量子顺电理论与介电跃迁

Theory of quantum paraelectrics and the metaelectric transition

G. J. Conduit, B. D. Simons

摘要:

提出了一个量子顺电-铁电相变的微观模型,重点讨论了耦合涨落声子模的影响。这些可以通过介电转变驱动连续相变一阶,并且进一步刺激抢占转变的织构相的出现。我们讨论了涨落的两个进一步的结果,首先是热容,其次我们表明逆顺电磁化率显示T^2量子临界行为,并且也可以采用随温度的特征最小值。最后,我们讨论了我们的结果的可观察到的后果。

英文摘要:

We present a microscopic model of the quantum paraelectric-ferroelectric phase transition with a focus on the influence of coupled fluctuating phonon modes. These may drive the continuous phase transition first order through a metaelectric transition and furthermore stimulate the emergence of a textured phase that preempts the transition. We discuss two further consequences of fluctuations, firstly for the heat capacity, and secondly we show that the inverse paraelectric susceptibility displays T^2 quantum critical behavior, and can also adopt a characteristic minimum with temperature. Finally, we discuss the observable consequences of our results.
