By thermal oxidation of initially birefringent porous silicon, highly optically transparent films of porous silicon oxide are produced. These films exhibit strong in-plane birefringence, which is twice as high as that of crystalline quartz. The experimentally measured refractive indices for ordinary and extraordinary…

Stress–strain curves of (1− x )BiFeO 3 – x PbTiO 3 compositions with x =0.2, 0.3, and 0.35 were determined under uniaxial loading to assess the material's potential for domain switching. The composition with x =0.35 provides the highest remanent strain, with more than 0.2% coupled with a strong tendency to relaxation.…
