Field-Induced Ferroelectric Phase Transition Dynamics in PMN-PT compositions near the Morphotropic Phase Boundary

Eduard Illin, Eugene V. Colla, Joseph Kerchenfaut, Shivjeet Chanan

Claims

C1strongest claim

PMN-PT compositions near the MPB exhibit phase-transition dynamics that differ markedly from those far below the MPB. Electric-field history significantly affects the field-induced transition temperature Tc, zero-field-cooling delay time tau_ZFC, and induced polarization Pc; under specific conditions the material retains a memory of its electric-field history and uses it to kinetically accelerate ferroelectric ordering.

C2weakest assumption

That the marked differences in dynamics and the memory effect are caused primarily by proximity to the MPB rather than by uncontrolled variations in sample quality, electrode interfaces, or the specific field protocols chosen.

C3one line summary

PMN-PT near the MPB shows field-history-dependent phase transition dynamics, including memory effects that accelerate ferroelectric ordering under specific conditions.
