Abstract

The mechanism of the recent discovered enhanced flexoelectricity in perovskites has brought about numerous controversies which still remain unclear. In this paper, we employed relaxor 0.68Pb(Mg2/3Nb1/3)O3 -0.32PbTiO3 (PMN-PT) single crystals for study. The observed flexoelectric coefficient in PMN-PT single crystal reaches up to 100 μC/m, and in a relative low frequency range, exhibits an abnormal frequency dispersion phenomenon with a positive relationship with frequency. Such frequency dispersion regulation is different from the normal relaxation behavior that usually occur a time delay, and hence proves the flexoelectricity acting more like bulk effect rather than surface effect in this kind of materials.
