dc.description.abstractThis work is to study electric (E)-field-induced and temperature-induced phase transitions in (001)-cut Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)0.67Ti0.33O3 (PMNT33%) single crystal, which are critical concerns for piezoelectric applications. Dielectric properties and domain structures (by polarizing microscope) are measured as functions of temperature and E field. The hysteresis loop of the polarization versus E field at room temperature is also measured. Without any E-field application, upon heating a first-order-type phase transition sequence rhombohedral (R) → rhombohedral/monoclinic/[001]tetragonal (R/M/T001) → cubic (C) takes place near 350 and 430 K, respectively. Under a dc E-field application along [001] at room temperature, [001] tetragonal (T001) phase domains are induced by various phase transition sequences, i.e. R → T001,R → M → T001, R → T → T001,andR→ M → T → T001,asthe E-field strength increases. In addition, E-field-induced microcracking is observed in this work.en_US
