Abstract

The ferroelectric transition in a two-sublattice system with an asymmetric double minimum potential is of the second or the first order according to the values of model parameters. It has turned out that the tricritical point can exist when such parameter values satisfy some conditions. Several possible phase diagrams are presented as examples, and discussed.
