However, in present study such behaviour is observed in calcium titanate prepared by sol-gel synthesis and densified by field assisted sintering. Presumably, the instability of regular TiO6 octahedra results in the off-centering of titanium positions in nanostructured bulk calcium titanate. As a consequence, piezoelectric behavior is observed in calcium titanate which is referred to ``pseudo-piezoelectricity''. This particular response is of great interest in biomedicine because it can improve osseointegration of implant materials.", school="Universit{\"a}t Rostock", note="vorgelegt von Abdullah Riaz", note="GutachterInnen: Eberhard Burkel (Institute of Physics, Physics of New Materials) ; Hermann Seitz (Fluid Technology and Microfluidics)", note="Dissertation Universit{\"a}t Rostock 2019", doi="10.18453/rosdok_id00002598", url="http://purl.uni-rostock.de/rosdok/id00002598", url="https://nbn-resolving.org/urn:nbn:de:gbv:28-rosdok_id00002598-5", url="https://d-nb.info/1293658669/34", url="https://doi.org/10.18453/rosdok_id00002598", language="English" }
