A flexoelectric microelectromechanical system on silicon
Bhaskar, Umesh Kumar; Banerjee, Nirupam; Abdollahi Hosnijeh, Amir; Wang, Zhen; Scholm, Darrell G.; Rijnders, Guus; Catalan, Gustau (2016)
Article
Open AccessFlexoelectricity allows a dielectric material to polarize in response to a mechanical bending moment and, conversely, to bend in response to an electric field. Compared with piezoelectricity, flexoelectricity is a weak ... -
Flexoelectric MEMS: towards an electromechanical strain diode
Bhaskar, Umesh Kumar; Banerjee, Nirupam; Abdollahi Hosnijeh, Amir; Solanas, E.; Rijnders, Guus; Catalan, Gustau (2016)
Article
Open AccessPiezoelectricity and flexoelectricity are two independent but not incompatible forms of electromechanical response exhibited by nanoscale ferroelectrics. Here, we show that flexoelectricity can either enhance or suppress ...
