Abstract
The pyroelectric, elastic, and electrostrictive properties of lead magnesium niobate-and barium titanate-based solid solutions were studied under a dc electric field near a phase transition. The results obtained for a relaxor transition (in a lead magnesium scandium niobate solid solution) are compared with those derived for a conventional ferroelectric transition (in a barium strontium titanate solid solution). The dielectric and electromechanical contributions to the induced pyroelectric effect are discussed.
