Title: Pressure dependence of the monoclinic phase in (1–x)Pb(Mg_1/3Nb_2/3)O₃-xPbTiO₃ solid solutions

Abstract

We combine high-pressure x-ray diffraction, high-pressure Raman scattering, and optical microscopy to investigate a series of (1–x)Pb(Mg_1/3Nb_2/3)O₃-xPbTiO₃ (PMN-xPT) solid solutions (x=0.2, 0.3, 0.33, 0.35, 0.37, 0.4) in diamond anvil cells up to 20 GPa at 300 K. The Raman spectra show a peak centered at 380 cm⁻¹ starting above 6 GPa for all samples, in agreement with previous observations. X-ray diffraction measurements are consistent with this spectral change indicating a structural phase transition; we find that the triplet at the pseudocubic (220) Bragg peak merges into a doublet above 6 GPa. Our results indicate that the morphotropic phase boundary region (x=0.33–0.37) with the presence of monoclinic symmetry persists up to 7 GPa. The pressure dependence of ferroelectric domains in PMN-0.32PT single crystals was observed using a polarizing optical microscope. The domain wall density decreases with pressure and the domains disappear at a modest pressure of 3 GPa. We propose a pressure-composition phase diagram for PMN-xPT solid solutions.

Powder neutron diffraction study of phase transitions in and a phase diagram of (1-x)[Pb(Mg{sub 1/3}Nb{sub 2/3})O{sub 3}]-xPbTiO{sub 3}

Journal Article Singh, Akhilesh Kumar ; Pandey, Dhananjai ; Zaharko, Oksana ; ... - Physical Review. B, Condensed Matter and Materials Physics

Dielectric, piezoelectric resonance frequency, and powder neutron diffraction studies as a function of temperature have been performed on several compositions of (1-x)[Pb(Mg{sub 1/3}Nb{sub 2/3})O{sub 3}]-xPbTiO{sub 3} (PMN-xPT) ceramics in and outside the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) region to investigate the phase transitions and phase stabilities in this mixed system. Anomalies in the temperature dependence of piezoelectric resonance frequency and dielectric constant are correlated with structural changes using Rietveld analysis of powder neutron diffraction data. The frequency dependent dielectric studies reveal relaxor ferroelectric behavior for x<0.35 and a normal ferroelectric behavior for x{>=}0.35.

Symmetry of piezoelectric (1–x)Pb(Mg_1/3Nb_2/3)O₃-xPbTiO₃ (x=0.31) single crystal at different length scales in the morphotropic phase boundary region

Journal Article Kim, Kyou-Hyun ; Payne, David A. ; Zuo, Jian-Min - Physical Review. B, Condensed Matter and Materials Physics

We use probes of three different length scales to examine symmetry of (1–x)Pb(Mg_1/3Nb_2/3)O₃-xPbTiO₃ (PMN-xPT) single crystals in the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) region at composition x = 0.31 (PMN-31% PT). On the macroscopic scale, x-ray diffraction (XRD) shows a mixture of strong and weak diffraction peaks of different widths. The closest match to XRD peak data is made with monoclinic Pm (M_C) symmetry. On the local scale of a few nanometers, convergent beam electron diffraction (CBED) studies, with a 1.6-nm electron probe, reveal no obvious symmetry. These CBED experimental patterns can be approximately matched with simulations based on monoclinic symmetry,more »« less

Journal Article Matsuura, M ; Hirota, K ; Gehring, P M ; ... - Physical Review. B, Condensed Matter and Materials Physics

We have used neutron diffraction to characterize the diffuse scattering in five single crystals of the relaxor ferroelectric (1-x)Pb(Mg{sub 1/3}Nb{sub 2/3})O{sub 3}-xPbTiO{sub 3} (PMN-xPT) with x=0, 10, 20, 30, and 40%. The addition of ferroelectric PbTiO{sub 3} modifies the well-known 'butterfly' and 'ellipsoidal' diffuse scattering patterns observed in pure PMN (x=0), which are believed to be associated with the presence of randomly oriented polar nanoregions. In particular, the anisotropy of the diffuse scattering diminishes as the PT content increases. The spatial correlation length {xi} along the [110] direction derived from the width of the diffuse scattering at room temperature increasesmore »« less

Local polar structure and multiferroic properties of (1−x)Bi{sub 0.9}Dy{sub 0.1}FeO{sub 3}−xPbTiO{sub 3} solid solution

Journal Article Zhuang, Jian ; Department of Chemistry and 4D LABS, Simon Fraser University, Burnaby, British Columbia, V5A 1S6 ; Wu, Hua ; ... - Journal of Applied Physics

The multiferroic (1–x)[0.9BiFeO{sub 3}–0.1DyFeO{sub 3}]–xPbTiO{sub 3} (BDF–xPT) solid solution with compositions around the morphotropic phase boundary (x = 0.25, 0.28, 0.31, 0.34, and 0.37) has been synthesized in the form of ceramics. The phase symmetry, microstructure, ferroelectricity, piezoresponse, and ferromagnetic properties have been characterized by various techniques. It is found that, with increasing content of lead titanate from x = 0.25 to x = 0.37, the grain size increases and the ferroelectric property is improved. The ferroelectric performance is further enhanced by the introduction of an excess amount (2%) of TiO{sub 2} or by sintering in oxygen atmosphere, which reduces the leakage.

Domain wall and interphase boundary motion in (1–x)Bi(Mg_0.5Ti_0.5)O₃–xPbTiO₃near the morphotropic phase boundary

Journal Article Tutuncu, Goknur ; Chen, Jun ; Fan, Longlong ; ... - Journal of Applied Physics

In this work, electric field-induced changes in the domain wall motion of (1-x)Bi(Mg_0.5Ti_0.5)O₃–xPbTiO₃ (BMT-xPT) near the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB) where x = 0.37 (BMT-37PT) and x =0.38 (BMT-38PT), are studied by means of synchrotron x-ray diffraction. Through Rietveld analysis and profile fitting, a mixture of coexisting monoclinic (Cm) and tetragonal (P4mm) phases is identified at room temperature. Extrinsic contributions to the property coefficients are evident from electric-field-induced domain wall motion in both the tetragonal and monoclinic phases, as well as through the interphase boundary motion between the two phases. Domain wall motion in the tetragonal and monoclinic phases formore »« less
