Abstract
A Landau–Devonshire theory in combination with Landau–Khalatnikov dynamic equation has been firstly used to study the dynamic hysteresis loop of a ferroelectric heterostructure consisting of two different films. The surface transition layer within each component film and an antiferroelectric coupling at the interface between two films are considered. A parameter β is introduced to describe the differences of physical properties between two constituent films. The influence of parameterβ, surface transition layer, antiferroelectric coupling and electric field frequency on the dynamic hysteresis loop of the ferroelectric heterostructure is discussed in detail. The results show that the system can exhibit antiferroelectriclike behavior (i.e., multi-loop hysteresis) through tuning some critical factors.
