Abstract
Ferroelectric phase transitions and electromechanical properties of BaTiO3 (BT) and PbTiO3 (PT) crystals under one-dimensional shock wave compression were investigated using Landau-Ginzburg-Devonshire phenomenological approach. The results showed that the Curie temperature of both BT and PT increased with increasing pressure. Under highest shock wave compression, the orthorhombic phase was the stable state for BT, while no ferroelectric-ferroelectric phase transition was induced for PT. At room temperature, the electromechanical parameters for PT and BT were found to decrease with increasing one-dimensional compression, except for the dielectric susceptibility ε22 and piezoelectric coefficient e24 of tetragonal BT. The variations of dielectric and piezoelectric parameters were analyzed according to the elastic Gibbs free-energy.
