Abstract
- Results of Rietveld analysis of powder neutron diffraction data on 0.75[Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3]-0.25PbTiO3 (PMN-0.25PT) at room temperature and 80 K are presented. It is shown that the currently believed structural model based on average rhombohedral structure (space group R3m) with local <110> disordered Pb atoms cannot account for the structure of PMN-0.25PT at 80 K. The low temperature structure of PMN-0.25PT is best refined using Cm space group of MB type. It is argued that with decreasing temperature the short-range monoclinic order at 300 K grows into a truly long-range ordered monoclinic structure at 80 K. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
