Ferroelectric ceramics (Ba0.85Ca0.15)(Ti0.9Zr0.1-xSnx)O3 (x=0.00, 0.02, 0.04, 0.06) were prepared by a sol-gel method. Structural investigation revealed the co-existence of tetragonal (P4mm) and orthorhombic (Pmm2) symmetries at room…
Controlling the alignment of two dimensional (2D) materials is crucial for optimizing their electronic and mechanical properties in next generation devices. This study explores how electric fields can manipulate the orientation of 2D…
Natural sedimentation processes give rise to fine layers in shales. If these layers alternate between organic-rich and organic-poor sediments, then the contrast in dielectric properties gives rise to an effective birefringence as the…
The fabrication of terahertz (THz) optics with arbitrary shapes via poly-methacrylate-based stereolithography is very attractive as it may offer a rapid, low-cost avenue towards optimized THz imaging applications. In order to design such…
We report on the structure and dielectric properties of ternary A6B2O17 (A = Zr; B = Nb, Ta) thin films and ceramics. Thin films are produced via sputter deposition from dense, phase-homogenous bulk ceramic targets, which are synthesized…
The maser, older sibling of the laser, has been confined to relative obscurity due to its reliance on cryogenic refrigeration and high-vacuum systems. Despite this it has found application in deep-space communications and radio astronomy…
Complex electrical permittivity measurements in (1-x)[Pb(Mg1/3 Nb2/3)O3]-xPbTiO3 ceramics for 0.10 x 0.40 were performed in the frequency and temperature range from 1 kHz to 100 kHz and from 15 to 600 K, respectively. Unexpected dielectric…
Diamond 1 - 10 micrometers thick membranes are platform for photonic, quantum and opto-mechanic devices with applications across UV-IR spectral ranges. IR characterization of diamond gratings in reflection and transmission showed a change…
