Influence of hydrostatic pressure on the polarization dynamics of order-disorder ferroelectrics: AgNa(NO2)2

  • Published:
Zeitschrift für Physik B Condensed Matter

Abstract

The characteristic ferroelectric dispersion of the complex dielectric constant of the ferroelectric AgNa(NO2)2 is measured as function of temperature and hydrostatic pressure. For the first time the temperature and pressure dependences of the static order parameter susceptibility and the order parameter relaxation time could be reproducibly determined. The results are interpreted in terms of a kinetic Ising model, whose parameters show a characteristic pressure dependence. The results are discussed on the basis of thermodynamic relations and related to the dynamical behaviour of other order-disorder ferroelectrics.
