Multi-step stochastic mechanism of polarization reversal in rhombohedral ferroelectrics
Yuri A. Genenko, Ruben Khachaturyan, Ivan S. Vorotiahin +4
A stochastic model for the field-driven polarization reversal in rhombohedral ferroelectrics is developed, providing a description of their temporal electromechanical response. App…

Domain wall-grain boundary interactions in polycrystalline Pb(Zr0.7Ti0.3)O3 piezoceramics
J. Schultheiß, S. Checchia, H. Uršič +5
Interactions between grain boundaries and domain walls were extensively studied in ferroelectric films and bicrystals. This knowledge, however, has not been transferred to polycrys…
