Photostrictive materials exhibit great potential in the light-driven microactuators/sensors,light-controlled microrobots,and other optomechanical applications.In this study,we present the photostrictive performance of Ni-modified Na_(0.5)Bi_(0.5)TiO_3-BaTiO_3 (NBT-BT) ceramics prepared by using spark plasma sintering.Under visible light illumination (405,520 and 655 nm,respectively),the Na_(0.5)Bi_(0.5)TiO_3-Ba(Ti_(0.5)Ni_(0.5))O_3 (NBT-BNT) ceramics exhibits large photostriction of the order of 10~(-3) and photostriction coefficient around 10~(-11) m~3/W.The XRD peaks of the sample under exte...
