The application of in situ Raman spectroscopy under multiple fields is widely recognized as an effective approach for investigating the physical mechanism of phase transitions in ferroelectrics, because it can directly provide the detailed information about the vibration evolution of various phonon modes within lattices, such as bond stretching and rotation. Based on this technique, our work aims to thoroughly probe the dynamics of phase transitions in traditional ferroelectric potassium sodium niobate [(K,Na)NbO3, KNN] under external fields, by analyzing the in situ dependence of wavenumber and intensity of phonon modes under the varying temperature and electric fields. The results indicate that different vibration modes respectively relating to the A-site ions and NbO6 octahedra in KNN exhibit distinct and abrupt distortion behavior during the orthorhombic-tetragonal and tetragonal-cubic transitions. Moreover, a certain degree of distortion can still be observed in the cubic phase above the Curie temperature. With an applied electric field, KNN presents quite different electrostriction in orthorhombic and tetragonal phases. Particularly, more than one kind of phonon mode undergoes non-linear variations under the varying electric fields, accompanied by the mutations at some fixed fields. These findings will be conducive to further understanding the phase transition mechanism in KNN from the perspective of phonon evolution. Simultaneously, it will also give crucial guidance for the design and development of KNN-based ferroelectrics as well as functional devices.
