Phase field method has been used to simulate the vortex structures in BaTiO3 (BTO) nanoparticles. Through the modulation of the gradient coefficients; vortices are found to transform in a path of monoclinic M A →orthorhombicmonoclinic MC →tetragonal. Although the gradient coefficients vary significantly; the change in gradient energy is remarkably small. The simulation results show that the rotation and magnitude reduction in polarization dipoles increase the bulk energy; which induces the vortex transformation process in BTO nanoparticles. Moreover; the existence of monoclinic phase is a necessity to start the polarization rotation as well as the vortex transformation process. © 2009 American Institute of Physics;
