报告内容:Domain engineering is an effective method in fabricating multidomain ferroelectric materials that possess ultrahigh piezoelectric properties, such as [001]c polarized Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-PbTiO3 (PMN-PT) and Pb(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O3-PbTiO3 (PZN-PT) single crystals. Recent experimental results demonstrated that the piezoelectric property enhancement in multidomain ferroelectric crystals depends strongly on the size of domains, or the density of domain walls. This means that domain walls do contribute to the effective macroscopic piezoelectric responses, although it might not be in terms of domain wall motions as in conventional PZT ceramics. In a simplified model, one may treat the domain wall as a separated thin layer material sandwiched in between two domains that have different material properties. Traditionally, domain wall region had been considered to have much higher electrical conductivity, but using conductive domain walls leads to contradictions with experimental results. We have explored a new theoretical treatment by assuming domain wall region as a thin layer insulating piezoelectric material. Through fitting the experimental results of BaTiO3 and PZN-6%PT multidomain single crystals, we were able to extract the corresponding set of effective material properties for domain walls. This simple piezoelectric domain wall model can provide satisfactory explanations to the domain size dependence of piezoelectric property enhancement in domain engineered ferroelectric crystals.
