Abstract

Investigations of characteristics the ferroelectric crystals of A 2 MX 4 and AMX 3 type with incommensurate phases are very interesting both from a scientific and practical point of view. Some aspects of behaviour phase transitions of these crystals are discussed. Special attention is paid to the temperature dependence of series of different type phase transitions. Analysis of the literature data and results of our research let us to consider potential possibilities of practical applications of these materials for optoelectronic devices. Observed temperature hysteresis of birefringence and absorption coefficient in incommensurate phases are especially important for application as optical memories.
