Purpose of center: | The Electroceramics Research Group (ERG) at Rutgers University has been conducting research since 1986. The major focus of the research group in its first eight years of activities has mainly been on the development of composite piezoelectric sensors and actuators, piezoelectric thin films for electromechnical applications, multilayer capacitors, and size effects in nano-ferroelectric systems. During that period, the Office of Naval Research (ONR), pertinent NJ-based industry and the Center for Ceramic Research at Rutgers provided the financial support to the group. |
