摘要:

本文研究了法向应变、切向应变和氧空位对PbTiO_3中180 °铁电畴壁结构的影响。已知氧空位移动到畴壁并钉扎它们。因此,我们假设在PbTiO_3中的Pb中心和Ti中心畴壁上的氧空位都是周期性排列的。我们使用一个半解析的非谐晶格静力学方法获得松弛配置使用壳势。在最近的从头计算的协议,我们观察到,铅为中心的畴壁与氧空位是不稳定的,即使在应变。我们对PbTiO_3的半解析计算表明,氧空位对180 °畴壁的结构有显著影响,但对畴壁的厚度影响不大,它使畴壁加宽了约50%。我们还研究了正应变和剪应变对180 °畴壁的影响。我们观察到,正常和剪切应变影响的结构,但不改变畴壁厚度。

英文摘要:

In this paper we study the effect of normal and shear strains and oxygen vacancies on the structure of 180^o ferroelectric domain walls in PbTiO_3. It is known that oxygen vacancies move to the domain walls and pin them. Hence, we assume a periodic arrangement of oxygen vacancies on both Pb-centered and Ti-centered domain walls in PbTiO_3. We use a semi-analytic anharmonic lattice statics method for obtaining the relaxed configurations using a shell potential. In agreement with recent ab initio calculations, we observe that a Pb-centered domain wall with oxygen vacancies is not stable even under strain. Our semi-analytic calculations for PbTiO_3 show that oxygen vacancies affect the structure of 180^o domain walls significantly but do not have a considerable effect on the thickness of domain walls; they broaden the domain walls by about fifty percent. We also study the effect of normal and shear strains on both perfect and defective 180^o domain walls. We observe that normal and shear strains affect the structure but do not change the domain wall thickness.
