Kurzbeschreibung (Abstract)

Precipitates have recently been found to significantly enhance the mechanical quality factor in piezoelectric ceramics. Such a piezoelectric hardening effect was attributed to strong interactions between ferroelectric domains and precipitates. In the present work, the response of domains to applied electric fields is observed in situ via transmission electron microscopy in aged (Ba, Ca)TiO3 ceramics with precipitates to reveal the underlying mechanism of this phenomenon. Ferroelectric domains in the Ba-rich matrix grain are observed to be more concen- trated near non-polar Ca-rich precipitates. With increasing applied voltage, domains separate from precipitates merge together first, while those near precipitates persist to higher voltages. During ramping down, domains nucleate from precipitates. These direct observations confirm the strong interactions between ferroelectric domains and precipitates in piezoelectric ceramics.
