Effect of Domain Wall Motion and Phase Transformations on Nonlinear Hysteretic Constitutive Behavior in Ferroelectric Materials

The primary focus of this research is to investigate the non-linear behavior of single crystal and polycrystalline relaxor ferroelectric PMN-xPT and PZN-xPT through experimentation and modeling. Characterization of single crystal and polycrystalline specimens with similar compositions was performed...
