This work investigates the relationship between the local structure and physical properties of a set of classical (MgTiO3, CaTiO3, SrTiO3, and BaTiO3) and complex ((1-x)Ba(Zr0.2Ti0.8)O3-x(Ba0.7Ca0.3)TiO3[BZT-BCT], Na0.5Bi0.5TiO3 [NBT]) perovskite electroceramics. The materials in this work were synthesized via standard solid state ceramic synthesis, the structure was investigated through a number of...
The COVID-19 pandemic in the United States resulted in fluctuating patterns in behavioral health service utilization and a rapid, unprecedented expansion of telehealth service delivery. The Medicaid population may have faced unique challenges in this environment, particularly with telehealth services, given the usability, technology, and reliable connectivity for such services...
At the intersection of basic science research and clinical relevance, cancer metastasis and cell invasion is a multifaceted problem that has been investigated for the past several decades. Importantly, cancer cell plasticity, the ability of a single cell to change its phenotype without genetic mutations in response to environmental cues,...
It has been well established that ferroelectric to relaxor crossover in piezoelectric ceramics exhibit promising electromechanical and dielectric properties over a wide temperature range, applying sensors and actuators transducers and such. A plethora of research has reported giant strain in various lead-free piezoelectric ceramics and attributed the reasoning to the...
