Abstract
AbstractDue to the feature of domains, ferroelectric materials display hysteresis behavior with respect to the change of the applied electric field. Every ferroelectric material has its own unique hysteresis loop reflecting the information of domain reversal under an electric field. In this work, the scaling behaviors of dynamic hysteresis in relaxor (1‐x)Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3‐xPbTiO3 (PMN‐PT) ceramics with different compositions were studied systemically. Our results showed that the evolution of scaling behavior in PMN‐PT ceramics can be divided into three stages, which is independent of the phase structure of the ceramics and the testing electric field frequency. The relationship between hysteresis area <A> and field amplitude E0 obeys the power law <A>∝ in the low and high E0 regions, where the reorientations of 180° and non‐180° domain are dominant, respectively. However, the dynamic hysteresis area <A> does not follow the power law in the intermediate E0 regions, which is attributed to the interaction of different domain reversal mechanisms. Furthermore, the hysteresis area <A> decreases gradually with increasing frequency at a certain E0 and the time‐dependent domain reversal process was also discussed.
