Abstract

The 90° domain switching in single crystalline BaTiO3 under an external static electric field has been investigated by in situ transmission electron microscopy using a special homemade transmission electron microscope stage. With the initial domains gradually disappearing, new domains that are 90° away from the initial ones are observed to occur with polarizations being switched to the direction of the external electric field, and domain boundaries being changed from ⟨101⟩ to ⟨1¯01⟩ in order to maintain a “head-to-tail” arrangement.
