The paper describes experiments revealing the anisotropy of the macroscopic dielectric response of poled lead zirconate titanate ceramics in the phonon frequency region. The results are discussed in terms of distinct polar phonon contributions and effective medium theory. The anisotropy probed in far-infrared experiments can be used to evaluate efficiency of the poling and/or depoling processes.
