摘要
Crack growth is studied in a ferroelectric and a relaxer composition of lead lanthanum zirconate titanate (PLZT) ceramic using Vicker's indentations with electric field. The polarized ferroelectric composition displays excess crack growth perpendicular to the polarization direction. This excess crack growth is increased by an electric field in the polarization direction. The relaxor composition does not display this excess crack growth. Results suggest that the excess crack growth perpendicular to the polarization is the result of intergranular residual stress. (C) 1998 Acta Metallurgica Inc.
