Abstract

The detailed studies of dielectric properties of [(CH3)2NH2]3CuCl5 single crystal were performed. Distinct anomalies of permittivity along three crystallographic direction were observed at 277.5 K and 252.7 K on cooling. The observed permittivity behaviour evidenced the first order character of both phase transitions. The hysteresis loops characteristic of a ferroelectric phase were observed in the range of temperature 277.5–252.7 K. An appearance and disappearance of spontaneous polarization confirms the first order phase transitions in this crystal. The permittivity measured along the ferroelectric a-axis under influence of external electric field in paraelectric phase showed clearly a nonlinear increase with increase of electric field intensity applied to the crystalline sample.
