Abstract

The influence of nonequilibrium electrons on the domain structure and switching of ferroelectrics (photodomain effect) has been investigated in ferroelectric crystals and ceramics. In the present paper, this effect is observed and explained as a result of the domain walls screening in frame ofYshibashi-Takagi theory.
