Tunable oxygen vacancy diffusion and electronic conduction through strain engineering in PZT films

Abstract This study elucidates the roles of strain gradients in enhancing both electronic and ionic conductivity of Nb doped lead zirconate titanate (PNZT) films. Increasing the applied strain in bent PNZT films from 0 to 0.5% reduced the energy barrier for vacancy diffusion from 0.75 ± 0.1 to 0.5 ±...
