New Perovskite Materials with Large Field-Induced Electromechanical Strains

Cann教授将于2011年4月1日至6月30日在谢菲尔德材料科学与工程系担任为期3个月的访问学者。在他的研究访问期间，他将与Reaney教授合作，在具有高机电应变的无PbO陶瓷领域进行研究。该研究的主要目的是将联合收割机在俄勒冈州的几个有前途的系统中进行的出色的合成加工研究与Reaney教授小组内提供的晶体化学、结构和微观结构的特殊知识相结合。此外，Cann教授将利用在谢菲尔德的时间，访问利兹、帝国、伯明翰、利物浦和曼彻斯特的其他感兴趣的研究团体，以促进英国社区之间的进一步联系。他将在合适的情况下举办研讨会，并在从事电子陶瓷工作的英国目标团体中讨论他出色的研究成果

Professor Cann will be a Visiting Scholar at the Department of Materials Science and Engineering, Sheffield for a period of 3 months from April 1st until June 30th 2011. During his study visit, he will undertake in collaboration with Professor Reaney's research in the field of PbO-free ceramics which exhibit high electromechanical strain. The main aim of the research is to combine the excellent compositional-processing-studies carried out in several promising systems at Oregon with the exceptional knowledge of crystal chemistry, structure and microstructure available within Prof. Reaney's group. In addition, Prof Cann will use his time at Sheffield to visit with other interested research groups at Leeds, Imperial, Birmingham, Liverpool and Manchester to foster further links within the UK community. He will, were appropriate, give seminars and discuss his excellent research findings at targeted UK groups who work in Electroceramics
