Abstract

Proton NMR line width and spin-lattice relaxation time T 1 for the ferroelectric (CH 3 ) 2 NH 2 H 2 AsO 4 have been measured at the temperature range between 77 K and 300 K. The temperature dependence of T 1 is well described by the expressions based on rotation of the methyl group using the value of activation energy E a = 99 meV and elementary correlation time 0 = 1.5 2 10 m 13 sec. Moreover, a sharp dip of T 1 near ferrroelectric phase transition temperature ( T c = 274.5 K) results from the ordering of protons. In addition, the temperature dependence of T 1 deviates from the expression for molecular rotation above around 200 K. It is deduced that the deviation is caused by the suppression of some kind of proton motion.
