In this research, the pyroelectric and piezoelectric properties of (1 - x)Na0.5K0.5NbO3-xBiScO3 ceramics were investigated and analyzed. (Na, K)NbO3 based (1 - x)Na0.5K0.5NbO3-xBiScO3 ceramics were prepared by a conventional mixed oxide method. As the substituent, BiScO3 material enhanced the sintering mechanism of NKN ceramic, which improved the density, pyroelectric and piezoelectric properties, without any structural distortion. In this study, the structural dependent improved piezoelectric properties of (1 - x)Na0.5K0.5NbO3-xBiScO3 ceramics were investigated with various sintering temperatures. Also, the pyroelectric properties of (1 - x)Na0.5K0.5NbO3-xBiScO3 ceramics were observed up to 200 °C for the devices applications. The crystalline structures of the (1-x)Na0.5K0.5NbO3-x BiScO3 ceramics were measured by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The microstructure was examined by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM). In addition, piezo-electric charge coefficient d33 and pyroelectric coefficient will be discussed.

Lightweight flexible piezoelectric devices have garnered significant interest over the past few decades due to their applications as energy harvesters and wearable sensors. Among different piezoelectrically active polymers, poly(vinylidene fluoride) and its copolymers have attracted considerable attention for energy conversion due to their high flexibility, thermal stability, and biocompatibility. However, the orientation of polymer chains for self-poling under mild conditions is still a challenging task.

ConspectusSymmetry is a pervasive phenomenon spanning diverse fields, from art and architecture to mathematics and science. In the scientific realms, symmetry reveals fundamental laws, while symmetry breaking─the collapse of certain symmetry─is the underlying cause of phenomena. Research on symmetry and symmetry breaking consistently provides valuable insights across disciplines, from parity violation in physics to the origin of homochirality in biology.

Piezoelectric catalysis possesses the potential to convert ocean wave energy into and holds broad prospects for extracting uranium from seawater. Herein, the Z-type ZnO@COF heterostructure composite with excellent piezoelectric properties was synthesized through in situ growth of covalent organic frameworks (COFs) on the surface of ZnO and used for efficient uranium extraction. The designed COFs shell enables ZnO with stability, abundant active sites and high-speed electron transport channels.

In hip arthroplasty, relative movements between the femoral stem and bone can lead to implant loosening, resulting in extensive bone loss. Acoustic emission (AE) analysis is a promising technique for a nondestructive and noninvasive detection of these relative movements. To develop such a detection method, in vitro investigations using piezoelectric AE sensors on implant stems in artificial or human femora are required to characterize the AE signals induced by loosening.
