  • Title: The polarizability model for ferroelectricity in perovskite oxides.
    Author: Bussmann-Holder A.
    Journal: J Phys Condens Matter; 2012 Jul 11; 24(27):273202. PubMed ID: 22718683.
    Abstract:
    This article reviews the polarizability model and its applications to ferroelectric perovskite oxides. The motivation for the introduction of the model is discussed and nonlinear oxygen ion polarizability effects and their lattice dynamical implementation outlined. While a large part of this work is dedicated to results obtained within the self-consistent-phonon approximation, nonlinear solutions of the model are also handled, which are of interest to the physics of relaxor ferroelectrics, domain wall motions, and incommensurate phase transitions. The main emphasis is to compare the results of the model with experimental data and to predict novel phenomena.
