| Abstract: |
Polarization reversal ferroelectric characteristics (charge-, current- capacitance- and pyroresponse- voltage loops) were investigated for vapor transport equilibrated near-stoichiometric LiTaO3. The transition from the unipolar state to asymmetric and symmetric inversely polarized structures (IPS) was realized by applying external voltage. By photopyroelectric subsurface thermal-wave probing of IPS the position of charged domain boundary and its thickness were estimated. Low (60 V/mm) coercive field process was considered as connected with low (4 μC/cm2) polarization reversal in gradient regions of domain boundaries. Application of monolithitic IPS for various types of differential pyroelectric detectors is proposed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
