Beyond MPB engineering: enhanced piezoelectricity and thermal stability assisted by high-entropy design
Ω·cm at 250 °C) arising from HE-driven grain refinement and suppressed charge transport. This work demonstrates that HE design serves as an effective strategy to mitigate the traditional trade-off between piezoelectric response and depolarization temperature in Pb-based relaxor ferroelectrics.
