| Popis: | The elastic strain and crystallographic texture of a rhombohedral lead zirconate titanate ceramic have been characterised in the remanent state, after poling, using high-energy synchrotron X-ray diffraction as a function of the grain orientation psi relative to the poling direction. It is observed that the (200) diffraction peak exhibits pronounced shifts as a function of psi, indicating an elastic lattice strain, while others ({111}, {112} and {220}) show marked changes in intensity as a result of preferred ferroelectric domain orientation. It is shown that the (200) peak is not affected by the domain switching itself but rather acts like an elastic macrostrain sensor. A simple Eshelby analysis is used to demonstrate that both the elastic strain and texture vary systematically with psi according to the factor (3cos(2)psi-1). This angular dependence is evaluated through micromechanics modelling. The physical meaning of the texture variations with psi is also discussed. (c) 2006 Acta Materialia Inc.
