Abstract

Structural transition, tetragonality, and dielectric properties are investigated along with thermal and compositional expansion of lead strontium titanate in order to reveal composition dependence and structure-property relation of the ferroelectric structure. Based on the available structural and dielectric data, dielectric stiffness and temperature-dependent paraelectric cubic lattice parameters are analyzed. Non-zero sixth-order free energy coefficients are derived for strontium titanate. Spontaneous polarization, spontaneous strain, volumetric change, and dielectric permittivity are modeled as a function of composition, and the theoretical results are in agreement with experimental data reported in the literature and reveal solid solution effect.
