“…Similar ones were observed in the polycrystalline BaTiO 3 ceramics. Its cause is not yet clear although redistributing the excess polarization charges at the grain boundary was proposed 18 . Increase of the content ratio Zr/(Zr+Ti) leads to the evolution of the domain structures.…”

“…As viewed from the [010] direction, the characteristic features of the 90° a – c domains therefore become: (a) the domain boundaries lying on the (011) plane exhibiting asymmetric δ‐fringes, and (b) spot splitting along the [001] direction 16 . To date, extensive transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies of ferroelectric domains have been mainly carried out in BaTiO 3 , 16–18 PbTiO 3 , 19,20 modified PZT ceramics, 21–23 and PMN‐based relaxors 24,25 . However, only a few papers deal with the structural aspects of ferroelectric domains in the PNN–PZ–PT system, 14,26–29 and the evolution of the ferroelectric domain structure in this piezoelectric ceramics, as a function of the relaxor PNN content and the Zr/(Ti+Ti) ratio, is not well understood.…”

Ferroelectric domain structures and their morphology evolution in the Bi-and Zn-modified (Pb 0.985 Bi 0.01 )(Ni 1/4 Zn 1/12 Nb 2/3 ) x (Zr r Ti 1Àr ) 1Àx O 3 piezoelectric ceramics (0.20rxr0.60 and 0.10rrr0.60) are investigated as a function of the relaxor Pb(Ni 1/3 Nb 2/3 )O 3 content and the Zr/(Zr1Ti) ratio (r) by transmission electron microscopy and selected area electron diffraction, and followed by a complete analysis of the nature of the domain walls based on the predicated twinning planes for the formation of domains in these piezoelectric ceramic systems. A systematic variation in the domain morphology was observed as the compositions move from the ferroelectric tetragonal (F T ) to pseudocubic (F pc ) phases, and then to the rhombohedral (F R ) phase. Wedged-shaped domains with misoriented {110} domain walls and mixed with herringbone-like configuration are the main features of the ferroelectric domains in the F T and F pc phases, whereas in the compositions near the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) between the F pc and F R phases, the characteristic feature of the ferroelectric domains is an intricate domain structure exhibiting a fluctuating mottled contrast. However, the domain boundaries in the F R phase exhibit a wavy character. The domain feature for the compositions at/ near the MPB between the F T and F R phases with high property coefficients is a 901 domain texture mixed with an intricate domain structure. The different domain configurations observed in the F T and F R phases are due to their different accommodations of local elastic strain fields. The piezoelectric soft behavior and a normal-relaxor ferroelectric behavior transition observed in this piezoelectric ceramic system are closely related to the above domain morphology evolution as increasing the PNN content or the Zr/(Zr1Ti) ratio.
