We have analysed domain-wall-motion-related energy barriers, which originate from the regular discretisation grid utilised in phase-field simulations of ferroelectric materials. We develop three approaches to determine the barrier height, and we demonstrate these on a specific model of BaTiO 3 . All lead to comparable results. Finally, we show that the barrier properties for both 180◦ and 90◦ domain walls depend on the size of the discretisation step and the distance between the domain walls.
