Abstract: | (K0.5Na0.5)NbO3 (KNN) single crystals were grown using a high temperature flux method. The dielectric permittivity was measured as a function of temperature for 001]-oriented KNN single crystals. The ferroelectric phase transition temperatures, including the rhombohedral–orthorhombic TR−O, orthorhombic–tetragonal TO−T and tetragonal–cubic TC were found to be located at −149 C, 205 C and 393 C, respectively. The domain structure evolution with an increasing temperature in 001]-oriented KNN single crystal was observed using polarized light microscopy (PLM), where three distinguished changes of the domain structures were found to occur at −150 C, 213 C and 400 C, corresponding to the three phase transition temperatures. |
