    Abstract: Piezoceramics are widely‐used in high‐power applications, whereby the material is driven in the vicinity of the resonance frequency with high electric fields. Evaluating material's performance at these conditions requires the consideration of inherent nonlinearity, anisotropy, and differences between individual vibration modes. In this work, the relation between electromechanical properties at large vibration velocity and the utilized vibration mode is investigated for a prototype hard piezoceramic. The nonlinear behavior is determined using a combined three‐stage pulse drive method, which enables the analysis of resonant and antiresonant conditions and the calculation of electromechanical parameters. The deviations of coupling coefficients, compliances, and piezoelectric coefficients at high‐power drive were found to be strongest for the transverse length vibration mode. Differences in the mechanical quality factors were observed only between the planar and transverse length modes, which were rationalized by the different strain distribution profiles and the contribution of different loss tensor components. In addition, the influence of the measurement configuration was investigated and a correction method is proposed. The differences between vibration modes are further confirmed by heat generation measurements under continuous drive, which revealed that the strongest heat generation appears in the radial mode, while transverse and longitudinal length modes show similar temperature increase.

    Abstract: Compositional engineering with a focus on structural phase transitions has been considered as the most important approach for enhancement of the functional properties of ferroelectric materials due to the critical fluctuation of physical properties. Of special interest are electric‐field‐induced phase transitions, which can terminate in a liquid–vapor‐type critical point with a strong enhancement of functional properties. Whereas the critical point in liquid–vapor space considers changes in temperature and pressure, the critical point in this study is placed in electric field–temperature diagrams. In single crystals, temperature and electric field of a critical point are sharply defined and therefore not appealing for practical applications. However, in ceramics, it is demonstrated that the orientational dependence of the critical point leads to a broadened temperature and electric field range. The presence of a diffuse critical point in ceramics provides a conceptually novel approach for the enhancement of functional properties, such as piezoelectric and electrocaloric (EC) responses, as validated here on the example of the 0.75Bi 1/2 Na 1/2 TiO 3 ‐0.25SrTiO 3 lead‐free relaxor ferroelectric ceramics. The realization of a broad criticality range will further facilitate the development of the piezoelectric and EC materials and provide an alternative concept to manipulate the functional properties by application of an electric field.

    Abstract: In this communication, we demonstrate a simple but powerful method to engineer dislocations into large plastic zones in various single‐crystal ceramic materials via room‐temperature scratching. By using a Brinell indenter with a diameter of 2.5 mm, we successfully produced plastic zones with a width and depth of ∼150 µm in a single scratch track, while the length of the scratch track can be arbitrarily long depending on the sample size. Increasing the number of repetitive scratching cycles increases the dislocation density up to ∼10 13  m −2 without visible crack formation. The outlined experimental procedure is showcased on single‐crystal SrTiO 3 , MgO, ZnS, and CaF 2 to demonstrate the general applicability of this technique. In light of the increasing research interest in dislocation‐tuned functional and mechanical properties in ceramics, our method will serve as a simple, fast, and robust technique to pave the road for scaling up the required large plastic zones for dislocation engineering in ceramics.

    Abstract: Quenching has been demonstrated to increase the thermal stability of the piezoelectric properties of relaxor (1−x)Na1/2Bi1/2TiO3-xBaTiO3 (NBTxBT) by 40 °C. This work establishes a correlation between the quenching temperature and salient electrical (conductivity, piezoelectric and dielectric) properties of two NBTxBT variants. The impact of quenching on the mechanical properties is quantified in terms of changes in Young's modulus. The perspective for application is interrogated using a variation in the sample thickness and separating the sample interior from the sample surface. An in situ measurement of surface temperature during the quenching treatment is applied to validate the simulation for thickness-dependent thermal transport in the material and ensuing transient thermal stresses. The calculated stress intensity factor is then compared with the fracture toughness of the material. This study asserts that air quenching can be conducted without mechanical degradation. Thus, it can be an important alternative to existing industrial strategies to enhance the thermal stability of the piezoelectric properties of relaxor NBTxBT.

    Abstract: Dislocations are usually expected to degrade electrical, thermal and optical functionality and to tune mechanical properties of materials. Here, we demonstrate a general framework for the control of dislocation–domain wall interactions in ferroics, employing an imprinted dislocation network. Anisotropic dielectric and electromechanical properties are engineered in barium titanate crystals via well-controlled line-plane relationships, culminating in extraordinary and stable large-signal dielectric permittivity (≈23100) and piezoelectric coefficient (≈2470 pm V –1 ). In contrast, a related increase in properties utilizing point-plane relation prompts a dramatic cyclic degradation. Observed dielectric and piezoelectric properties are rationalized using transmission electron microscopy and time- and cycle-dependent nuclear magnetic resonance paired with X-ray diffraction. Succinct mechanistic understanding is provided by phase-field simulations and driving force calculations of the described dislocation–domain wall interactions. Our 1D-2D defect approach offers a fertile ground for tailoring functionality in a wide range of functional material systems.

    Abstract: The assembly of integral membrane protein complexes is frequently supported by transmembrane domain (TMD) interactions. Here, we present the BLaTM assay that measures homotypic as well as heterotypic TMD-TMD interactions in a bacterial membrane. The system is based on complementation of β-lactamase fragments genetically fused to interacting TMDs, which confers ampicillin resistance to expressing cells. We validated BLaTM by showing that the assay faithfully reports known sequence-specific interactions of both types. In a practical application, we used BLaTM to screen a focussed combinatorial library for heterotypic interactions driven by electrostatic forces. The results reveal novel patterns of ionizable amino acids within the isolated TMD pairs. Those patterns indicate that formation of heterotypic TMD pairs is most efficiently supported by closely spaced ionizable residues of opposite charge. In addition, TMD heteromerization can apparently be driven by hydrogen bonding between basic or between acidic residues.

    Abstract: For millennia, ceramics have been densified via sintering in a furnace, a time-consuming and energy-intensive process. The need to minimize environmental impact calls for new physical concepts beyond large kilns relying on thermal radiation and insulation. Here, we realize ultrarapid heating with intense blue and UV-light. Thermal management is quantified in experiment and finite element modelling and features a balance between absorbed and radiated energy. With photon energy above the band gap to optimize absorption, bulk ceramics are sintered within seconds and with outstanding efficiency (≈2 kWh kg −1 ) independent of batch size. Sintering on-the-spot with blacklight as a versatile and widely applicable power source is demonstrated on ceramics needed for energy storage and conversion and in electronic and structural applications foreshadowing economic scalability.
