A novel colossal polarization architecture generated at the fast Li-ion conductor–dielectric interface is proposed. A fast Li-ion conductor, La0.57Li0.29TiO3 (LLT), is utilized as the conductive core material, while the ferroelectric barium titanate (BaTiO3; BT) was coated onto the LLT as the shell layer via a liquid phase reaction. After densification of the composites, the shell BT fully transforms into the interdiffusion layer, i.e. (Ba, Li, La)TiO3 (BLLT). The BLLT effectively hinders Li diffusion, leading to a colossal polarization at the core–shell interface. Consequently, the optimized BT–LLT achieves dielectric characteristics at 1 kHz with permittivity of 3.28 × 104.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
