The mechanism for the enhanced piezoelectricity in multi-elements doped (K,Na)NbO3 ceramics

The mechanism for the enhanced piezoelectricity in (K,Na)NbO3 based ceramics has not been fully understood. Here, the authors find that the dopants induced tetragonal phase and the accompanying high-density nanoscale heterostructures are responsible for the high dielectric and piezoelectric properti...
