Electrostriction is the basis of electromechanical coupling in all insulators. The quadratic
electrostrictive strain x ij associated with induced polarization components Pk and P l is …

The achievement of sufficient capacitance-voltage linearity in metal-insulator-metal (MIM)
capacitors with high permittivity (high-k⁠) dielectrics is still a challenge, as the origin of the …

The evaluation of electrostrictive properties of low permittivity dielectrics requires extremely
sensitive instrumentation. In the present work, a modified compressometer capable of …

A modified Michelson-Morley laser interferometer for measuring very small (10− 2 Å)
electrostrictive displacements in low-K dielectrics is described. Problems specific to the …

To measure the electrostrictive effects in low permittivity materials, extremely sensitive
instrumentation is required. A modified compressometer for resolving fractional changes in …

Methods for measuring electrostrictive coefficients are discussed and a set of converse
