It is found that PSZT is easily reduced and the optimal conditions for producing RAINBOW samples are determined to be 870 ℃ for 2-3 h. The antiferroelectrics-ferroelectrics phase transitions occur at lower field strength in RAINBOW actuators compared with normal PSZT actuators. Large axial displacements are also obtained from the RAINBOW actuator by application of electric fields exceeding the phase switching level. However, the field-induced displacement of the RAINBOW actuator is dependent on the manner of applying load on the samples.展开更多

It is found that PSZT was easily reduced and the optimal conditions for producing RAINBOW samples were determined to be 870℃ for 2~3 h. The AFE\|FE phase transitions occur at lower field strength in RAINBOWs compared with normal PSZT. Larger axial displacement (about 190μm) was obtained from the RAINBOWs by application of electric ...展开更多
