The photoemission characteristics of ceramic disks of lead zirconate titanate lanthanum doped (PLZT), have been investigated. We observe 1 nC of extracted charge under an accelerating field of 20 kV/cm in poor vacuum conditions. The emission is clearly limited by space charge effects. The extrapolated quantum efficiency results in ≈ 10-6. The yield of a PLZT ceramic in the ferroelectric state and its slope versus light intensity have turned out higher than those of antiferroelectric ceramic. Samples in different experimental configurations have shown different nonlinear yields. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.
