Summary: By investigating the temperature dependences of internal friction and Young's modulus in ferroelectric ceramics, the effects of different external conditions on the material's performance were observed. The addition of 0.2 mass. % La led to an increase in internal friction and a decrease in the internal friction maximum near the phase transition temperature.

Summary: The barium aluminosilicate compound (BaAl2Si2O8 or BAS) was synthesized using powder reactive sintering in a Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) device. The reaction pathways between the precursors (alumina, silica, and barium carbonate powders) were investigated at different temperatures from 900 to 1550 degrees Celsius to obtain the desired hexacelcian crystallographic form of BAS without any unwanted compounds. A three-step thermal treatment was proposed to achieve a fully dense and nearly pure (98 wt%) BAS.

Summary: We investigated the effect of A-site disorder on the properties of lead-free Ba1-x-ySrxCayTiO3 perovskites and found that decreasing A-site disorder leads to reduced tetragonal distortion, ferroelectric transition temperature, and the temperature of the maximum electrocaloric effect. By optimizing the A-site disorder, the highest adiabatic temperature change can be achieved.

Summary: The newly designed ferroelectric oxide BST (85/15) nanoparticles were found to affect the health of carpet shell clam Ruditapes decussatus, with potential as antagonists of AChE inhibiting pollutants. Concentrations of BST (85/15) < 0.1 mg.L-1 showed promise as sustainable alternatives to lead-based ferroelectric oxides.

Summary: By adding LiNbO3 as a sintering aid, the sintering temperature can be reduced, grain growth can be improved, and high density ceramic bodies can be obtained. The addition of different amounts of LiNbO3 affects the phase transition temperature and microstructure. In contrast, using LiF as a sintering aid results in the formation of considerable amounts of secondary phases and lower relative density.

Summary: A phase field simulation was conducted to study the dielectric breakdown in polycrystalline ferroelectrics. The results showed that decreasing the dielectric constant improved the breakdown electric field. Furthermore, the relationship between the breakdown electric field and grain size as well as grain-boundary thickness followed a power function. These findings are important for engineering materials with high breakdown electric fields.

Summary: BaxSr(1-x)TiO3 (BST) thin films were in situ deposited on a Ti matrix through the micro-arc oxidation technique using a mixed aqueous solution. The influence of Ba2+/Sr2+ ratio on phase composition, microstructure, and properties of the films was investigated. It was found that the film with Ba2+ concentration of 0.06 M exhibited the best compactness, smoothness, highest capacitance, and lowest dielectric loss.
