摘要

Piezoelectric ceramics with large electrostrain (Sm) are crucial for actuators, however, the high driving electric field (Ed) required for giant Sm impedes application. Herein, a novel strategy of integrating asymmetric electrode design and pre-polarization is proposed to induce an enhanced built-in electric field (Eb), thereby mitigating the SmEd trade-off under low driving field. The synergistic effect of pre- polarization and asymmetric electrodes yields highly asymmetric strain, an ultrahigh d33* of ~ 1000 pm/V is realized in BiFeO3–BaTiO3(BF–BT) ceramics, which is more than 3 times higher than that of conventional BF–BT ceramicshad. Asymmetric strain primarily results from the interaction of the applied electric field with the pre-polarization induced Eb, and the difference in phase proportion between the two ends of the ceramic by the pre-polarization treatment and asymmetric electrodes. This study not only addresses the long-standing bottleneck of high Ed with low d33* in BF–BT ceramic, but also further enriches the design methodology for breaking the performance bottleneck of traditional piezoelectric ceramics in low-power application scenarios.
