This research investigates the electric-field-induced strain in Fe-doped Barium Titanate single crystals activated by an AC electric field.
Utilized aged 1 mol% Fe-doped BaTiO3 single crystals
Activated the crystals using an alternating current electric field
Measured the strain response under applied electric fields
Achieved remarkable electric-field-induced strain close to 1%
Identified the mechanism involving defect dipoles associated with the doping
Abstract
Aged 1 mol% Fe-doped BaTiO3 (Fe-BTO) single crystals are activated by an alternating current (AC) electric field, leading to a remarkable electric-field-induced strain close to 1%. The mechanism of this...
