Popis: The polarization state of a thin Pb(ZrTi)O3 film is probed by optical second-harmonic generation (SHG) while applying an external voltage (a sine wave). A hysteresis in the SHG intensity is observed that corresponds to the dielectric hysteresis and is analyzed using a phenomenological relation between the SHG intensity and the dielectric polarization. Based on this model, the polarization state of the film during polarization reversal is mapped.
