Domain pinning behavior of ferroelectric Pb1−xSrxTiO3 ceramics

Nanoscale observation of photo-induced domain pinning and investigation of imprint behavior in ferroelectric thin films

Continuum Thermodynamics of Ferroelectric Domain Evolution: Theory, Finite Element Implementation, and Application to Domain Wall Pinning

A continuum thermodynamics framework is devised to model the evolution of ferroelectric domain structures. The theory falls into the class of phase-field or diffuse-interface modeling approaches. Here a set of micro-forces and governing balance laws are postulated and applied within the second law of thermodynamics to identify the appropriate material constitutive relationships. The approach is...

Efficient Photoemission from Robust Ferroelectric Ceramics

Experimental results on photoemission by ferroelectric ceramic disks, with a possible interpretation, are presented. Two types of lead zirconate titanate lanthanum doped, PLZT, ceramics have been used for tests. 25 ps light pulses of 532 and 355 nm were used for excitation. The intensity ranged within the interval 0.1-3 GW/cm. The upper limit of the intensity was established by the damage thres...
