Abstract

Near- and sub-Terahertz dynamics of soft and Debye-type central modes was studied by the polarized Raman spectroscopy in ferroelectric BaTiO3/Ba0.3Sr0.7TiO3 (BT/BST) superlattice in the temperature range of 80–400K where system undergoes the series of phase transitions: paraelectric-tetragonal–monoclinic in BT layers and paraelectric-orthorhombic-monoclinic in BST layers. It was shown that temperature evolution of these modes can be described within the model of coexisted damped harmonic oscillator and Debye relaxator. The occurrence of the pronounced central mode can explain the recently observed relaxor-like dielectric anomaly in such superlattice.
