ABSTRACTLocal piezoelectric signal is measured via Piezoresponse Force Microscopy (PFM) in PbZr0.3Ti0.7O3 films and PbZr1/3Nb2/3O3-0.045PbTiO3 single crystals. It is observed that the amplitude of piezoelectric response is almost independent on frequency for vertical (out of plane) signal and strongly decreases with increasing frequency in the range 10–100 kHz for lateral (in-plane) response. Moreover, the in-plane piezoelectric contrast is reversed when the measurements are done at high enough frequency (phase shift exceeds 90°). As a result, the inplane polarization direction can be misinterpreted if the driving frequency exceeds certain level. For the explanation of observed effect a simple model is proposed that takes into account a possible slip between the conductive PFM tip and moving piezoelectric surface. The implications of the observed frequency-dependent contrast for the domain imaging in ferroelectric materials are discussed.

AbstractThe pile up patterns arising in nanoindentation are shown to be indicative of the sample crystal symmetry. To explain and interpret these patterns, complementary molecular dynamics simulations and experiments have been performed to determine the atomistic mechanisms of the nanoindentation process in single crystal Fe{110}. The simulations show that dislocation loops start from the tip and end on the crystal surface propagating outwards along the four in-plane <111> directions. These loops carry material away from the indenter and form bumps on the surface along these directions separated from the piled-up material around the indenter hole. Atoms also move in the two out-of-plane <111> directions causing propagation of subsurface defects and pile-up around the hole. This finding is confirmed by scanning force microscopy mapping of the imprint, the piling-up pattern proving a suitable indicator of the surface crystallography. Experimental force-depth curves over the depth range of a few nanometers do not appear smooth and show distinct pop-ins. On the sub-nanometer scale these pop-ins are also visible in the simulation curves and occur as a result of the initiation of the dislocation loops from the tip.
