Thermal expansion properties have been measured for the ceramic lead zirconate titanate-lead zinc niobate [(1-x)PZT-(x)PZN] in the temperature range of -100 to +450 °C. For all ceramics examined, the deviations from the straight line below Burns temperature were observed. The dynamic polarization fl...
