Abstract:

The paper presents the results of quasielastic diffuse scattering of synchrotron radiation in lead zirconate titanate (PZT)single crystals. The experimental confirmation of the hypothesis of two-phase PZT near the morphotropic phase boundary in the investigated temperature range is achieved.
