Reconstruction of the ferroelectric domain structure morphology in BaTiO3 single crystals using Cerenkov-type second harmonic generation microscopy

resumo

Domain structure arising as a result of surface polishing in the bulk of barium titanate BaTiO3 single crystal was imaged by polarized optical microscopy and Cerenkov-type second harmonic generation (CSHG) microscopy, which allowed distinguishing between 90 degrees and 180 degrees domain walls. 3D-morphology of different domain patterns in the bulk was recovered using CSHG images. The domain structure represented the stack of the intermitting needlelike a-domains with charged domain walls rarely crossed by the zigzag domain patterns with 180 degrees walls. The used experimental technique can be used for understanding the domain kinetics in the multiaxial crystals.
