Abstract
The contribution of copper and indium cationic sublattices on polarization hysteresis loops in CuInP2S6 van der Waals ferrielectrics has been studied within the quantum anharmonic oscillator model that considers the ordering dynamics of Cu+ cations in the double-well local potential and displacive dynamics of In3+ cations in the three-well shaped potential. The multiple polarization states are manifested as single, double, and triple P(E) hysteresis loops. The triple loops originate from a field-induced ferrielectric to ferroelectric phase transition within a certain range of the phase diagram with continuous increase in the spontaneous polarization below the second-order transition from the paraelectric phase to the ferrielectric state.
期刊介绍:
Guided by an international editorial board, Low Temperature Physics (LTP) communicates the results of important experimental and theoretical studies conducted at low temperatures. LTP offers key work in such areas as superconductivity, magnetism, lattice dynamics, quantum liquids and crystals, cryocrystals, low-dimensional and disordered systems, electronic properties of normal metals and alloys, and critical phenomena. The journal publishes original articles on new experimental and theoretical results as well as review articles, brief communications, memoirs, and biographies.
Low Temperature Physics, a translation of the copyrighted Journal FIZIKA NIZKIKH TEMPERATUR, is a monthly journal containing English reports of current research in the field of the low temperature physics. The translation began with the 1975 issues. One volume is published annually beginning with the January issues.
