Two-step doping approach releasing the piezoelectric response of BiFeO3 bulk ceramics co-doped with titanium and samarium

The conventional solid state processing of bulk Ti,Sm co-doped BiFeO3 ceramics typically produces a complex micro-nanostructure which exhibits an effective decrease of the leakage conductivity. This same nanostructured configuration however confines the mobility of the ferroelectric domains and in t...
