摘要：

The domain structure of periodically poled KTiOPO4 crystals were studied on both the polar and nonpolar faces utilizing a voltage-modulated atomic force microscope. The measurements give information of domain nucleation, growth, and merging. Two different kind of overpoling behaviors have been observed depending on the magnitude of the applied field.
