Secondary discontinuous recrystallization as a manifestation of the effectof self-organization in niobate ferroelectric ceramics

The use of a synergetic approach in interpreting the results of experimenta l investigations of microstructure of ferroelectric ceramics based on nioba tes of alkali metals is discussed. The observed effect of a secondary disco ntinuous recrystallization is considered in terms of self-organization. It was established that by varying technological conditions one could eliminat e this phenomenon from the process of recrystallization of the niobate ferr oelectric ceramics and, thereby, improve their properties.
