The growth and properties of electronic oxide thin films are reviewed. In particular, the
synthesis and properties of superconducting, insulating, conducting, magnetic, and …

Over the past four decades, energy microsources based on piezoelectric energy harvesting
have been intensively studied for applications in autonomous sensor systems. The research …

Lead‐free Na0. 5K0. 5NbO3 (NKN) piezoelectric ceramics were fairly well densified at a
relatively low temperature under atmospheric conditions. A relative density of 96%–99% can …

Abstract. In several oxide crystals the refractive index can be changed by inhomogeneous
illumination, and these photorefractive properties have allowed for a wide variety of …

Ambient oxygen pressure in a pulsed laser deposition process has been observed to have a
critical influence on the compositional, crystalline, and electrical properties of Na 0.5 K 0.5 …

Highly [100]-axis oriented single-phase Na 0.5 K 0.5 NbO 3 (NKN) thin films have been
grown on polycrystalline Pt 80 Ir 20 (Pt) and SiO 2 (native oxide)/Si (111) substrates using …

Recent progress in lead-free piezoelectric ceramics and thin films with special emphasis on
alkaline niobate-based and bismuth sodium titanate-based systems is reviewed concisely …

Na0. 5K0. 5NbO3 thin films have been grown on LaAlO3 (001) substrates using rf
magnetron sputtering from a Na and K enriched target. X-ray diffraction showed that the films …

Potassium niobate (KNbO3) thin films and potassium niobate/tantalate (KNbO3/KTaO3)
superlattices have been grown on KTaO3 (001) substrates by pulsed laser deposition. The …

Thin film capacitors of the lead-free (K 0.5 Na 0.5) NbO 3 (KNN) with (100) orientation were
grown on Pt/Ti/SiO 2/SOI (silicon-on-insulator) substrates by pulsed laser deposition. The …
