“…Raman spectroscopy has been successfully used in electroceramics also for spatially resolved phase analyses, such as polytype detection in SiC 97,98 , solid solution studies in AlN-SiC composites 99 , and the determination of heterophase mixtures in the relaxor ferroelectric Pb(In 1/2 Nb 1/2 )O 3 -Pb(Mg 1/3 Nb 2/3 )O 3 -PbTiO 3 100 . Quantitative analyses of phase segregation, similar to the determination of monoclinic fraction in zirconia ceramics 101,102 , however, require the presence of suitable standards with a known phase fraction 103 .…”

Despite being applied with success in many fields of materials science, Raman spectroscopy is not yet determinant in the study of electroceramics. Recent experimental and theoretical developments, however, should increase the popularity of Raman spectroscopy in this class of materials. In this review, we outline the fields of application of Raman spectroscopy and microscopy in various electroceramic systems, defining current key bottlenecks and explaining promising recent developments. We focus our attention on recent experimental developments, including coupling Raman spectroscopy with other methodologies and modelling approaches involving both the model-based data interpretation and the ab initio calculation of realistic Raman spectra.

“…Under adiabatic conditions, the phase transition of the low-temperature R phase to the high-temperature T phase induced by a non-collinear electric field can produce a negative EC peak [25], while the T-C phase transition can produce a positive EC peak. However, some researchers who focus on the piezoelectric properties of the relaxor ferroelectric single crystal have found that there was an intermediate monoclinic (M) phase during the R-T phase transition [26][27][28][29]. If this is the case, the traditionally considered R-T phase transition process will be divided into three parts, namely, R-M phase transition, single ferroelectric M phase transition, and M-T phase transition.…”

The versatile electrocaloric (EC) behaviors of the (1-x)Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-xPT (PMN-100xPT) single crystal are closely related to the multiple phase transitions under the multiple fields of electric field and temperature. In this work, the EC effect of <001>-oriented PMN-30PT single crystals with chemical composition at morphotropic phase boundary has been studied during the phase transformation process from the ferroelectric rhombohedral (R) phase to the tetragonal (T) phase. Two consecutive negative EC peaks have been achieved for the first time. Based on the projection of the EC effect in the electric field-temperature phase diagram, the relationship between the EC behaviors and the phase transitions is further established. It was found that the monoclinic (M) phase actually existed during the transformation from the R phase to the T phase, and the related R-M phase transition and M-T phase transition could both induce negative EC peaks. Under the electric field of E = 10 kV/cm, the first negative EC peaks induced by the R-M phase transition is at 57 °C with ΔTmax = −0.11 K. And the M-T phase transition can produce a higher negative EC peak, and its value can reach −0.22 K at 68 °C. Based on thermodynamic calculations, the relationship between the entropy change in different phase transitions and the EC behaviors has been further elucidated. The negative EC effect originates from the structural entropy increase in the electric field-induced phase transition process. This work not only advances the research on the electrical properties of relaxor ferroelectric single crystals but also provides a new insight into high-performance ferroelectric materials design.

Transparent piezoelectric materials are capable of coupling several physical effects such as optics, acoustics, electricity, and mechanical deformation together, which expands applications for mechanical-electro-optical multifunctional devices. However, piezoelectricity, transparency, and Curie temperature restrict each other, so it is difficult to achieve high piezoelectricity with both good transparency and a high Curie point. In this paper, Sm-doped 24Pb(In 1/2 Nb 1/2 )O 3 -42Pb(Mg 1/3 Nb 2/3 )O 3 -34PbTiO 3 (PIN-PMN-PT) transparent ceramic with a high piezoelectric coefficient of 905 pC/N, excellent electro-optical coefficient of 814 pm/V, and high Curie-point of 179 °C is fabricated. Sm doping effect on the phase structures, piezoelectricity, ferroelectricity, optical transparency, electro-optical properties, and thermal stability is systematically investigated. Compared with PMN-PT transparent ceramics, PIN-PMN-PT transparent ceramics exhibit better temperature stability. Electro-optical modulation and energy conversion are achieved using PIN-PMN-PT transparent piezoelectric ceramic, which indicates that it has great potential to develop mechanical−electrical−optical multifunctional coupling devices for optical communication, energy harvesting, photoacoustic imaging, and so on.
