By using the semi-wet synthesis method, lead-free ferroelectric materials Ba0.9Sr0.1Ti1-xSnxO3 with x = 0, 0.02, 0.05, and 0.10 (abbreviated as BSTS) were prepared and their structural, electric and electrocaloric properties were…
A capacitive displacement system was constructed to measure the electric-field-induced piezoelectric strain in the simple form of either a bulk or thin film. The system can determine an AC displacement of 2 pm precisely by using a lock-in…
In this paper, we investigate the feasibility, robustness and optimization of introducing personal comfort systems (PCS), apparatuses that promises in energy saving and comfort improvement, into a broader range of environments. We report a…
Among all the properties required for the design of the next generation of PCM (density, heat capacity, thermal expansion, latent energy, volume change upon melting, corrosion rate, etc.) the thermal transport properties are by far the…
The Weyl semimetal trigonal PtBi$_2$ has recently been identified as a promising candidate material for intrinsic topological surface superconductivity emerging from the Fermi arc states of the material with a sizeable superconducting gap.…
The perovskite crystal BaTiO3 is modeled using a first-principles based effective Hamiltonian and molecular dynamics simulations are performed to estimate the pyroelectric response. The electrocaloric temperature change, \DeltaT, is…
High-dielectric-constant CaCu3Ti4O12 (CCTO) thin films were prepared on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si(100) substrates by pulsed-laser deposition. The 480 nm thick polycrystalline films have preferred orientation and show obvious crystallization on the…
Specific heat of polycrystalline BaTiO3 thin films on the fused quartz substrate was measured by ac-hot probe method. Phase transition temperature, excess entropy and spontaneous polarization were determined as a function of film thickness…
Accurately predicting the Curie temperature ($T_c$) of ferroelectrics from first principles remains a major challenge, as theoretical estimates often fall significantly below experimental values. In this work, we investigate the origin of…
Many of the electronic properties of high-temperature cuprate superconductors (HTSC) are strongly dependent on the number of charge carriers put into the CuO$_2$ planes (doping). Superconductivity appears over a dome-shaped region of the…
We investigate sputtering of a Ti3SiC2 compound target at temperatures ranging from RT (no applied external heating) to 970 oC as well as the influence of the sputtering power at 850 oC for the deposition of Ti3SiC2 films on Al2O3(0001)…
Ultra-high temperature ceramics, UHTCs, are a group of materials with high technological interest because their use in extreme environments. However, their characterization at high temperatures represents the main obstacle for their fast…
A new DC thermal model of Carbon Nanotube Field Effect Transistors (CNTFETs) is proposed. The model is based on a number of fitting parameters depending on bias conditions by third order polynomials. The model includes three thermal…
We cast the relation between the chemical composition of a solid-state material and its superconducting critical temperature (Tc) as a statistical learning problem with reduced complexity. Training of query-aware similarity-based ridge…
Multiphase Co-35Ni-20Mo-10Cr alloy MP35N is a high strength alloy with excellent corrosion resistance. Its applications span chemical, medical, and food processing industries. Thanks to its high modulus and high strength, it found…
Whether porosity can effectively improve thermoelectric performance is still an open question. Herein we report that thermoelectric performance can be significantly enhanced by creating porosity in n-type Mg3.225Mn0.025Sb1.5Bi0.49Te0.01,…
BiFeO3 has attracted much attention as a potential candidate for replacing conventional, lead based piezoelectric materials due to its remarkable spontaneous polarization and high Curie temperature. However, its inherent high leakage…
Cobalt carbide nanoparticles were processed using polyol reduction chemistry that offers high product yields in a cost effective single-step process. Particles are shown to be acicular in morphology and typically assembled as clusters with…
