Electronic Structure and Phase Transition in Ferroelectic Sn(2)P(2)S(6) Crystal
An analysis of the P(2)S(6) cluster electronic structure and its comparison with the crystal valence band in the paraelectric and ferroelectric phases has been done by first-principles calculations for Sn(2)P(2)S(6) ferroelectrics. The origin of ferroelectricity has been outlined. It was established...

description | An analysis of the P(2)S(6) cluster electronic structure and its comparison with the crystal valence band in the paraelectric and ferroelectric phases has been done by first-principles calculations for Sn(2)P(2)S(6) ferroelectrics. The origin of ferroelectricity has been outlined. It was established that the spontaneous polarization follows from the stereochemical activity of the electron lone pair of tin cations, which is determined by hybridization with P(2)S(6) molecular orbitals. The chemical bonds covalence increase and rearrangement are related to the valence band changes at transition from the paraelectric phase to the ferroelectric phase. |
