摘要
The polarization switching process was investigated in ferroelastic-ferroelectric ceramics through hysteresis loops and the electric field induced-strain measurements. PMN-PT ceramics with rhombohedral and tetragonal symmetries as well as soft and hard PZT ceramics were investigated. The ferroelectric polarization switching in ceramics was emphasized as an elastic problem related to ferroelastic non-180 degrees domains. The domain reorientation was showed as occurring in a viscous medium, where the "active" domains lie in a conical distribution and the restoring forces tire resulting from electrical and mechanical contributions. The coercive field was interpreted as the effective field necessary to overcome these resistance forces during the reorientation process.
