Comments on Origins of Enhanced Piezoelectric Properties in Ferroelectrics
TL;DR: In this article, the role of polarization rotation and monoclinic phases in the evolution of piezoelectric properties in ferroelectric materials has been discussed, and it is suggested that the polarization rotation is an old concept that was proposed more than 30 years ago to explain enhanced properties of Pb(Zr,Ti) 0 3 in the morphotropic phase boundary region.

TL;DR: A lead-free piezoelectric ceramic with an electric-field-induced strain comparable to typical actuator-grade PZT is reported, achieved through the combination of the discovery of a morphotropic phase boundary in an alkaline niobate-based perovskite solid solution, and the development of a processing route leading to highly textured polycrystals.
