Abstract 95/5 PZT ceramics with compositions of Pb(Zr1−x Ti x )3+1 wt% Nb2O5 (x=0.025 and 0.04) are studied with TEM. The coexistence of both ferroelectric (F) and antiferroelectric (AF) phases in one ceramic grain at room temperature is confirmed for these two compositions. The AF phase is mainly tetragonal, while a pseudo-cubic arrangement of AF polarization is also possibly present. When the Ti4+ concentration is increased, the F phase becomes predominant. Direct interfaces between F and AF domains can be observed, the former expands at the expense of the latter when bombarded by 200 keV electrons.
