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

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 dependence of the inverse relaxation time () is predicted close to the cubic-tetragonal phase transition in SrTiO3. Our calculated damping constant from both models explains the observed FWHM satisfactorily and our prediction of the inverse relaxation time can also be compared with the experimental measurements when they are available in the literature.

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

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...
Order-disorder transition in the ferroelectric LiTaO3
KİRACI, ALİ; Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit (Informa UK Limited, 2019-10-26)
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 ...
Raman linewidths calculated as a function of temperature in NaNO(2)
KARACALİ, HUSEYİN; Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit; Kiraci, Ali (Wiley, 2009-05-01)
The temperature dependence of the damping constant is calculated for some Raman modes in NaNO(2) using the soft mode-hard mode coupling model and the energy fluctuation model. The damping constant is fitted to the measured Raman bandwidths of those modes, which is well described by the soft mode-hard mode coupling model. The values of the activation energy are extracted from the damping constant for the Raman modes, which are much greater than k(B)T(C) = 0.04 eV for NaNO(2) close to the transition temperatu...
Correlations between Raman frequency shifts and the thermodynamic quantities close to the melting point in D2O ice
Karacali, H; Yurtseven, Hasan Hamit (Wiley, 2005-11-01)
The Raman frequency shifts (1/v) (partial derivative v/partial derivative T)(T) and (1/v) (partial derivative v/partial derivative P)(T) of the translational mode are correlated to the specific heat C-p and to the thermal expansivity alpha(p), respectively, in D2O ice. Close to the melting point, they correlate linearly, from which the values of the slope dP/dT have been deduced in D2O ice. Our calculated values of dP/dT are in very good agreement with the experimentally obtained value in this crystalline s...
