Giant photostriction in lead-free ferroelectric stemming from photo-excited thermalized carriers
Gaëlle Vitali-Derrien, Oana Condurache, Antoine Ducournau +14
Ferroelectrics are polar materials whose polarization can be switched by applying electric fields; they offer unique opportunities to develop performant photostrictive materials, i…

Band gap tuning by structural phase transition in Sm-substituted BiFeO3 powders
Christina Hill, Michele Melchiorre, Cosme Milesi-Brault +6
The substitution of bismuth by samarium in BiFeO3 is known to induce a structural phase transition from the polar phase to a non-polar phase, with a possible antiferroelectric inte…
