Popis: | Landau-Devonshire free-energy expression is applied to study the dielectric hysteresis loops of a two-sublattice antiferroelectric undergoing a first order phase transition from the paraelectric phase. This expression for the antiferroelectric sublattices corresponds to the free energy expression of ferroelectric bilayers of equal thicknesses. The pattern of the dielectric hysteresis loops is characteristic of the value of temperature t relative to the three critical temperatures and the limit of field induced temperature t 2 . The interlayer coupling term J, assumed to be antiferroelectric, is also an important factor that affects the patterns of dielectric hysteresis loops. Despite their complicated appearance the dielectric hysteresis loops can be classified in terms of a small number of types of minimum. |
