The temperature dependence of the phonon frequency omega(ph) and of the damping constant Gamma(sp) due to pseudospin-phonon coupling of the lowest-frequency soft mode is calculated in the ferroelectric phase near the transition temperature (T-C =196 K) in Cd2Nb2O7. Raman frequency of the soft mode is used as an order parameter which is calculated from the molecular field theory. On that basis, the damping constant is calculated by fitting the expressions from the pseudospin-phonon coupled model and the energy fluctuation model to the observed linewidth from the literature below T-C in Cd2Nb2O7. From our analysis, we find that the molecular field theory is adequate for the soft mode behaviour and that both models are also satisfactory for the divergence behaviour of the damping constant as T-C is approached from the ferroelectric phase in Cd2Nb2O7.

Damping Constant Calculated as a Function of Temperature for the Tetragonal Raman Mode Close to the Paraelectric-Ferroelectric Transition in BaTiO3 Kiraci, A.; Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit (2013-01-01) The damping constant for the tetragonal Raman peak at 308cm(-1) is calculated as a function of temperature close to the paraelectric-ferroelectric (T-C approximate to 400K) transition in BaTiO3. Expressions derived for the damping constant from the pseudospin-phonon coupled model and the energy fluctuation model are fitted to the experimental data for the bandwidths and integrated intensities of this Raman mode at various temperatures close to the paraelectric-ferroelectric transition in BaTiO3. The damping...
Calculation of the Raman and IR frequencies as order parameters and the damping constant (FWHM) close to phase transitions in methylhydrazinium structures Kurt, M.; Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit; Kurt, A. (Elsevier BV, 2019-4) Temperature dependences of the frequencies for the Raman modes of v (NH2), v(s) (CH3), v(1) (HCOO-), vs (CNN) and IR mode of rho (NH2) are calculated in particular, for MHyMn close to the phase transition temperature (T-C = 220 K) in the family of compounds CH3NH2NH2 M(HCOO)(3), MHyM with M = Mn, Mg, Fe and Zn. By assuming Raman and infrared frequency as an order parameter, this calculation is performed from the molecular field theory by using the experimental data from the literature. We also calculate the...
Calculation of the Spontaneous Polarization and the Dielectric Constant as a Function of Temperature for KH2PO4 Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit (2012-01-01) The temperature dependence of the spontaneous polarization P is calculated in the ferroelectric phase (T < T-C) of KH2PO4 (KDP) at atmospheric pressure (T-C = 122 K). Also, the dielectric constant e is calculated at various temperatures in the paraelectric phase (T > T-C) of KDP at atmospheric pressure. For this calculation of P and epsilon, by fitting the observed Raman frequencies of the soft mode, the microscopic parameters of the pure tunnelling model are obtained. In this model, the proton-lattice inte...
Calculation of the Raman frequency and the damping constant (linewidth) of the stretching modes for the metal-organic compound DMMg close to the paraelectric-ferroelectric transitions Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit (2018-01-01) We calculate the Raman frequencies of the two stretching modes of as a function of temperature close to the paraelectric-ferroelectric transition (Tc = 270K) in (CH3)(2)NH2Mg(HCOO)(3) referred as DMMg. By assuming that the Raman frequencies of those two modes which exhibit anomalous behaviour near Tc due to the ordering of the dimethlyammonium cations (DMA(+)) as observed experimentally, are associated with the spontaneous polarization (order parameter), their Raman frequencies and damping constants are pre...
Damping Constant (Linewidth) and the Relaxation Time of the Brillouin LA Mode for the Ferroelectric-Paraelectric Transition in PbZr1-xTixO3 Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit (2016-10-01) The damping constant (linewidth) of the longitudinal acoustic (LA) mode is calculated as a function of temperature using the observed Brillouin frequencies of this mode from the literature for the ferroelectric-paraelectric transition (T-C = 657 K) in PbZr1-xTixO3 (x = 0.45). For this calculation of the damping constant, the pseudospin-phonon coupled model and the energy fluctuation model are used by fitting to the observed data for the Brillouin frequencies of the LA mode in the ferroelectric (T < T-C) and...
