Notes:
The domain structure of ferroelectrics changes during poling has a direct influence on the macroscopic properties of the materials. The intensity variation of the different X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern profiles was used to identify the percentage of 90° domain reorientation in the tetragonal phase of Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3–PbTiO3 (PMN–PT) ceramics after poling. The results are consistent with the change of piezoelectric properties. In addition, by using XRD patterns, a spatial distribution of polarization in a well-poled 0.62PMN–0.38PT ceramics has been determined and was found to be best described by the Cauchy function W00l (ϕ)=1/(1+0.023ϕ2).
