Origin of the high piezoelectric response in PbZr1-xTixO3

TL;DR: High resolution x-ray powder diffraction measurements on poled PbZr1-xTixO3 (PZT) ceramic samples have shown that for both rhombohedral and tetragonal compositions the piezoelectric elongation of the unit cell does not occur along the polar directions but along those directions associated with the monoclinic distortion.
Journal ArticleDOI

A monoclinic ferroelectric phase in the pb(zr1-xtix)o3 solid solution

TL;DR: A previously unreported ferroelectric phase has been discovered in a highly homogeneous sample of PbZr0.52Ti0.48O3 by high-resolution synchrotron x-ray powder diffraction measurements as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phase diagram of the ferroelectric relaxor (1-x)PbMg1/3Nb2/3O3-xPbTiO3

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used synchrotron x-ray powder diffraction measurements to characterize the PMN-xPT phase diagram and to determine the stability region of the monoclinic phase, which extends from 31%$ to 37%$ at 20 K.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tetragonal-to-monoclinic phase transition in a ferroelectric perovskite : The structure of PbZr0.52Ti0.48O3

TL;DR: In this paper, a detailed analysis of the detailed structure of the tetragonal and monoclinic PZT phases on a sample with $x=0.45--0.48$ for which the lattice parameters are, respectively,
Journal ArticleDOI

Doping dependence of the spatially modulated dynamical spin correlations and the superconducting-transition temperature in La 2-x Sr x CuO 4

TL;DR: In this article, a low-energy spin-fluctuation peak position shifts from ($\frac{1}{2}$ to ($ \frac{ 1}{2$\ifmmode\pm\else\textpm\fi{ \ensuremath{\delta}=x$, and the peak momentum width of the spin fluctuations at low energies is small throughout the superconducting concentration region.
