Giant self-biased magnetoelectric coupling in co-fired textured layered composites
(AIP Publishing, 2013-02-01)
Co-fired magnetostrictive/piezoelectric/magnetostrictive laminate structure with silver inner electrode was synthesized and characterized. We demonstrate integration of textured piezoelectric microstructure with the ...
High efficiency planar-type perovskite solar cells with negligible hysteresis using EDTA-complexed SnO2
(Springer Nature, 2018-08-13)
Even though the mesoporous-type perovskite solar cell (PSC) is known for high efficiency, its planar-type counterpart exhibits lower efficiency and hysteretic response. Herein, we report success in suppressing hysteresis ...
Compositionally Graded Multilayer Ceramic Capacitors
(Springer Nature, 2017-09-27)
Multilayer ceramic capacitors (MLCC) are widely used in consumer electronics. Here, we provide a transformative method for achieving high dielectric response and tunability over a wide temperature range through design of ...
Flexible Margin Kinematics and Vortex Formation of Aurelia aurita and Robojelly
(PLOS, 2014-06-06)
The development of a rowing jellyfish biomimetic robot termed as “Robojelly”, has led to the discovery of a passive flexible flap located between the flexion point and bell margin on the Aurelia aurita. A comparative ...
A new method for achieving enhanced dielectric response over a wide temperature range
(Springer Nature, 2015-10-19)
We report a novel approach for achieving high dielectric response over a wide temperature range. In this approach, multilayer ceramic heterostructures with constituent compositions having strategically tuned Curie points ...
High thermal stability of piezoelectric properties in (Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3)(x)-(BaTiO3)(y)-(Na0.5K0.5NbO3)(1-x-y) ceramics
(AIP Publishing, 2013-01-01)
We report the piezoelectric and ferroelectric properties of (Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3)(x)-(BaTiO3)(y)-(Na0.5K0.5NbO3)(1-x-y) ceramics for Na0.5K0.5NbO3 rich end of composition (x, y <= 0.04 mol. %). These compositions were found to ...
Near-flat self-biased magnetoelectric response in geometry gradient composite
(American Institute of Physics, 2014-03-14)
We demonstrate a near-flat self-biased magnetoelectric (ME) effect in geometry gradient magnetostrictive-piezoelectric laminates. The near-flat behavior was characterized by a stable ME response over a wide range of magnetic ...
Low-frequency nanotesla sensitivity in Metglas/piezoelectric/carbon fiber/piezoelectric composites with active tip mass
(AIP Publishing, 2011-02-01)
We report nanotesla sensitivity in Metglas/piezoelectric/carbon fiber/piezoelectric laminates with active tip mass operating in the vicinity of second bending mode. The peak magnetoelectric response for the laminate with ...
Thermal conductivity of self-assembled nano-structured ZnO bulk ceramics
(American Institute of Physics, 2012-08-01)
In this study, we describe the changes in thermal conductivity behavior of ZnO-Al micro- and nano-two-phase self-assembled composites with varying grain sizes. The reduction in thermal conductivity values of micro-composites ...
Tunable self-biased magnetoelectric response in homogenous laminates
(AIP Publishing, 2012-12-01)
In this study, we demonstrate self-biased magnetoelectric effect in homogenous two-phase magnetostrictive-piezoelectric laminates. Our results illustrate the method for tuning the magnitude of self-bias effect and provide ...
