The smectic A- smectic C* (AC*) transition in a binary mixture of SCE9+SCE10 is studied at various concentrations of SCE9 near (x(c) = 0.12) and above xc (tricritical concentration). The temperature dependences of the spontaneous polarisation and the tilt angle (order parameters) are calculated using our mean field model with the bilinear and biquadratic couplings between these two order parameters. The expressions derived from the mean field model are fitted to the experimental data from the literature and the coefficients given in the free energy are determined. It is demonstrated that our mean field model explains the observed mean field to tricritical behaviour in SCE9+SCE10.

Temperature Dependence of the Tilt Angle for the Smectic A-Smectic C* Transition in a Mixture of C7-70PDOB Ferroelectric Liquid Crystals near the Tricritical Point KURT, MUSTAFA; Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit (2012-01-01) The temperature dependence of the tilt angle theta is studied in the smectic C* phase near the smectic A-smectic C* tricritical point for a mixture of 70PD0B in the ferroelectric liquid crystal C7 (X = 16.92). The mean-field models with the biquadratic P-2 theta(2) (P is the spontaneous polarization) and P-2 theta(2) + P theta (bilinear) coupling terms in the free energy expansion are used to analyze the experimental data for the tilt angle in this binary mixture. From our analysis, the coefficients given i...
Temperature dependence of the polarization, dielectric constant, damping constant and the relaxation time close to the ferroelectric-paraelectric phase transition in LiNbO3 Kiraci, A.; Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit (2017-01-01) We calculate the order parameter (spontaneous polarization) and the inverse dielectric susceptibility at various temperatures in the ferroelectric phase of LiNbO3 for its ferroelectric-paraelectric phase transition (T-C =1260 K) using the Landau phenomenological model. For this calculation, the Raman frequencies of the soft optic mode (TO1) are used as the order parameter and the fitting procedure is employed for both the order parameter and the inverse dielectric susceptibility by means of the observed dat...
Critical behaviour of the dielectric constant for the smectic AC* transition under the electric field in ferroelectric liquid crystals Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit (2012-01-01) The temperature dependencies of the dielectric constant and the tilt angle (order parameter) are calculated under the electric field for the smectic A-smectic C* (AC*) transition in 4-(3-methyl-2-chlorobutanoyloxy)-4'-heptyloxybiphenyl (A7). The dielectric constant is fitted to the experimental data by using our mean field model with the biquadratic coupling between the spontaneous polarisation P and the tilt angle theta. Our results show that the mean field model with the P-2 theta(2) coupling describes sa...
Temperature Dependence of the Brillouin Frequency Shift and the Linewidth of the LA Mode in the Ferroelectric Phase of PZT-x (PbZr1-xTixO3) Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit; KİRACI, ALİ (2015-05-27) The temperature dependence of the Brillouin frequency and the linewidth of the LA mode is studied for the concentration of x=0.45 in the ferroelectric phase of PbZr1-xTixO3 (PZT-x) within the temperature range of 443 to 656 K (T-C=657 K). Using the experimental data for the Brillouin frequency of the LA mode as an order parameter below T-C the temperature dependence of the linewidth (FWHM) is calculated by the pseudospin-phonon coupled model and the energy fluctuation model for the lead titanate zirconate (...
Temperature dependence of the specific heat of anisaldazine close to phase transitions Kilit, E.; Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit (Elsevier BV, 2008-04-15) The experimental data for the specific heat C-p is analyzed at various temperatures close to the nematic-isotropic liquid (T-NI = 180.5 degrees C) and the solid-nematic (T-SN = 168.9 degrees C) transitions in anisaldazine.
