The contribution of 180° domain wall motion to polarization and dielectric properties of
ferroelectric materials has yet to be determined experimentally. In this paper, an approach …

Full hysteresis loops for the relaxor ferroelectric 8/65/35 PLZT were measured as a function
of temperature. The strain–electric field hysteresis loops go from butterfly-shaped at 25° C to …

The majority of piezoelectric ceramics based on Pb (Zr, Ti) O 3 (PZT) exhibit hysteretic
behavior, which varies depending on various factors, including composition, microstructure …

The role of internal field and exhaustion during ferroelectric switching was investigated by
studying the dynamics of polarisation switching during the application of static electric fields …

Abstract Effects of electric field-frequency, electric field-amplitude, mechanical stress, and
temperature on the hysteresis area, especially the scaling form, were investigated in soft …

A stochastic model for the field-driven polarization reversal in rhombohedral ferroelectrics is
developed, providing a description of their temporal electromechanical response …
