Monday, June 28, 2021

Piezoelectric materials like bismuth ferrite thin films, when grown on a single lanthanum aluminate substrate give rise to highly strained epitaxial thin films that exhibit excellent electromechanical and ferroelectric properties.

Key Points: 
  • Piezoelectric materials like bismuth ferrite thin films, when grown on a single lanthanum aluminate substrate give rise to highly strained epitaxial thin films that exhibit excellent electromechanical and ferroelectric properties.
  • In bismuth ferritethin films "doped" or polluted with lanthanum (BLFOs), piezoelectricity is attributed to the presence of "mixed-phase structures" with stripe patterns.
  • The study also concluded that the high piezoelectric response seen in mixed-phase BLFO films is due to the presence of S /Stilt phases.
  • The findings from this study provide us a new perspective on the use of strain engineering to design ultra-high piezoelectric thin films.
