Abstract:Re-poling of unexpected partially depoled piezoelectric materials conventionally need to be first fully depoled through annealing above their Curie temperature (Tc) to revive piezoelectric performances. Here, we investigated de-poling and re-poling of Pb(In1/2Nb1/2)O3-Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-PbTiO3 (PIN-PMN-PT) single crystals under electric fields at room temperature. We found that alternating current (AC) electric fields with amplitudes near the coercive field (Ec) at low frequencies (< 10 Hz) can be employed to… Show more
