Abstract

Transparent ferroelectric ceramics (TFC) of the PLZT X/65/35 type (La- doped lead zirconate-titanate, where X is the lanthanum concentration in at.%, 65/35 is the Zr/Ti ratio) display photoconductivity [1], the photovoltaic (PV) effect [2,3] and a pronounced electrooptic effect. For this reason photorefraction (PR) is observed in prepolarized TFC in the absence of applied field throughout the ferroelectric state. In an applied field PR is observed over a wide interval of temperature around a diffuse phase transition, as well as in the ferroelectric state.
