The relationship between domain switching and acoustic emission (AE) during poling was investigated using the tetragonal ferroelectric ceramics with composition of (Pb,La)TiO3+0.01MnO2 The amount of AE generation during poling increased with increasing dc electric field and raising temperature. It was confirmed that the change of the amount of AE generation with poling condition resulted from the difference of the amount of 90$^{\circ}$ domain switching and total amount of AE generation for 10 minutes was approximately proportional to the amount of 90$^{\circ}$domain switching. The A generations of two specimens which have different tetragonality rations(c/s rations) 15 at% and 24at% La-doped were also investigated. The sample with c/a ratio of 1.012 where 90$^{\circ}$ domains are dominate had larger amount of AE generation and 90$^{\circ}$ domain switching compared with the sample with c/a ratio of 1.004 where 180$^{\circ}$ domains are dominant.

Effect of transverse electric field on crack kinking in ferroelectric ceramics subjected to purely electric loading is investigated. It is shown that the shape and size of the domain switching zone depends strongly on the direction of the applied electric field as well as the ratio of the transverse electric field to the coercive electric field. Under small-scale conditions, mode I and II stress intensity factors induced by ferroelectric domain switching are numerically obtained. The crack kinking in ferroelectrics is also discussed.

The asymptotic problem of a semi-infinite conducting crack parallel to the poling direction in ferroelectric ceramics subjected to electric fields is analyzed. The main mechanism for the conducting crack growth behavior is thought to be ferroelectric domain switching leading to the development of a process zone around the crack. The shape and size of the switching zone is shown to depend strongly on the relative magnitude on the ratio of the coercive electric field to the yield electric field. It is shown that the crack growth can be either enhanced or retarded depending on the ratio of the coercive electric field to yield electric field.

The effect of Ta substitution on the crystal structure, ferroelectric, and piezoelectric properties of $Bi_{0.5}(Na_{0.82}K_{0.18})_{0.5}Ti_{1-x}Ta_xO_3$ ceramics has been investigated. The Ta doping resulted in a transition from coexistence of ferroelectric tetragonal and rhombohedral phases to an electrostrictive pseudocubic phase, leading to degradations of the remnant polarization, coercive field, and piezoelectric coefficient $d_{33}$. However, the electricfield-induced strain was significantly enhanced by the Ta substitution-induced phase transition and reached a highest value of $S_{max}/E_{max}$ = 566 pm/V under an applied electric field 6 kV/mm when 2% Ta was substituted on Ti sites. The abnormal enhancement in strain was attributed to the pseudocubic phase with high electrostrictive constants.

In this study, electrocaloric effects of Pb-free $(Ba_{0.85}Ca_{0.15})(Ti_{0.92}Zr_{0.08})O_3$ ferroelectric ceramics were investigated and discussed using the characteristics of P-E hysteresis loops at wide temperature range from room temperature to $140^{\circ}C$. The remnant polarization $P_r$ and coercive field $E_c$ were decreased with increasing temperature. The temperature change ${\Delta}T$ by the electrcaloric effect was calculated by Maxwell's relations, and reached the maximum of ~0.15 at $120^{\circ}C$ under applied electric field of 30 kV/cm.

In this paper, image storage and display of scattering mode using 7/65/35 PLZT ceramics was studied. Scattering in a ferroelectric poly-crystal depends on its grain size and domain orientations. 7/65/35 PLZT ceramics is ferroelectric and transparent. Image can be stored in the ceramic substrate by poling it selectively through a pair of electrodes with the pattern or a set of a photoconductivity film and two transparent electrodes.

PbNb$_{2}$O$_{6}$ piezoelectric ceramics have good properties, but the applications of them have been limited due to the problems of microstructures. In the present study, effects of additives on the phase stability, microstructure, and electrical proper-ties of ferroetectric phase were investigated. La$_{2}$O$_{3}$, Nd$_{2}$O$_{3}$ and Sm$_{2}$O$_{3}$ were added with the amounts of 1, 3, 5 mol% respectively. The results showed that single orthorhombic(ferroelectric phase) phase compared with the mixed phase of pure PbNb2O6 was obtained. In the case of 5 mol% Nd$_{2}$O$_{3}$ addition, relative density of >95% and dense microstructure with -2.mu.m grain size were obtained.d.

Pb($\textrm{Zr}_{0.5}\textrm{Ti}_{0.5}$)$\textrm{O}_3$ 강유전체의 상부 전극 크기를 변화시키며 펄스 전기장에 의한 전자 방출 특성 및 열화에 대하여 연구하였다. 상부 전극 크기 감소에 따라 상부 전극 모서리 부근에서 분극 반전에 기여하는 강유전체 분율이 증가되어 분극이 높아졌으며, ANSYS 5.3에 의한 전기장 시뮬레이션을 통하여 비대칭 전극 구조에서의 상부 전극 모서리 부근의 전기장이 증가한다는 것을 알 수 있었다. 분극 증가에 기여하는 상부 전극 모서리 주변의 강유전체의 부피 및 전극크기당 전자 방출량은 상부 전극 크기에 무관하였다. 전자 방출 횟수에 따라 상부 전극이 침식되어 분극 및 유전 상수는 감소하였으나 전극 복구에 의해 재생되었으며, 강유전체의 표면 손상에 의해 항전계 및 유전 손실은 증가되었다.

In this study, in order to develop the composition ceramics with the excellent electrocaloric properties, $(Pb_{0.88}La_{0.08})(Zr_{0.65}Ti_{0.35})O_3$ ceramics were fabricated by the conventional solid-state method. Electrocaloric effects of $(Pb_{0.88}La_{0.08})(Zr_{0.65}Ti_{0.35})O_3$ ferroelectric ceramics were investigated and discussed using the characteristics of P-E hysteresis loops at wide temperature range from room temperature to $220^{\circ}C$. The temperature change ${\Delta}T$ due to the electrocaloric effect was calculated by Maxwell's relations, and reached the maximum of ~0.19 at $190^{\circ}C$ under applied electric field of 30 kV/cm.

This study investigated the structural, dielectric, ferroelectric, and strain properties of (0.98-x)Bi1/2Na1/2TiO3-0.02BiFeO3-xSrTiO3 (BNT-BF-100xST, x＝0.20, 0.22, 0.24, 0.26, and 0.28). All samples were successfully synthesized using the conventional solid-state reaction method and sintered at 1,175℃ for 2 h. The average grain size of the BNT-BF-100x ceramics decreased with increasing ST content. Furthermore, we observed that the ferroelectric- relaxor transition temperature (TF-R) decreased with increasing ST content, which eventually vanished in the BNT-BF-24ST ceramics. The results indicated that a ferroelectric to relaxor phase transition could be induced by ST modification. Consequently, a large electromechanical strain of 633 pm/V at 4 kV/mm was observed for the BNT-BF-26ST ceramics. These results imply that our materials have the competitive advantage of larger strain under lower operating field conditions compared with other BNT-based lead-free piezoelectric ceramics. We expect that BNT-BF-ST lead-free piezoelectric ceramics are promising candidates as a novel ternary BNT-based system and can find potential applications in actuators.
