The temperature dependences of the damping constant and the relaxation time are calculated by using the Raman frequencies of a* and the lowest A(1) (TO) phonons in the ferroelectric phase close to the ferroelectric-paraelectric transition in LiTaO3 (T-C = 963 K). Both calculations are performed by considering the frequency as an order parameter for the pseudospin-phonon (PS) and the energy fluctuation (EF) models using the observed data from the literature. Values of the activation energies of this crystal are also deduced by using both models in this crystal. Our results show that the PS and EF models can describe the observed behavior adequately for the order-disorder transition in LiTaO3.

Damping constant and the inverse relaxation time calculated as a function of pressure using the X-ray diffraction data close to the cubic-tetragonal phase transition in SrTiO3
Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit (Informa UK Limited, 2019-10-01)
The damping constant is calculated as a function of pressure at room temperature using the normalized intensity as an order parameter near the cubic-tetragonal phase transition in SrTiO3. The observed X-ray diffraction data are used for the normalized intensities to calculate the damping constant () from the pseudospin-phonon (PS) coupled model and the energy fluctuation (EF) model, which is fitted to the observed FWHM data from the literature for comparison. Using the calculated values, the pressure depend...
Calculation of the Infrared Frequencies as a Function of Temperature Using the Volume Data in the Ferroelectric Phase of NaNO2
Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit (Informa UK Limited, 2014-02-17)
We calculate the temperature dependence of the infrared frequencies of the TO and LO modes with the symmetries of A(1), B-1 and B-2 mainly in the ferroelectric phase of NaNO2. This calculation is carried out using the volume dependence of the infrared frequencies through the mode Gruneisen parameter in this crystal. The volume dependences of the infrared frequencies are fitted to the observed frequencies by using constant mode Gruneisen parameter in the ferroelectric phase of NaNO2. Our results show that th...
Critical behaviour of the polarization, tilt angle, electric susceptibility and the specific heat close to the SmA-ferroelectric SmC (SmC*) phase transitions
Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit; Kilit, E. (Informa UK Limited, 2006-01-01)
This study gives the temperature dependence of the two order parameters, namely, polarization P and the tilt angle theta, when there is a biquadratic coupling P-2 theta(2) in the expansion of the Landau free energy. This applies to the electric-field-induced SmA-Ferro-Electric SmC (SmC*) phase transition. From this expansion of the Landau free energy in terms of the polarization and the tilt angle, we obtain the temperature dependence of the electric susceptibility chi and the electric field dependence of t...
Temperature dependence of the polarization and tilt angle under an electric field close to the smectic AC* phase transition in a ferroelectric liquid crystal
Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit (Informa UK Limited, 2008-01-01)
The temperature dependence of the polarization P and the tilt angle theta is calculated here in the presence of a constant electric field near the smectic AC* phase transition of a ferroelectric liquid crystal using a mean field model. We demonstrate here the temperature dependence of P and theta under some fixed electric fields for the ferroelectric liquid crystal of 4-(3-methyl-2-chlorobutanoyloxy)-4'-heptyloxybiphenyl. Our predicted values of P and theta at various temperatures under fixed electric field...
lambda-transition of NH4Cl and ND4Cl at high pressures
Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit; Sen, S. (Wiley, 2007-07-01)
We predict in this study using the mean-field theory, the phase-line equation from the free energy expanded in terms of the order parameters of solid II and III phases of NH4Cl and ND4Cl close to the X-phase transitions at high pressures. Using the temperature and pressure dependence of the coefficients given in the phase-line equation, it is shown that the experimentally observed T-P phase diagram for the solid II-solid III transition, can be predicted from the mean field model studied here for both crysta...
