Abstract

Thermally stimulated depolarization current (TSDC) measurements were applied to investigate BaTiO3 single crystals with <100>, <110>, and <111> orientations, and annealed under different atmospheres, respectively. The TSDC peaks related to ferroelectric domain, ferroelectric–paraelectric phase transition, TiTi′−VÖ dipole relaxation and oxygen vacancy migration were observed from the TSDC spectra. The formation of oxygen vacancy clusters in BaTiO3 single crystals leads to a high dipole activation energy. The <111> crystalline face of BaTiO3 is more stable under external field than others.
