Abstract

The piezoelectric output voltage of a ferroelectric crystal in an ultrasonic field is determined by its state of polarization. By using this property, a technique has been developed for the measurement of polarization without disturbing the domain configuration. This ultrasonic method has several advantages over the Sawyer-Tower method and Chynoweth's pyroelectric method. Quasi-static hysteresis measurements of a barium titanate single crystal have been carried out to illustrate the method.
