The need for efficient energy utilization is driving research into ways to harvest ubiquitous
waste heat. Here, we explore pyroelectric energy conversion from low-grade thermal …

Both the pyroelectric and electrocaloric effects originate from the cross-coupling between
polarization and temperature in insulating dielectrics. Although both effects have been …

The prediction that the piezoelectric tensor is diverging at the critical point is verified for
BaTiO 3 (BTO), which is the oldest perovskite structured ferroelectric material with an …

A dramatic influence of bias field on pyroelectric response was revealed for ceramics of (1-x)
Pb (Mg1/3Nb2/3) O3-xPbTiO3 with x= 0.075, 0.33 and 0.98 Pb (Fe1/2Nb1/2) O3–0.02 …

We discuss the nature of the thermally stimulated acoustic emission (AE) in single crystals of
PbMg 1/3 Nb 2/3 O 3–PbTiO 3 (PMN-PT). In particular, we derive an expression describing …

Dielectric and pyroelectric studies of PbFe0. 5Ta0. 5O3 ceramics have been carried out
under different bias field values. E, T-phase diagram has been constructed using these data …

oriented unpoled relaxor ferroelectric Pb (In1/2Nb1/2) O3-Pb (Mg1/3Nb2/3) O3-PbTiO3
crystals are studied by means of acoustic emission and dielectric methods in dependence …

It has been found out that compositional ordering degree of the Yb3+ and M5+ (M–Nb, Ta)
ions in Pb2YbМO6 ceramics and, correspondingly, both temperature and diffusion of …

For sodium niobate (NaNbO3) ceramics containing in the nonpoled state about 30% of the
ferroelectric Q phase, the temperature dependences of the dielectric constant ε and …

Dielectric and pyroelectric studies of lead-free uniaxial relaxor Sr0. 75Ba0. 25Nb2O6
(SBN75) single crystals have been carried out under different bias field values. E, T-phase …
