Multilayer piezoelectric ceramic actuator (MLCA) has been widely employed in actuators due to the large cumulative displacement under low driving voltage. In this work, MLCA devices consisting of a lead-free MnCO3 and CuO doped 0.96(K0.48Na0.52)(Nb0.96Ta0.04)O3–0.04CaZrO3 (KNN) base Ni metal inner electrode were well c...

Currently, the need for high performance heaters industrial application is increasing, and repeated wear, rapid temperature change, uneven can cause deteriorating quality reduced productivity. The ceramic heater in this study consists of a substrate, an electrode layer, protective low-melting glass frit was used all layers to allow low-temperature processing. As substrate heater, Si3N4, which t...

A novel experimental technique, using specially designed electrodes (with machined annular and circular pits, and central cavities), was developed to simulate the effects of pitting morphology of the electrode tip face on weld nugget size and joint strength in resistance spot welding of aluminium alloys. Results of the experimental simulations indicate that the distribution of electrode contact...

All-solid-state Li-ion batteries based on ceramic solid electrolyte materials are a promising next-generation energy storage technology with high energy density and enhanced cycle life. The poor interfacial conductance is one of the key limitations in enabling all-solid-state Li-ion batteries. However, the origin of this poor conductance has not been understood, and there is limited knowledge a...

A facile process is demonstrated for the synthesis of layered SiCN-MoS2 structure via pyrolysis of polysilazane functionalized MoS2 flakes. The layered morphology and polymer to ceramic transformation on MoS2 surfaces was confirmed by use of electron microscopy and spectroscopic techniques. Tested as thick film electrode in a Li-ion battery half-cell, SiCN-MoS2 showed the classical three-stage ...
