Abstract:

This final report covers the work carried out under ONR Grant NOOOl4-99-0530 developing the Thermodynamic Phenomenology to describe the properties of Lead zinc niobate Lead titanate PZNPT and Lead magnesium niobate Lead titanate PMNPT single crystals, over the period May 1, 1999 to June 30, 2001. Early into these studies it became apparent that the solution grown PZNPT crystals at compositions close to the morphotropic phase boundary were more homogeneous with lower concentration gradients than the then available Bridgeman grown PMNPT so the major effort was focused upon the PZNPT family.
