First order transitions in perovskite ferroelectrics with oxygen octahedron tilts: Application to PZT

Abstract
A phenomenological theory for phase transitions in pervoskite ferroelectrics with oxygen octahedron tilts is worked out for first order transitions. After obtaining formal results for polarization, dielectric constant and tilt angle, the theory is applied to the lead zirconate-titanate system.
