Current and Past Project
  • In the present research, we use transmission electron microscopy to understand the response of domain structure and atomic arrangement in ferroelectric material by applying external electric field.
  • Microstructure of various ceramic materials are analyzed.
  • In this research project, we use first-principles calculation to explore the future transparent electrodes.
    This project is carried out as a part of Global Science Campus project of Kyushu University.
  • Current-voltage characteristic and microstructure, in particular, grain-boundary structure, which is used for varistor, is investigated.

1. Yukio Sato, Ryuki Miyauchi, Mai Aoki, Syota Fujinaka, Ryo Teranishi, Kenji Kaneko, Large Electric-Field-Induced Strain Close to the Surface in Barium Titanate Studied by Atomic-Scale In Situ Electron Microscopy, PHYSICA STATUS SOLIDI-RAPID RESEARCH LETTERS, 10.1002/pssr.201900488, 14, 1, 2020.01, Measuring the lattice parameters of crystalline materials under an electric field at the nanoscale improves the understanding of how electronics operate. Herein, atomic-scale in situ electron microscopy is used to measure the lattice parameters near the surface of barium titanate under an electric field, which is varied to understand how it changes the lattice parameters. Applying an electric field along the a axis does not cause domain switching. Instead, as the electric field increases, so as well does the c-axis lattice parameter (c), whereas the a-axis lattice parameter (a) remains nearly constant. The c value increases as much as 4.5 - 7.0 pm at +/- 13.8 kV cm(-1), which is beyond the measurement precision. The increases are localized near the surface and the c value recovers slowly, which suggests that the observed phenomena are related to surface effects and slow processes. These results cannot be explained by electrostrain, even when considering additional effects such as mechanical constraint, inclination of electric field, and surface and size effects. Instead, the results are explained using a combination of Joule heating, vacancy introduction, and surface effects..
