Exciting news!

A new article

Optical and electrical performance of translucent BaTiO3-BaSnO3 ceramics

has been accepted by the editors of the prestigious journal Ceramics International (2022 - Q1 - 91.4 percentile).

Our joint team of scientists from CEITEC BUT and FunGlass Centre has successfully analysed and tested translucent lead-free piezoceramic material BT-11BS (0.89BaTiO3-0.11BaSnO3), obtained unique properties of this specific material and described its characteristics under different sintering temperatures.
