The mechanism of domain formation in the ferroelectric Ba5Ti2O7Cl4 has been studied. It is found that, when the crystal is subjected to mechanical stress, domain structures are produced in the crystal. When these domain structures are observed under reflected light, the domain regions show linear ar...
