Domain structure sequence in ferroelectric Pb ( Zr 0.2 Ti 0.8 ) O 3 thin film on MgO
The structural evolution of a polydomain ferroelectric Pb ( Zr 0.2 Ti 0.8 ) O 3 film was studied by temperature-dependent x-ray diffraction. Two critical temperatures were evidenced: T * = 740 K , corresponding to a change in the domain structure ( a ∕ c ∕ a ∕ c to a 1 ∕ a 2 ∕ a 1 ∕ a 2 ), and T C f...

The evolutions of the domain structure and lattice parameters were found to be in very good agreement with the calculated domain stability map and theoretical temperature-misfit strain phase diagram, respectively. |
