Abstract
The behavior of lead zinc niobate, a relaxor ferroelectric, in electri c fields has been studied by dielectric, optical transmittance, and sm all-angle light scattering techniques. A field-induced transition from an averaged cubic to macrodomain ferroelectric phase has been found. A comparison is made with the properties Of the phase induced in lead magnoniobate, a classical relaxer. (C) 1998 American Institute of Phys ics. [S1063-7834(98)02803-2].
