To induce fine engineered domain configurations into potassium niobate (KNbO3) single crystals, two kinds of methods were performed, i.e., (1) high DC electric field exposure along the opposite direction of polarization of KNbO3 single-domain crystals at room temperature, and (2) introduction of randomly oriented fine domain configuration by heat treatment at 700 °C and then high DC electric field exposure along [001]c direction of KNbO3 multidomain crystals at room temperature. When the method (1) was performed, finally, the poled KNbO3 crystals became to single-domain state again through the formation of multidomain state. On the other hand, the KNbO3 multidomain crystals were obtained by using the method (2), and an enhancement of piezoelectric-related properties was observed.

Abstract The paper introduces a model of dielectric breakdown strength. The model integrated thermal breakdown and defect models, representing the relationship between the electric field of ferroelectric films and dimensional parameters and operating temperature. This model is verified with experimental results of the lead lanthanum zirconate titanate (PLZT) films of various film thickness (d = 0.8 – 3 mm), electrode area (A = 0.0020 – 25 mm2) tested under a range of operating temperature (T = 300 – 400 K) with satisfying fitting results. Also learned is a relationship that the recoverable electric energy density is directly proportional to the square of breakdown electric field. This relationship is found viable in predicting the electric energy density in terms of variables of d, A, and T for the PLZT films.

We successfully demonstrate that DC dielectrophoresis can be utilized to separate particles of three dissimilar sizes simultaneously in a microfluidic chip. This continuous-flow separation is attributed to the particle size dependent dielectrophoretic force that is generated by the non-uniform electric field around a single insulating hurdle on the channel sidewall.
