The nature of an enhanced ferroelectric phase transition temperature in perovskite-based solid solutions
2004
We explain the phenomena of ferroelectric phase transition temperature $T_c$ enhancement beyond the end members in perovskite solid solutions like BiMeO$_3$-PbTiO$_3$ (Me=Sc, In, etc.) is related to nonlinear and spatial correlation effects. The explanation is based on the calculation of $T_c$ in the framework of our random field theory with additional account for nonlinear effects in the above substances. We show that the maximum of $T_c$ for certain PbTiO$_3$ content takes place when coefficient of nonlinearity is positive, the value of this coefficient is found from best fit between theory and experiment. This nonlinearity coefficient is the only adjustable parameter of the theory. We sh…
Ferroelectric thin film properties with account of metallic electrodes and depolarization field influence
2004
Within the framework of the phenomenological Ginzburg-Landau theory influence of metallic electrodes on the properties of thin ferroelectric films is considered. The contribution of the metallic electrodes with different screening length of carriers is included in functional of free energy. The influence of conventional metallic electrodes on the depolarization field and the film properties was shown to be practically the same as for superconductive ones.
<title>Correlation effects in the disordered ferroelectrics</title>
2003
ABSTRACT The calculation of the correlation radius distribution function is performed for the cases of undamped and overdamped softmode dispersion laws. Taking into account the correlation radius dependence on the random field and this field distribution function we carried out the theoretical calculation of the correlation radius distribution function dependence ontemperature, damping coefficient and random field distribution function parameters. It was shown that at temperaturehigher than Burns temperature Td the most probable value of the correlation radius is equal to its maximal valueindependently on the system disorder, while in the dipole glass state it is close to the minimal value …
Depolarization field in thin ferroelectric films with account of semiconductor electrodes
2004
Within the framework of the phenomenological Ginzburg-Landau theory influence of semiconductor electrodes on the properties of thin ferroelectric films is considered. The contribution of the semiconductor electrodes with different Debye screening length of carriers is included in functional of free energy. The influence of highly doped semiconductor electrodes on the depolarization field and the film properties was shown to be great.
Ferroelectric thin films properties: depolarization field and Landau free-energy coefficients renormalization
2002
The calculation of the polarization in ferroelectric thin films is performed using an analytical solution of the Euler-Lagrange differential equation with boundary conditions with different extrapolation lengths of positive sign on the surfaces. The depolarization field effect is taken into account in the model for a short-circuited single domain film, that is a perfect insulator. It is shown that the calculation of the polarization and other properties profiles and average values can be reduced to the minimization of the free energy expressed as a power series of the average polarization with a renormalized coefficient which depends on temperature, film thickness, extrapolation lengths, an…
Size effects of pyroelectric coefficient and dielectric susceptibility in ferroelectric thin films
2001
We calculate the pyrocoefficient, static dielectric susceptibility profiles and its thickness dependence of ferroelectric thin films. Also, the temperature dependences of above quantities have been calculated. For the calculations we use Landau phenomenological theory, leading to Lame equations. These equations subject to boundary conditions with different extrapolation length on the surfaces have been solved numerically. The divergency of pyroelectric coefficient and static dielectric susceptibility in the vicinity of thickness induced ferroelectric phase transition (i.e. at $l\approx l_c$ or $% T\approx T_{cl}$) has been shown to be the most prominent size effect in ferroelectric thin fil…
