Abstract: The Pb-based complex perovskite relaxor ferroelectrics (RFE) of Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3(PMN) and Pb(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O3(PZN) ceramics were prepared by conventional methods. The dynamics on microdomain-macrodomain transition of relaxor ferroelectrics was investigated by using amended local freezing glass-model. The dynamics on microdomain growth was also studied. The result shows that microdomain-macrodomain transition is a quantum transition process, while its driving forces are mainly heating force and energy force. The stability of the microdomain-macrodomain transition in RFE is judged by both the activating energy and state parameter. The stability of the microdomain growth was judged by the K value of stability.
