Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 2Electrocaloric Behaviour of Tape Cast and Grain Oriented Nbt-Kbt Ceramics(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2024) Unal, Muhammet Ali; Karakaya, Merve; Irmak, Tugce; Yildirim-Ozarslan, Gokce; Avci, A. Murat; Fulanovic, Lovro; Adem, UmutWe have investigated the effects of grain orientation and tape casting process on the electrocaloric properties of 0.82Na(0.5)Bi(0.5)TiO(3)-0.18 K0.5Bi0.5TiO3 (0.82NBT-0.18KBT) ceramics at the Morphotropic Phase Boundary (MPB), using direct and indirect measurements. We observe a larger electrocaloric response for the template-free ceramics compared to 7 and 10 wt% template containing ones, suggesting that grain orientation along rhombohedral < 100 > does not improve the electrocaloric response. Indirect measurements yielded a large adiabatic temperature change of around 3 K under an electric field of 50 kV/cm, which is significantly higher than 0.9 K reached at a lower electric field of 40 kV/cm using the direct measurement.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 2Electrocaloric Behaviour of Tape Cast and Grain Oriented Nbt-Kbt Ceramics(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2024) Unal, Muhammet Ali; Karakaya, Merve; Irmak, Tugce; Yildirim-Ozarslan, Gokce; Avci, A.

Both Mn precursors were substituted to the Ti-site as 1 mol% and two different sintering temperatures of 1325 and 1400 degrees C were used to study the effect of grain size. We deduced that slightly higher amounts of Mn2+ can be incorporated into the perovskite structure when MnO2 is used as the precursor, by using X-ray diffraction and electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. Mn-doped samples sintered at 1325 degrees C age faster than those sintered at 1400 degrees C. Aging caused a decrease in the electrocaloric effect whereas Mn-doping increased it. This study shows that Mn precursor used for the acceptor doping affects the amount of Mn incorporated into the structure and therefore electrical properties of the resulting ceramics.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 11Enhanced Electrocaloric Effect of P(vdf-Trfe) Nanocomposites With Ca and Sn Co-Doped Batio3 Particles(Elsevier, 2023) Tokkan, Melike; Demir, Mustafa M.; Adem, UmutWe report on the enhancemenent of electrocaloric effect in solution cast polymer nanocomposites based on Poly (vinylidene fluoride-co-trifluoroethylene) [P(VDF-TrFE) 55-45] with Ca and Sn co-substituted BaTiO3 ceramic fillers (Ba0.94Ca0.06Ti0.925Sn0.075O3, BCST). Saturated hysteresis loops and normal ferroelectric behaviour of the copolymer-based nanocomposites-as opposed to the relaxor ferroelectric nature of the terpolymer-based ones-allow the utilization of the indirect method to estimate the electrocaloric properties. Both the dielectric constant and electrocaloric temperature change (AT) increases as the particle content increases. Maximum adiabatic temperature change was obtained as 6.96 K under 900 kV/cm for the 10 vol % BCST containing polymer composite around the Curie temperature of the copolymer (70 degrees C). This relatively large electrocaloric strength is slightly lower than those obtained for terpolymer-based nanocomposites.Article Citation - WoS: 11Citation - Scopus: 11Enhanced Room Temperature Energy Storage Density of Bi(li1/3ti2 Substituted Bi0.5na0.5tio3-Batio3 Ceramics(IOP Publishing, 2021) Karakaya, Merve; Adem, UmutFor high power electronics applications, relaxor ferroelectrics are promising materials due to their superior energy storage properties. In this study, we investigate the energy storage properties of novel lead free relaxor ferroelectric ceramics (1-x)(0.92Bi(0.5)Na(0.5)TiO(3)-0.08BaTiO(3))-xBi(Li1/3Ti2/3)O-3 (abbreviated as BNT-8BT-xBLT). BNT-8BT composition which is close to morphotropic phase boundary was chosen as the base due to its large maximum polarization (P-m) and higher ratio of weakly polar tetragonal phase which is expected to facilitate ergodic relaxor behavior and improve energy storage density. The substitution of BLT to the BNT-8BT strongly disrupts the correlations between the polar nanoregions and the transition from nonergodic to ergodic relaxor state occurs already at x = 0.02 BLT at room temperature. Largest energy density (W-rec) at 61 kV cm(-1) was obtained for x = 0.02 sample (0.656 J cm(-3)), followed by x = 0.03 (W-rec = 0.614 J cm(-3)) and x = 0.05 (W-rec= 0.559 J cm(-3)). The x = 0.02 sample keeps its energy storage density at high temperatures (i.e. W-rec= 0.88 J cm(-3,) eta = 97%, E-m= 65 kV cm(-1) at 125 degrees C), while larger electric field (up to 89 kV cm(-1)) could be applied to the x = 0.05 sample with the smallest grain size and energy density of 1.03 J cm(-3) was reached at room temperature. Energy storage density values of BLT substituted materials normalized per unit applied electric field are promising among BNT-based materials.Article Citation - WoS: 12Citation - Scopus: 13Predicted Polymorph Manipulation in an Exotic Double Perovskite Oxide(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019) Su, He-Ping; Li, Shu-Fang; Han, Yifeng; Wu, Mei-Xia; Gui, Churen; Chang, Yanfen; Li, Man-Rong; Adem, UmutPredicted polymorph manipulation offers a cutting-edge route to design function-oriented materials in an exotic double perovskite-related oxide A(2)BB ' O-6 with small A-site cations. Herein, first-principles density functional theory calculations in light of the equation of state for solid, for the first time, was used to predict the Mg3TeO6 (R3)-to-perovskite (P2(1)/n) type phase transition in Mn3TeO6 at around 5 GPa, regardless of the deployment of magnetic interactions. The high-pressure synthesis and synchrotron diffraction crystal structure analysis corroborated experimentally the polymorph variation in Mn22+Mn2+Te6+O6, which was accompanied by a 13 K increase in the antiferromagnetic ordering temperature (37 K) in the high-pressure perovskite polymorph compared to that of the ambient-pressure R3 phase (24 K). The magnetodielectric coupling remains up to 50 K with the maximum being around the magnetic ordering temperature in the perovskite Mn3TeO6. Thus, the predicted polymorph manipulation here offers the possibility of discovering accelerated materials by inverse design in exotic perovskite oxides.
