Summary:BST capacitors possess excellent dielectric and electromechanical
properties near FE-PE phase transition under dc bias field. In this work
we will present the field and temperature dependencies of the
electromechanical properties of (Ba,Sr)TiO3. Experimental
observations will be compared to predictions from the phenomenological
theory of ferroelectric phase transitions. Previously developed densely
populated two-dimensional BST arrays will be described for potential
applications in real time hand-held acoustic camera for underwater
divers, medical imaging, and acoustic microscopy
