Diffraction contrast analysis of 90° and 180° ferroelectric domain structures of PbTiO3 thin films

The ferroelectric domain structure of a PbTiO3 thin film on (100) SrTiO3 has been investigated by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Two types of a-domain were found: one extended through the film to the surface and another comprised small a-domains confined within the film. Dark-field TEM (DFT...
