Electric Field‐Induced Light Scattering in Eu‐Doped PMN‐PT Transparent Ceramics

Highly transparent Eu-doped Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O-3-PbTiO3 (PMN-PT) ferroelectric ceramics were obtained by a two-stage sintering method. Eu doping play a significant role in the domain structures of PMN-PT ceramics and resulted in different light scattering responses under electric field. The dielectric behaviors, ferroelectric properties, and domain configurations in the ceramics with increasing Eu doping concentration were studied, which were consistent with the electric field-induced light scattering responses.
