A new paper, co-authored by Electrosciences, is published in Applied Physics Letters. 3D Evolution of the (220) reciprocal space (diffracting) volume during loading and unloading cycles. Electrical switching of ferroelectric domains and subsequent domain wall motion promotes strong piezoelectric activity, however, light scatters at refractive index discontinuities such [...]
A new paper, co-authored by Electrosciences, is published in Applied Physics Letters. Spin density of the system (isosurface level 1⁄4 0.005): O (red), Bi (pink), La (green), Ti (light blue), Co (dark blue), and Fe (yellow) atoms. Multiferroics that simultaneously exhibit ferroelectricity and ferromagnetism have recently attracted great attention due [...]
A new paper, co-authored by Electrosciences, is published in Crystals. Software tools developed to create HKL reciprocal lattice maps In this work, we present a grazing incidence X-ray diffraction study of the surface of a 0.24Pb(In1/2Nb1/2)O3-Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-PbTiO3 (PIN-PMN-PT) [011] poled rhombohedral single crystal. The near surface microstructure (the top several tens [...]
A new paper, co-authored by Electrosciences, points to new ways to control high powered sonar projectors using some of the newest single crystal piezoelectric materials that are becoming commercially available. Experimental measurements taken by Electrosciences in collaboration with the UK XMaS beamline at the ESRF, France, highlights the requirement to control the [...]
New work just publsihed in APL-Materials shows that iron doped ferroelectric barium titanate exhibits multiferroic behaviour. New techniques developed under the European Metrology project 'ADVENT' by Electrosciences Ltd and the XMaS beamline at the ESRF (Synchrotron beamline in Grenoble, France) have shed new light on these materials. Software tools developed [...]
Electrosciences is partner on EU project PETMEM The electronics industry needs a new CMOS transistor technology, and the EU-funded PETMEM project undertook efforts to develop it. The resulting alternative, called a piezoelectronic transduction (PET) transistor, is predicted to be faster and more energy efficient than conventional CMOS transistor alternatives. The project's key [...]
New paper published: 'Bi3.25La0.75Ti2.5Nb0.25(Fe0.5Co0.5)0.25O12, a single phase room temperature multiferroic' J. Mater. Chem. C, 2018, 6, 2733 Multiferroics (MFs) have attracted great research interest due to the coexistence of ferroelectric and magnetic ordering, as well as magnetoelectric (ME) coupling. At present, there is a very limited number of single-phase MFs known and these [...]
With the US electronics giant IBM having recently filed the first patents for piezoelectric transistors, European physicists, materials scientists and metrologists have joined forces in a project called Nanostrain...
Can ferroelectrics be useful in fusion energy applications? Yes, they can! Far reaching review of functional materials for future energy from renewable resources New Review Article published by Royal Society of Chemistry Ferroelectric materials for fusion energy applications Markys. G. Cain, Paul. M. Weaver and Michael. J. Reece J. Mater. Chem. [...]
Electrosciences contributes to many peer reviewed papers published in high quality, high impact scientific journals. Some highlights in 2017/18 Electrosciences has co-authored three new scientific peer reviewed papers with a focus on the ferroelectric behaviour of industrially important piezoelectrics: 1) Low temperature ferroelectric behavior in morphotropic PZT 2) How to determine [...]
