Local mechanical properties of perovskite oxide ferroelectric materials

Author(s): Katarina Žiberna (Author), Andreja Benčan Golob (Supervisor), Hana Uršič Nemevšek (Co-Supervisor)

Year: 2025

Type: Doctoral dissertation

Ferroelectric materials have the ability to convert electrical energy into mechanical energy and vice versa, which makes them widely used as sensors, actuators, and ultrasonic transducers. While their electrical and electromechanical properties are well studied, mechanical properties like Young’s modulus (E) and hardness (H) remain known to a lesser extent. …

Study of polar ordering in ordered and partial disordered ferroelectric systems

Author(s): Nikola Novak (Author), Zdravko Kutnjak (Supervisor)

Year: 2013

Type: Doctoral dissertation

This work presents experimental studies of ordering phenomena, electromechanical and electrocaloric properties in single crystal, ceramic and solid solution relaxor ferroelectrics and single crystal ferroelectric materials. The main aim of investigations is to prove the existence of a liquid-vapor critical point in these systems and to verify its impact on …
