| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Optical birefringence imaging systems demonstrate a high potential for comprehensively investigating various phase transitions. This study is observation of the optical birefringence using imaging system under electric field and stress. Firstly, we automatically obtained corrected imaging data using the correction program via a background subtraction method. Next we developed the sample holders under electric field and stress. To completely demonstrate such abilities, the temperature dependence of birefringence was measured under high electric fields in quantum paraelectric material SrTiO3. As a result, electric field induced ferroelectric domains was observed. Furthermore, an isotopic crystal KNiF3 was also measured under stresses. Above 3 MPa, we found that the fast-axis rotated at 90 deg. and the retardation decreased to 0 at the same temperature although there are no structural and magnetic phase transitions.
