Elastic Properties and Enhanced Piezoelectric Response at Morphotropic Phase Boundaries

Elastic Properties and Enhanced Piezoelectric Response at Morphotropic Phase Boundaries

The search for improved piezoelectric materials is based on the morphotropic phase boundaries (MPB) between ferroelectric phases with different crystal symmetry and available directions for the spontaneous polarization. Such regions of the composition x...
