Flexoelectric enhancement of strain gradient elasticity across a ferroelectric-to-paraelectric phase transition

We study the temperature dependent elastic properties of Ba0.8Sr0.2TiO3 freestanding membranes across the ferroelectric-to-paraelectric phase transition using an atomic force microscope. The bending rigidity of thin membranes can be stiffer compared to stretching due to strain gradient elasticity (S...
