The dielectric and piezoelectric response of the Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3–xPbTiO3 (PMN–PT) polycrystalline ceramics after different poling procedures is examined and explained with respect to the phase composition and the domain structure. In the monoclinic (M) compositions a twice lower AC poling field is needed for a similar piezoelectric coefficient (d33) relative to DC poling. The high efficiency of AC poling of the M phase is assigned to its unique structure with low-angle nanodomain walls that are highly responsive to external fields and move in a ‘cascade-like’ motion, contributing to strains up to 0.5%. While the highest d33 is achieved at the morphotropic phase boundary (MPB), the dielectric permittivity of all room-temperature poled samples reached its peak on the tetragonal side of the MPB. The latter is assigned to the broadening of the MPB when poling above the inclined MPB, which can thus be manipulated by the proper poling conditions.

•AC poling of the monoclinic PMN–PT ceramics is twice more effective than DC poling.•Dielectric permittivity close to the MPB can be manipulated by the poling temperature, resulting in up to 40 % enhancement.•Monoclinic compositions exhibit up to 0.5 % field-induced strain attributed to a ‘cascade-like’ motion of nanodomain walls.
