Abstract BiScO 3-PbTiO 3 (BS-PT) system has been extensively investigated over two
decades since the discovery in 2001 for its high piezoelectric coefficient and high Curie …

This review provides a detailed overview of the energy harvesting technologies associated
with piezoelectric materials along with the closely related sub-classes of pyroelectrics and …

Two different heat-transport mechanisms are discussed in solids. In crystals, heat carriers
propagate and scatter particlelike as described by Peierls's formulation of the Boltzmann …

Piezoelectric materials that can function at high temperatures without failure are desired for
structural health monitoring and/or nondestructive evaluation of the next generation turbines …

Piezoelectric sensing is of increasing interest for high-temperature applications in
aerospace, automotive, power plants and material processing due to its low cost, compact …

As opposed to open surgery procedures, minimally invasive surgery (MIS) utilizes small skin
incisions to insert a camera and surgical instruments. MIS has numerous advantages such …

Lead oxide based ferroelectrics, represented by lead zirconate titanate (Pb (Zr, Ti) O 3) or
PZT) are the most widely used materials for piezoelectric actuators, sensors and transducers …

Piezoceramics have long faced the challenge of achieving both a high Curie temperature
(TC) and outstanding electrical properties due to thermal depolarization. To address this, we …

Extreme environments are often faced in energy, transportation, aerospace, and defense
applications and pose a technical challenge in sensing. Piezoelectric sensor based on …
