Achieving large electric-field-induced strain in lead-free piezoelectrics

Lead-free piezoelectric single crystals of Fe-doped 0.95(Bi1/2Na1/2)TiO3-0.05BaTiO3 are shown to combine multiple mechanisms for high strain and an effective piezoelectric coefficient of up to 3260 pm/V. This is explained based on the analysis of superstructure reflections from diffuse synchrotron x...
