Abstract

High energy synchrotron X-ray diffraction, in situ with electric field, was carried out on the morphotropic phase boundary composition of the piezoelectric alloy PbTiO3-BiScO3. We demonstrate a strong correlation between ferroelectric-ferroelastic domain reorientation, lattice strain and phase transformation. We also show the occurrence of the three phenomena and persistence of their correlation in the weak field regime. Published by AIP Publishing.
