Elastic response of (1−x)Ba(Ti0.8Zr0.2)O3 – x(Ba0.7Ca0.3)TiO3 (x=0.45–0.55) and the role of the intermediate orthorhombic phase in enhancing the piezoelectric coupling

Using the HFS600E-PB4 Linkam probe stage at tempertaures down to -70 °C (200K), this study looks at the temperature-dependent phase transitions affect the properties of piezoelectric materials, finding that ideal properties peaked around the low-temperature phase transitions.
