Preface Solid-statesystemsarefrequentlyclassifiedaccordingtotheirphysical,struc- turalorchemicalproperties.Suchschemesareextremelyhelpfulsinceprop- ertiesrelatedtoanysuchclassificationaretypicallyknownandfacilitateiden- tifyingsolidswithspecialmaterialclasses.Thebest-knownexamplesofthese schemesareconductivityorresistivitymeasurementsbymeansofwhichmet- als are easily distinguishable from insulators. However, frequently clear-cut decisionsbetweenmaterialclassesarenotpossible,sinceanisotropy,chemical composition,bindingforcesandlocaleffectswashoutdistinctpropertiesand leadtocompetitionorcoexistence. Suchunresolvedsituationsareespeciallytypicalfortransitionmetaloxides that exhibit a variety of ground-state properties in a fascinating way. Here chemicalsubstitution,doping,pressureortemperatureeffectseasilyinfluence thephysicalpropertiesandmay,forinstance,inducemetal/insulator,antifer- romagnet/ferromagnet, insulator/superconductor transitions. This situation isanalogoustoperovskiteferroelectricsandhydrogen-bondedferroelectrics, whereferroelectric/antiferroelectrictransitionsoccurwithchemicalsubstitu- tionsofoneoftheconstituentsublattices.Inaddition,glass-likestates(dipolar glasses)areobservedandrelaxorferroelectricitywithalargepotentialforap- plicationfrequentlyoccurs. Ferroelectrics and antiferroelectrics have a long history, and their phase transitionmechanismhasearlyonbeenclassifiedaccordingtoexperimental observations. In1960 softmodedynamics wereseen inperovskiteoxidesby inelastic neutron scattering, following theoretical predictions by Anderson and Cochran in 1959. A long wavelength optic mode frequency slows down withdecreasingtemperatureandfreezesoutatT .Thedisplacement pattern c oftheionsinvolvedinthesedynamicsdeterminesthelowtemperaturepolar structure. These features have been attributed to displacive dynamics and opposed to order/disorder ones where above T a specific ion many occupy c various equivalent lattice sites and hop between those. At T the ion orders c into either of these sites thus giving rise to the polar state. Both transition mechanismsarebasedonadouble-wellpotential,however,withthedistinction thatthebarrierheightforadisplacivetransitionismuchsmallerthantheone fortheorder/disordertransition. X Preface In1979ithadalreadybeen suggestedbyBruce,MüllerandBerlingerthat aclear-cutdistinctionbetweenorder/disorderanddisplacivedynamicsisnot possible. It has been pointed out that different timescales may be associated with the different dynamics and that specifically EPRexperiments would be an excellent probe to test these ideas. EPR is a local probe and can as such test dynamics associated with cluster formation whereas X-ray and neutron scattering experiments only probe the long wavelength average properties. EventhoughtheirsubsequentEPRexperimentsindeedprovidedevidencefor order/disorder dynamics in BaTiO and SrTiO , these observations induced 3 3 acontroversysinceotherexperimentswereinsupportofthedisplacivepicture. This controversial situation could be resolved theoretically by showing that bothdynamicscancoexistondifferenttimescales.Whilethelongwavelength propertiesaredominatedbymodesoftening,thefinitemomentumexcitations exhibitorder/disorderdynamics. Eventhoughthisapproachhasbeenacceptedrapidlyforperovskiteferro- electrics,itremainedunclearinhowfaralsohydrogen-bondedferroelectrics needed a novel classification scheme. Since ferroelectricity was first exclu- sively discovered in hydrogen-bonded systems, the obvious conclusion was thatthehydrogenbondsareactivelyinvolvedinthephasetransitionmecha- nism. The observationthat the protonsoccupya double-wellpositionabove T hassupported theassumption thatthedynamicsareorder/disordertype, c where a spontaneous cooperative freezing of the protons into either of the twositestakesplaceatT .Theincompletenessofthisapproachbecameclear c through high-resolution X-ray diffraction experiments which revealed that T correlates with the oxygen–hydrogen–oxygen bond length. This finding c has initiated theoretical work where a new approach was made in order to understand the dynamical details of hydrogen-bonded ferroelectrics. Here aspects that are important in perovskite ferroelectrics, i.e., nonlinear polar- izabilityeffects,havebeencombinedwiththedetailsofthehydrogenbonds. As aconsequence acoupleddouble-wellproblemwasintroduced where dis- placive features related to the heavy ion sublattice are combined with the order/disorderdynamicsofthehydrogenbonds.Thepredictionsofthemodel weresoontestedbyultra-highresolutionNMRexperimentsandaverification of the coexistence achieved. In contrast to perovskites, here the combined dynamicsobeythesametimescales. Sincetheissueoforder/disorderversus(orwith)displaciveaspectshasre- mainedanactivefieldofresearch,mostofthechapterspresentedinthisbook are devoted to it. In addition, new fields of applications are reviewed, since material optimization has considerably enlarged this area. A new aspect of ferroelectricityhasbeendiscoveredrecentlybythefindingofisotope-induced ferroelectricity in the quantum paraelectric SrTiO . Here conclusive ideas 3 aboutitsmicroscopicoriginarestillmissingandalsotheexperimentalsitua- tionremainscontroversial,sincethesymmetryofthelow-temperaturephase is unclear. But, there seems to be stringent evidence that polar clusters are Preface XI formedfaraboveT .SimultaneouslyRamanscatteringexperimentsreportthe c observation ofa softmode. Bothofthese findings again support the picture ofacoexistenceoforder/disorderanddisplacivedynamics. Themicroscopic originofrelaxorferroelectricityisanotheropenprobleminthismaterialclass. Eventhoughvariousphenomenologicalapproacheswereabletoreproduce some aspects of these interesting materials, microscopically no understand- ing is achieved. Novel neutron spectroscopic methods are presented in one ofthechaptersinthisbook,wherehintsforthemicroscopicmechanismcan be obtained. It seems clear that far above the smeared-out transition point, fluctuating polar domains are formed that increase in size with decreasing temperature. Even though mostly a polar instability is absent, very high di- electricconstantsareobservedwhichextendoverbroadtemperatureregimes. These specifics make the material extremely interesting for applications and haveconsiderablyenlargedtheinterestinthem.ThepropertiesofSlater–Takagi groupsandtheirmovementswithinhydrogen-bondedferroelectricsarealso reviewedinthisbook.Here,thefocusisespeciallyontheregimewhereapolar glassisrealizedashasbeenobservedinmixedcrystalsofRDPandADP.The competitionbetweenferroelectricityandantiferroelectricityinducesthisstate andleadstofrustrationatcertainmixinglevels. Althoughferroelectricsandantiferroelectricshavealonghistory,thepresent book shows that in spite of considerable experimental and theoretical work thefieldremainsfullofsurprisesandnewchallenges.
