In this work, the thickness dependence of intrinsic and extrinsic contributions to the dielectric properties was elucidated. A novel approach to quantitatively deconstruct the relative permittivity into three contributions (intrinsic, reversible extrinsic, and irreversible extrinsic) was developed using a combination of X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Rayleigh analysis. In situ synchrotron XRD was used to understand the influence of residual stress and substrate clamping on the domain state, ferroelastic domain reorientation, and electric field-induced strain. For tetragonal {001} textured Pb0.99(Zr0.3Ti0.7)0.98Nb0.02O3 thin films clamped to an Si substrate, a thickness-dependent in-plane tensile stress developed during processing, which dictates the domain distribution over a thickness range of 0.27– $1.11~\mu \text{m}$ . However, after the films were partially declamped from the substrate and annealed, the residual stress was alleviated. As a result, the thickness dependence of the volume fraction of ${c}$ -domains largely disappeared, and the out-of-plane lattice spacings ( ${d}$ ) for both ${a}$ - and ${c}$ -domains increased. The volume fraction of ${c}$ -domains was used to calculate the intrinsic relative permittivity. The reversible Rayleigh coefficient was then used to separate the intrinsic and reversible extrinsic contributions. The reversible extrinsic response accounted for ~50% of the overall relative permittivity (measured at 50 Hz and alternating current (ac) field of $0.5\cdot {E}_{c}$ ) and was thickness dependent even after poling and upon release.}, number={2}, journal={IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON ULTRASONICS FERROELECTRICS AND FREQUENCY CONTROL}, author={Denis-Rotella, Lyndsey M. and Esteves, Giovanni and Walker, Julian and Zhou, Hanhan and Jones, Jacob L. and Trolier-McKinstry, Susan}, year={2021}, month={Feb}, pages={259–272} } @article{jhuang_fuentes_jones_esteves_fancher_furman_reich_2019, title={Spatial Signal Detection Using Continuous Shrinkage Priors}, volume={61}, ISSN={["1537-2723"]}, DOI={10.1080/00401706.2018.1546622}, abstractNote={Abstract Motivated by the problem of detecting changes in two-dimensional X-ray diffraction data, we propose a Bayesian spatial model for sparse signal detection in image data. Our model places considerable mass near zero and has heavy tails to reflect the prior belief that the image signal is zero for most pixels and large for an important subset. We show that the spatial prior places mass on nearby locations simultaneously being zero, and also allows for nearby locations to simultaneously be large signals. The form of the prior also facilitates efficient computing for large images. We conduct a simulation study to evaluate the properties of the proposed prior and show that it outperforms other spatial models.

Rietveld refinement is carried out on measured diffraction patterns using a two-phase tetragonal (P4mm) and rhombohedral (R3m) model. Applying an electric field promotes the rhombohedral phase, while increasing compressive uniaxial pre-stress prior to electric field application favors the tetragonal phase. The competition between electrical and mechanical energy leads to a maximal difference between electric-field-induced phase fractions at 70 MPa pre-stress. Additionally, the available volume fraction of non-180° domain reorientation that can be accessed during electric field application increases with compressive pre-stress up to 70 MPa. The origin for enhanced strain and polarization with applied pre-stress is attributed to a combination of enhanced non-180° domain reorientation and electric-field-induced phase transitions. The suppression of both the electric-field-induced phase transitions and domain reorientation at high pre-stresses (>70 MPa) is attributed to a large mechanical energy barrier, and alludes to the competition of the electrical and mechanical energy within the MA during applied stimuli.}, journal={ACTA MATERIALIA}, author={Esteves, Giovanni and Fancher, Chris M. and Roehrig, Soeren and Maier, Guenther A. and Jones, Jacob L. and Deluca, Marco}, year={2017}, month={Jun}, pages={96–105} } @article{otonicar_park_logar_esteves_jones_jancar_2017, title={External-field-induced crystal structure and domain texture in (1-x) Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3-xK(0.5)Bi(0.5)TiO(3) piezoceramics}, volume={127}, ISSN={["1873-2453"]}, DOI={10.1016/j.actamat.2017.01.052}, abstractNote={Lead-free perovskites based on Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 (NBT) are being considered as viable alternatives to lead-containing piezoelectric materials.

Understanding the coupling between these mechanisms is of crucial importance for the development of new, environmentally friendly, piezoelectric materials.

Lattice strain from the peak shift in the 111 Bragg reflection and domain reorientation were quantified as a function of applied electric field amplitude. Domain reorientation was quantified through the intensity exchange between the 112 and 211 Bragg reflections. Results from three different film types are reported: dense films that are clamped to the substrate (as‐processed), dense films that are partially released from the substrate, and films with 3% volume porosity. The highest amount of domain reorientation is observed in grains that are misoriented with respect to the {111} preferred (domain engineered) orientation. Relative to the clamped films, films that were released from the substrate or had porosity exhibited neither significant enhancement in domain reorientation nor in 111 lattice strain. In contrast, similar experiments on {100}‐textured and randomly oriented films showed significant enhancement in domain reorientation in released and porous films.

Furthermore, the volume fraction of domain reorientation significantly exceeded that predicted by linear mixing rules. The high response of domain reorientation in porous films is discussed in the context of two mechanisms: local enhancement of the electric field near the pores and a reduction of substrate clamping resulting from the lowering of the film stiffness as a result of the porosity.
