Abstract

The crystal intrinsic orientation effect on the piezoelectric response of multi-domain 0.26Pb(In1/2Nb1/2)O3–0.46Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3–0.28PbTiO3 (PIN-PMN-0.28PT) crystals was investigated by coordinate transformation method. The results indicate that crystal intrinsic orientation effect plays a crucial role in determining the piezoelectric properties of multi-domain crystals. Almost 58% and 69% of the transverse piezoelectric coefficients d 31 and d 32, respectively, and 67% longitudinal piezoelectric coefficient d 33 of multi-domain PIN-PMN-0.28PT crystals poled along [011] c originate from crystal intrinsic orientation effect. For [001] c poled multi-domain PIN-PMN-0.28PT crystals, intrinsic orientation effect contributes to the transverse and longitudinal piezoelectric coefficient at least 79% and 74%, respectively.
