Cold sintering of lead-free ferroelectric perovskites

Author(s): Samir Salmanov (Author), Mojca Otoničar (Supervisor), Danjela Kuščer Hrovatin (Co-Supervisor)

Year: 2025

Type: Doctoral dissertation

Fabrication of electroceramics usually requires high sintering temperatures of 800 to 1400 °C, which can unintentionally lead to problems such as volatilization of species, formation of secondary phases and excessive grain growth. These problems can cause inhomogeneous microstructures, non-stoichiometric chemical compositions and limited material functionality. Therefore, there is a need …

Defect chemistry and hardening of ferroelectric cobalt-doped bismuth ferrite ceramics: doctoral thesis

Author(s): Maja Makarovič (Author), Tadej Rojac (Supervisor), Sverre Magnus Selbach (Co-Supervisor)

Year: 2020

Type: Doctoral dissertation

Bismuth ferrite, BiFeO3 (BFO), has been recognized as a promising lead-free material for high-temperature piezoelectric applications due to its high Curie temperature of 825 °C. However, the practical use of BFO has been limited in particular by its elevated electrical conductivity. In addition, BFO shows the characteristics of ferroelectric hardening, …

A Modular Ontology of Data Mining

Author(s): Panče Panov (Author), Sašo Džeroski (Supervisor)

Year: 2012

Type: Doctoral dissertation

The domain of data mining (DM) deals with analyzing different types of data. The data typically used in data mining is in the format of a single table, with primitive datatypes as attributes. However, structured (complex) data, such as graphs, sequences, networks, text, image, multimedia and relational data, are receiving …
