Magnetoelectric coupling effect of Ni1-xZnxFe2O4/PZT (NZFO/PZT) thin film heterostructures is investigated by tuning the Zn content in NZFO film. The highest magnetoelectric coefficient NZFO/PZT achieved at x=0.15 with value 328 mV/cm Oe. This various different induced distinct magnetostriction film, which related to piezomagnetic q and initial permeability μi layer, as well exchange interactio...

Abstract The use of an identical electrolyte in electrochemical metallization (ECM)-based neuron and synaptic devices has not yet been achieved due to their different resistive-switching characteristics. Herein, we describe ECM comprising the same ferroelectric PbZr 0.52 Ti 0.48 O 3 (PZT) electrolyte, which can sustain both behavior depending on identity active electrode. Ag/PZT/La 0.8 Sr 0.2 M...

An approach of Green’s function is adopted to solve the inhomogeneous linear differential equations representing wave equations in piezo-composite materials. In particular, transference of horizontally polarised shear (SH) waves is considered in bedded structure comprising of porous-piezo electric layer lying over a heterogeneous half-space. Propagation of SH-waves is considered to be influence...

Lead zirconate titanate (PZT) nanopowders with spherical-shaped morphology, perovskite structure and an average size of 20 nm were successfully synthesized. The prepared PZT nanopowders were characterized by differential thermal analysis (DTA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Energy dispersive X-ray (EDS) and Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) technique. Single-...

Magnetoelectric material-based cantilever resonators have been considered as a promising solution for magnetic sensing applications. However, most applications focus on bulk piezoelectric (e.g., PZT) laminated composites, which put critical limit miniaturizing into micrometer-sized devices. This work aims at demonstrating the potential of micro-resonator approach with lower power consumption an...

The in-plane dielectric and ferroelectric properties of preferentially oriented lead zirconate titanate (PZT) thin films are characterized using interdigitated transducers (IDTs). By combining finite element method simulations capacitance measurements, values the constant with thicknesses between 150 nm 800 obtained. A modified Sawyer–Tower circuit is used to investigate polarization loops meas...

Piezoelectric transducer (PZT) patches can be attached to structures in order to reduce vibration. The PZT patches essentially convert vibrational mechanical energy to electrical energy. The electrical energy can be dissipated via an electrical impedance. This paper introduces a method of implementing an arbitrary impedance using a current source and digital signal processor (DSP). The \synthet...
