Through dynamical diffraction simulations and quantitative comparison to experimental EBSD patterns, the absolute orientation of a non-centrosymmetric crystal can be determined. With this information, the polar domains of a material can be mapped. The technique is demonstrated by mapping the non-ferroelastic, or 180°, ferroelectric domains in periodically poled LiNbO3 single crystals. Further, the authors demonstrate the possibility of mapping polarity using this technique in other polar materials system.}, journal={Ultramicroscopy}, publisher={Elsevier BV}, author={Burch, Matthew J. and Fancher, Chris M. and Patala, Srikanth and De Graef, Marc and Dickey, Elizabeth C.}, year={2017}, month={Feb}, pages={47–51} }

Barium strontium titanate (BST) thin films and ceramics show a range of ferroelectric transition behavior, from normal, diffuse, and relaxor‐like ferroelectric responses, depending on the sample preparation route. Rayleigh analysis, the temperature‐dependent dielectric response, and the optical second harmonic generation were used to characterize the ferroelectric response of bulk and thin film BST. Ferroelectricity is observed to persist in BST for 30°C above the global phase transition temperature in ceramics and over 50°C in thin films. Piezoresponse force microscopy on BST ceramics with extensive residual ferroelectricity reveals the coexistence of nanoscale polar regions, typical of relaxor ferroelectrics, as well as micrometer scale domain structures. The nature of the phase transition was probed using electron energy loss spectroscopy and found to correlated with the nanoscale A‐site chemical inhomogeneity in the samples.}, number={5}, journal={Journal of the American Ceramic Society}, publisher={Wiley}, author={Garten, Lauren M. and Burch, Matthew and Gupta, Arnab Sen and Haislmaier, Ryan and Gopalan, Venkataraman and Dickey, Elizabeth C. and Trolier-McKinstry, Susan}, editor={Brennecka, G.

During postdeposition crystallization, the tendency for {111} twin nucleation, which drives subsequent abnormal grain growth, depends upon the specific sapphire facet. Specifically, tilting away from the close‐packed c‐plane modifies the orientation, morphology, and relative amount of an interfacial BaAl2O4 second phase. These factors control the density of twin formation, and thus overall grain size of the crystallized BaTiO3. As the substrate orientation transitions from c‐plane, to r‐plane, to a‐plane, the twin density is reduced, the average grain size decreases systematically from 270 to 130 nm, and the grain structure becomes overall more homogeneous. This twinning mechanism and abnormal grain growth occur by 900°C, several hundred degrees lower than reported previously.}, number={8}, journal={Journal of the American Ceramic Society}, publisher={Wiley}, author={Harris, David T. and Burch, Matthew J. and Li, Jing and Dickey, Elizabeth C. and Maria, Jon‐Paul}, editor={Viehland, D.Editor}, year={2015}, month={May}, pages={2381–2387} }

In this process, a small volume fraction of a low melting temperature glass is added during low-temperature sputter deposition. Subsequent annealing activates the liquid phase, which in turn provides the mass transport needed to approach full density, to increase grain size, and to improve crystallinity, and, in so doing, achieves a stronger non-linear dielectric response. Ba0.7Sr0.3TiO3 films with 0%, 1%, 4%, and 7% BaO-3B2O3 flux exhibited grain sizes of 25 nm, 28 nm, 48 nm, and 56 nm, and dielectric tunabilities of 25%, 33%, 64%, and 80% respectively. These values represent substantial improvements when compared to conventionally processed tunable dielectric films.}, number={7}, journal={Applied Physics Letters}, publisher={AIP Publishing}, author={Harris, D.
