Ultra‐High Strain Ceramics with Multiple Field‐Induced Phase Transitions

Abstract
The induced polarization and longitudinal strain behavior of lanthanum‐ and titanium‐modified antiferroelectric lead zirconate ceramics were measured as functions of electric field as high as 30 kV/mrn (300 kV/cm). Two field‐induced phase transitions were observed, both in polarization and strain. Polarization and strain levels greater than 0.5 C/m2and 0.75%, respectively, were achieved in this materials family.
