The ferroelectric (FE) betaine arsenate (BA) and the antiferroelectric (AF) betaine phosphate (BP) are structurally very closely related and mixed crystals of BAxBP1-x can be grown over the whole concentration range. The concentration (x) – temperature (T) – pressure (P) phase diagram of the system is characterized by a transition from an AF to a FE phase along with the appearance of some mixed regions on chang...
Temperature and frequency dependent hysteresis loop measurements have been carried out along the phase diagram of ferroelectric (FE) betaine at-senate (BA) and antiferroelectric (AF) betaine phosphate (BP) mixed crystal system (BA(x)BP(1-x)). Coexistence regions characterized by competing ferro- and/or antiferroelectric interactions are detected by multiple hysteresis loops.
