Pb(Zr0.7Ti0.3)O3 piezoceramics

J. Schultheiß, S. Checchia, H. Uršič +5

Interactions between grain boundaries and domain walls were extensively studied in ferroelectric films and bicrystals. This knowledge, however, has not been transferred to polycrys…

Stochastic model of dispersive multi-step polarization switching in ferroelectrics due to spatial electric field distribution

Ruben Khachaturyan, Jan Schultheiss, Jurij Koruza +1

A stochastic model for polarization switching in tetragonal ferroelectric ceramics is introduced, which includes sequential 90°- and parallel 180°-switching processes and accounts…

Enhancement of the electrocaloric cooling by electric field reversal: simulation and experiment

Yang-Bin Ma, Nikola Novak, Jurij Koruza +3

An improved thermodynamic cycle is proposed, where the cooling effect of an electrocaloric refrigerant is enhanced by applying a reversed electric field. In contrast to conventiona…
