Abstract

Phase-modulated ellipsometry was applied to measure changes in the refractive index of pure and ruthenium (Ru)-doped 0.9Pb (Zn_1/3Nb _2/3)O₃ (PZN)-0.1PbTiO₃ (PT) during the heating process in real time. Both samples were heated from room temperature to 200 °C in a thermally insulated chamber. In both samples, the phase transitions were observed to change from tetragonal to cubic. The temperature region at which the phase transition (Curie region) of Ru-doped 0.9PZN-0.1PT occurred not only broadened but also shifted to a lower temperature. The refractive indices were extremely stable in this region, meaning that Ru-doped 0.9PZN-0.1PT is a more favorable medium for the fabrication of optical memories.
