3.4.3.6.4.1. Explanation of Table 3.4.3.6[link]

| top | pdf |

Table 3.4.3.6[link] presents representative domain pairs of all classes of ferroelastic domain pairs for which compatible domain walls exist. The first five columns concern the domain pair. In subsequent columns, each row splits into two rows describing the orientation of two associated perpendicular equally deformed planes and the symmetry properties of the four domain twins that can be formed from the given domain pair. We explain the meaning of each column in detail.

Ferroelastic domain pairs and twins with compatible walls

[F_1:] symmetry of [{\bf S}_1]; [g_{1j}]: twinning operations; [K_{1j}]: twinning group; Axis: axis of domain pair; Equation: direction of the axis; [\varphi ]: disorientation angle; [{\sf \overline J}_{1j} ]: symmetry of the twin pair; [{\underline t}_{1j}^{\star}]: twinning operation; [{\sf \overline T}_{1j}]: symmetry of the twin and wall, twin law of the twin; Classification: see Table 3.4.4.3[link].

The first three columns specify domain pairs.

  • [F_1]: point-group symmetry (stabilizerin [K_{1j}]) of the first domain state [{\bf S}_1] in a single-domain orientation.

  • [g_{1j}]: switching operations (if available) that specify the domain pair [({\bf S}_1,{\bf S}_j =g_{1j}{\bf S}_1)]. Subscripts [x,y,z] specify the orientation of the symmetry operations in the Cartesian coordinate system of [K_{1j}]. Subscripts [x^\prime, y^\prime ] and [x^{\prime\prime}, y^{\prime\prime}] denote a Cartesian coordinate system rotated about the z axis through 120 and 240°, respectively, from the Cartesian coordinate axes x and y. Diagonal directions are abbreviated: [p=[111]], [q=[\bar 1\bar 11] ], [r=[1\bar 1\bar 1]], [s=[\bar 1 1 \bar 1]]. Where possible, reflections and 180° rotations are chosen such that the two perpendicular permissible walls have crystallographic orientations.

  • [K_{1j}]: twinning group of the domain pair [({\bf S}_1,{\bf S}_j)]. For the pair with [F_1=m_{x\bar y}2_{xy}m_{z} ] and [K=m\bar3 m], where the twinning group does not specify the domain pair unambiguously, we add after [K_{1j}] in parentheses a switching operation [2^{\star}_{xz}] or [m^{\star}_{xz}] that defines the domain pair.

  • Axis : axis of ferroelastic domain pair around which single-domain states must be rotated to establish a contact along a compatible domain wall. This axis is parallel to the intersection of the two compatible domain walls given in the column Wall normals and its direction [{\bf h}] is defined by a vector product [{\bf h}={\bf n}_1 \times {\bf n}_2 ] of normal vectors [{\bf n}_1] and [{\bf n}_2] of these walls. Letters B and C denote components of h which depend on spontaneous strain.

  • Equation : a reference to an expression, given at the end of the table, for the direction [{\bf h}] of the axis, where parameters B and C in the column Axis are expressed as functions of spontaneous strain components. The matrices above these expressions give the form of the `absolute' spontaneous strain.

  • Wall normals : orientation of equally deformed planes. As explained above, each plane represents two mutually reversed compatible domain walls. Numbers or parameters B, C given in parentheses can be interpreted either as components of normal vectors to compatible walls or as intercepts analogous to Miller indices: Planes of compatible domain walls [Ax_1+Bx_2+Cx_3=0] and [A{^\prime}x_1+B{^\prime}x_2+C{^\prime}x_3=0 ] [see equations (3.4.3.55[link])] pass through the origin of the Cartesian coordinate system of [K_{1j}] and have normal vectors [{\bf n}_1=[ABC]] and [{\bf n}_2=[A{^\prime}B{^\prime}C{^\prime}]]. It is possible to find a plane with the same normal vector [[ABC]] but not passing through the origin, e.g. [Ax_1+Bx_2+Cx_3=1]. Then parameters A, B and C can be interpreted as the reciprocal values of the oriented intercepts on the coordinate axes cut by this plane, [[x_1/(1/A)] + [x_2/(1/B)]+[x_3/(1/C)] =1]. In analogy with Miller indices, the symbol [(ABC)] is used for expressing the orientation of a wall. However, parameters A, B and C are not Miller indices, since they are expressed in an orthonormal and not a crystallographic coordinate system. A left square bracket [ in front of two equally deformed planes signifies that the two domain walls (domain twins) associated with one equally deformed plane are crystallographically equivalent (in [K_{1j}]) with two domain walls (twins) associated with the perpendicular equally deformed plane, i.e. all four compatible domain walls (domain twins) that can be formed from domain pair [({\bf S}_1,{\bf S}_j) ] are crystallographically equivalent in [K_{1j}].

    The subscript e indicates that the wall carries a nonzero polarization charge, [\hbox{Div }{\bf P}\neq0]. This can happen in ferroelectric domain pairs with spontaneous polarization not parallel to the axis of the pair. If one domain wall is charged then the perpendicular wall is not charged. In a few cases, polarization and/or orientation of the domain wall is not determined by symmetry; then it is not possible to specify which of the two walls is charged. In such cases, a subscript [e0] or [0e] indicates that one of the two walls is charged and the other is not.

  • [\varphi]: reference to an expression, given at the end of the table, in which the shear angle [\varphi] (in radians) is given as a function of the `absolute' spontaneous strain components, which are defined in a matrix given above the equations.

  • [{\sf \overline J}_{1j}]: symmetry of the `twin pair'. The meaning of this group and its symbol is explained in the next section. This group specifies the symmetry properties of a ferroelastic domain twin and the reversed twin with compatible walls of a given orientation and with domain states [{\bf S}_1^+], [{\bf S}_j^-] and [{\bf S}_1^+], [{\bf S}_j^-]. This group can be used for designating a twin law of the ferroelastic domain twin.

  • [{\underline t}_{1j}^{\star}]: one non-trivial twinning operation of the twin [{\bf S}_1[ABC]{\bf S}_j] and the wall. An underlined symbol with a star symbol signifies an operation that inverts the wall normal and exchanges the domain states (see the next section).

  • [{\sf \overline T}_{1j}]: layer-group symmetry of the ferroelastic domain twin and the reversed twin with compatible walls of a given orientation. Contains all trivial and non-trivial symmetry operations of the domain twin (see the next section).

  • Classification : symbol that specifies the type of domain twin and the wall. Five types of twins and domain walls are given in Table 3.4.4.3[link]. The letter S denotes a symmetric domain twin (wall) in which the structures in two half-spaces are related by a symmetry operation of the twin, A denotes an asymmetric twin where there is no such relation. The letters R (reversible) and I (irreversible) signify whether a twin and reversed twin are, or are not, crystallographically equivalent in [K_{1j}].
