Abstract

Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-Pb(Fe1/2Nb1/2)O3-PbTiO3 (PMN-PFN-PT) single crystal was grown successfully by slow cooling method. Structure, domain configuration and frequency dependent dielectric properties of [001]-oriented as-grown single crystal had been analyzed. X-ray diffraction and polarized Raman spectra analyzed indicated a pure perovskite phase with tetragonal symmetry at room temperature. Domain configuration of the poled [001]-oriented PMN-PFN-PT was observed for the first time using a polarized light microscopy (PLM). Domain on (001) face exhibited a straight stripe-like morphology with domain size on the scale of 10um, and the extinction of 90o domains at P/A:0o revealed a tetragonal structure. Dielectric permittivity of [001]-oriented single crystal at room temperature exhibited a strong dependence with frequency and decreased sharply with increasing frequency.
