Based on the analysis of the photocurrent behavior of Pt sandwiched Pb(Zr0.2Ti0.8)O3 (PZT) films, the experimental evidence of top Pt/PZT interface layer thickness effect on the photocurrent is reported. It was well established before that the photocurrent of metal/ferroelectric film is attributed to the height of Sch…

We show a path for low-temperature crystallization of device-quality solution-processed lead zirconate titanate films. The essential aspect of the path is to circumvent pyrochlore formation at around 300 °C during temperature increase up to 400 °C. By maintaining enough carbon via pyrolysis at 210 °C, well below the t…

More Mn: New perovskite oxides (In1−yMny)MnO3 (1/9≤y≤1/3, see picture) were prepared by using a high-pressure technique. The A site is doped with Mn2+ ions, and (In1−yMny)MnO3 is similar to (Lu1−yCay)MnO3. The B-site-ordered structure is realized through the ordering of Mn3+ and Mn4+ ions. Materials with y≤0.25 demons…

In this study, thermal conductivity measurements of carbon nanotube (CNT) copper nanocomposite fabricated with a novel electrochemical co-deposition method were carried out. The measured thermal conductivity of a Cu-CNT nanocomposite is about 180% greater than that of pure copper. The resultant thermal conductivity of…
