The composition dependent variation of ferroelectric domain structure in lead zirconate titanate (Pb(Zr0.52Ti0.48)O3) ceramics have been investigated within the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB). Tetragonal phase in sintered samples were identified via X-ray diffractometry (XRD). Representative microstructures of ferroelectric domains were examined using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). £\-boundaries, £_- boundaries, and £k-boundaries were analyzed from the contrast of extreme fringe patterns by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Twin planes for 90o domains lie in {011) and for 180o domains lie in {100) and {220) were determined by selected area diffraction patterns (SADP). Traditional contrast analysis was adopted for determining displacement vectors (R). 90o domains with R = £`[011] and 180o domains with R = n[001]. Convergent beam electron diffraction (CBED) was performed to identify crystalline phases of different domain configurations. By examined the symmetry along the Z = [100], [110], and [111] zone axis, both £_-boundaries and £k-boundaries are tetragonal phase.
