Abstract

Antiferroelectric—ferroelectric (AFE—FE) phase transition in ceramic Pb0.97La0.02(Zr0.75Sn0.136Ti0.114)O3 (PLZST) was studied by dielectric spectroscopy as functions of frequency (102−105 Hz) and pressure (0–500 MPa) under a DC electric field. The hydrostatic pressure-dependent remnant polarization and dielectric constant were measured. The results show that remnant polarization of the metastable rhombohedral ferroelectric PLZST poled ceramic decreases sharply and depoles completely at phase transition under hydrostatic pressure. The dielectric constant undergoes an abrupt jump twice during a load and unload cycle under an electric field. The two abrupt jumps correspond to two phase transitions, FE—AFE and AFE—FE.
