Abstract
A comparative study of ferroelectric domain configurations and surface morphology of butterfly single crystals of by the techniques of atomic force microscopy, optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy is described. An unusual array of defects on the surface of a highly stressed region of the crystal was investigated in detail. Surface microstructural features displaying complex and distinct morphology associated with barium-rich phases were also studied.Keywords
