Abstract

Correlations between the strains induced by a unipolar-electric field and the strains induced by a bipolar-electric field were investigated for Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3 (PMN) and 0.9{Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3}-0.1PbTiO3 (0.9PMN- 0.1PT) relaxor ferroelectric ceramics in the temperature range of −50°C ∼ 150°C. The magnitudes of the unipolarly induced-strains are almost the same as the differences between the bipolarly induced-strains and the residual strains, which were attributed to the absence of change of spontaneous polarization direction when the unipolar-electric field is applied.
