Abstract

A heterodyne Doppler interferometric method is used to measure the longitudinal ac strain response of lead lanthanum zirconate titanate (PLZT) ceramics while varying both the ac and the dc bias electric-field strengths. The results from the temperature and frequency dependence of the dielectric properties of a relaxor ferroelectric have provided insight into other characteristics such as electrostrictive and electro-optic behavior, which are consequences of dipole moments arising from ion displacements.
