Domain Orientation Imaging of PbTiO 3 Single Crystals by Vertical and Lateral Piezoresponse Force Microscopy

Four kinds of domain structures (180° c - c , 180° a - a , 90° a - a and 90° a - c domains) on grown surfaces of PbTiO 3 single crystals were imaged successfully using vertical and lateral piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM). Domain orientations (i.e., polarization vector distributions) at the surf...

Zusammenfassung:Four kinds of domain structures (180° c - c , 180° a - a , 90° a - a and 90° a - c domains) on grown surfaces of PbTiO 3 single crystals were imaged successfully using vertical and lateral piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM). Domain orientations (i.e., polarization vector distributions) at the surface of each domain structure are presented. These domain images are compared with simultaneously observed surface topographic images decorated by an acid etching treatment.
