Abstract: | Poly- and single-crystal films of betaine phosphite deuterated to ∼20% have been grown by evaporation on NdGaO3 (001) substrates with a preliminarily deposited planar interdigital structure of electrodes. The small-signal dielectric
response in the 0.1–100.0-kHz frequency range has revealed a strong anomaly in capacitance upon the transition of the films
to the ferroelectric state. Application of a bias field brings about suppression and a slight shift of the dielectric anomaly
toward higher temperatures. The strong-signal dielectric response has been studied by the Sawyer-Tower method over the frequency
range 0.06–3.00 kHz both in the para- and ferroelectric phases. In contrast to the case of a plane-parallel capacitor, in
the planar structure studied, the dielectric hysteresis loops exhibit a very small coercivity at low frequencies, which grows
with increasing frequency. This difference should be assigned to different domain structures formed in a planeparallel capacitor
and in a planar structure in a saturating field. The growth of hysteresis with increasing frequency in a planar structure
is considered to be associated with the domain wall motion. |
