The thickness mode electromechanical coupling coefficient (kt) and the 31 mode electromechanical coupling coefficient (k31) reach 69.0% and 45.7%, respectively, which are superior to the PZT-5H lead-based ceramics of kt ~ 60% and k31~39%. In addition, the evolution of the crystal structure and domain morphology is revealed by Raman scattering spectra, a polarizing microscope and piezoelectric force microscopy characterization.

Urea (CO(NH2)2) is conventionally synthesized through two consecutive industrial processes, N2 + H2 → NH3 followed by NH3 + CO2 → urea. Both reactions operate under harsh conditions and consume more than 2% of the world’s energy. Urea synthesis consumes approximately 80% of the NH3 produced globally. Here we directly coupled N2 and CO2 in H2O to produce urea under ambient conditions. The process was carried out using an …
